Well, If McCain is a war hero,,is Bowe Bergdahl also a war hero? Since he was a also captured by the enemy and a POW ..

Since, you are new to the Politics Forum (by the way.. welcome to the Forum ) I'll give you a one time mulligan.....the bar and standard was already set low by the Democrats in 2008 when McCain was running for President ..
A widely read liberal blog at the time Americablog.com's John Aravosis wrote : ''A lot of people don't know ... that McCain made a propaganda video for the enemy while he was in captivity,' ....'Getting shot down, tortured and then doing propaganda for the enemy is not command experience."
The same year,, fmr.editor of the liberal Mother Jones magazine, Jeffrey Klein, wrote:
"Some of the unreleased pages in McCain's Navy file may not reflect well upon his qualifications for the presidency."
"From day one in the Navy, McCain screwed-up again and again, only to be forgiven because his father and grandfather were four-star admirals. McCain's sense of entitlement to privileged treatment bears an eerie resemblance to George W. Bush's."
In fact it looks like Trump was echoing Al Franken (D-Mn) of 15 years ago: "I don't buy the war hero thing. Anybody can be captured."
In fact, today McCain himself came out on "Morning Joe" program and agreed with Trump ..“I’m not a hero,”.. “But those who were my senior ranking officers … those that inspired us to do things we otherwise wouldn’t have been capable of doing"
So, you see Trump did not set the limbo low bar ..it was already set very low by liberals..the same one's,that now are saying Trump's statement is soooo appalling ..
By the bye newbees to the Politics forum have to declare who they align with..,,obviously it's not "The Donald" ..who is it ?
Ben Carson ?
