Donald Trump shocked the nation on Saturday with his comments about Senator John McCain’s war service. McCain, who served in the Vietnam war, was captured and repeatedly tortured in the Hoa Lo Prison sarcastically known as the “Hanoi Hilton.” Trump received five deferments during the war, meaning that he did not have to join the service. In his remarks about McCain, Trump said “He is not a war hero.” The host of the session responded, “He is war hero,” before Trump cut him off by saying “He is a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured, OK? I hate to tell you. He is a war hero because he was captured. OK you can have — I believe perhaps he is a war hero.” Trump later went on Twitter to clear up the anger he received for his comment, tweeting “Captured or not, all our soldiers are heroes!” Many of his Republican opponents, who have stayed quiet on their opinions of Trump’s previous inflammatory comments, showed their disapproval of what Trump said on Saturday. Do you think Trump’s statement is going to make him less popular on the polls?
