Trump vs. McCain

Captplaid

The more I think about it, I don't really like McCain. Partly glad somebody has the balls to say it. There is just 1 point I disagree with Trump but actually admire home for going after McCain.

The whole Vietnam War was started over The Gulf Of Tonkin incidence in 1964 that was a false flag attack! Now the people who faithfully served to fight over there deserve our respect however they where mislead.

In his 2001 article, an elaborate piece of detective work, Mr. Hanyok wrote that 90 percent of the intercepts of North Vietnamese communications relevant to the supposed Aug. 4, 1964, attack were omitted from the major agency documents going to policy makers.

"The overwhelming body of reports, if used, would have told the story that no attack had happened," he wrote. "So a conscious effort ensued to demonstrate that an attack occurred."

Edwin E. Mo?se, a historian at Clemson University who wrote a book on the Gulf of Tonkin incident, said the agency did the right thing in making public Mr. Hanyok's damning case. "A lot of people at the agency haven't been happy that communications intelligence was used to support a wrong conclusion," he said.

We may agree or disagree on McCain's politics. It is inconceivable to me that anyone would question the honor, courage or commitment he brought to his time in uniformed service. Dissing someone because his horse was shot out from under him and he had no choice but to dismount immediately is simply beyond the pale. Especially when the sentiment is spoken by a draft dodging scumbag.

i so dislike John McCains politics. His service to this country should never be questioned.

Agree, but he has spent the last several years as a "dis-service" to his country.

I never really understood him,until he ran for Potus...The only real thing he did was give up his ticket for home,when he could have had an early release from Hanoi...

I liked John McCain many years ago. Then I got to know him better. He talks tough but he has no depth and no commitment. He doesn't understand economics or Border Security (need more than a fence!). He gives no more than lip service to Veteran's issues. His votes do not match his mouth.
