From the Washington Post, in an article about the firestorm surrounding Donald Trump’s vile attacks on Gold Star parents Khizr and Ghazala Khan:
It’s also possible that the controversy could help Trump, at least among those considering supporting him, if voters begin to see it as another example of elite-driven political correctness by the media and political establishment.
Let’s review:
- Trump suggested that Mrs. Khan was not allowed to speak at the Democratic Convention, probably because she’s a Muslim doormat.
- Trump compared the loss of their son, Capt. Humayun Khan, to the “sacrifices” he has made as a businessman.
- Trump finally gets around to saying he’s sorry about their loss a day later, but notes that Humayun died 12 years ago, apparently code for “get over it.”
- Trump says that he was “viciously attacked” by Mr. Khan and that he’s allowed “to respond” (by insulting his wife and demeaning their son’s life).
Elite-driven political correctness, Washington Post? Seriously?
Go to hell.
