Default Why the silence from JohnH?

Why did you and Krause give Al Franken a pass?

When Senator McCain was running for the White House in 2000, comedian/author Al Franken made comments very similar to Trump's. This happened before Franken was selected to the U.S. Senate.

"I have tremendous respect for McCain but I don't buy the war hero thing," Franken said at the time. "Anybody can be captured. I thought the idea was to capture them. As far as I'm concerned he sat out the war."

Franken's thoughts were part of a post on Salon.com in January of 2000 in a story titled, "What's at Stake in the 2000 Elections?"

Good question. I'm sure Harry will say you're not 'entitled' to a response 'cause
he's not got the balls to make one.

Fraken is a comedian and he made it clear it was a joke. Later McCain
and he did the joke again on a TV show.

I do believe this may be fatal for trump. He had the chance to recover
and he doubled down on the insult.
I am not sure he even understands what the hero part came from.
It wasn't being shot down or even the years in captivity. It was
turning down the chance to be released. McCain said if the rest can't
go, he wasn't going.



"Fatal for Trump."

Hilarious from any and every point of view.

Why is that? I don't mean he will die or even that the TV networks
will never hire him again. I just think that if he doesn't do
something to walk back this John McCain thing his presidential bid
will fail ... at least without significant democratic support.
That is still a possibility tho.


I wasn't thinking that you meant Trump would die. Trump appeals to the
haters because he says awful things about people and groups of people.
In 'Merica, that sort of posturing by a political figure seems to have
staying power...ala Sarah Palin, for example.

I only *hope* he gets the GOP nomination or decides to run as an
Independent; I don't believe either of those outcomes will happen. But
no matter what Trump decides to do, I don't believe he'll settle back
and STFU. He's going to have a negative impact on GOP presidential
chances. Thankfully.

Oh, and Bernie Sanders has already stated he wouldn't run as an
Independent. I'm sure he'll keep his word.

What part of Trump's message do you think Democrats would support?


===

Working class folks might very well support his anti-immigration
stance.


Working folks don't want the jobs illegal immigrants take. The only
overlap might be in the construction industry and those guys are
already scraping the IQ barrel from breathing portland cement dust.
Which means they're voting Republican already. If they're part of the
trades, they don't hire illegals for union gigs.

Do you screen the illegals that you hire?

He is like Harry. He can't be bothered, it is not his job.


I employ highly educated Americans, be they immigrants or natural
born. I don't run a factory or a job site or a farm.

Sounds like you've been breathing the fairy dust.
