He's a hero in my book.
You'd have to be a narcissistic, megalomaniac, blow hard to deny John McCain is a war hero.
Amen, and let me follow up by say we all know what Trump said and we all know he meant it.

Well that's where it gets a little tricky. He actually said several different things in a 3 minute span...so we don't really know what he meant, do we?
“Not a war hero.”
“He is a war hero.”
“He’s a war hero because he was captured.”
“He’s a war hero, because he was captured.”
“I believe, perhaps, he’s a war hero. But right now, he’s said some very bad things about a lot of people.”
I think what he really meant was he doesn't like John McCain. He should have just said that.

Is Forkie going to clarify what I lied about regarding the IRS? If he will confirm this, I will provide the simple mathematical calculations along with supporting documentation from the official IRS annual report, adjusted for inflation of course. I'm willing to provide you this again.
Forkie, I'm waiting.

Not tricky to me. He meant it. When he said “He’s a war hero because he was captured.” he was being sarcastic.
The other thing that is so effin snarky is the comment "I like people that weren't captured". IOW I like people smart enough not to get captured.
People can spin this anyway they want but Trump is coming across like Joe Cowboy and the conservatives are sucking it up.
I hope he wins the primary because just like Palin it will assure a Democrat president.
Here is the transcript. Check out the last paragraph. The word "perhaps" says it all
Luntz: "He’s a war hero. He’s a war hero …"
Trump: "He’s not a war hero ..."
Luntz: "He’s war hero."
Trump: "He is a war hero ..."
Luntz: "Five and half years in a Vietnamese prison camp …"
Trump: "He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured. So he’s a war hero …"
Luntz: "Do you agree with that?"
Trump: "He’s a war hero, because he was captured, okay? I believe, perhaps, he’s a war hero. But right now he said some very bad things about a lot of people. So what I said is John McCain, I disagree with him that these people aren’t crazy."
