The scriptures to say to forgive our brothers and sisters if we want to be forgiven. That goes without question.

What the last few pages is really questioning is if Trump attacking POW's is justified because one POW, in particular, offended Trump by name calling the people attending his rally. Correct me if I'm wrong brother, but it sounds like you don't think there is no need for Trump to apologize for his sentiments about POW's because McCain (only one POW) insulted him and his supporters?

That would be as illogical as a Black person killing a cop in Dallas because of what a cop in Minnesota may have done to another Black man. This isn't to say that what Trump said in regard to being captured (POW) is on the level of wrongness as killing a cop, but it is to say it follows the same illogical thinking.

Perhaps the press should apologize for goading him.

A fair question to ask is: If a former Republican nominee can cause Trump to put down brave men/women POW's because his feelings were hurt, what a truly evil and powerful enemy could make Trump say and more importantly do...

We don't know, but we do know that Hillary Clinton sold her soul by giving her blessing to same-sex marriage, and she deleted 30,000 emails before turning her server over to the government.

If you were running for president and some famous guy like John McCain started poking fun at the people who supported you, maybe you would have felt an obligation to defend your supporters.

The press should not only apologize, but stop being partial to the presidential candidates, I agree.

Nevertheless, the press isn't running for president and the press doesn't need to unite the Republican party. On the contrary, they want to divide it as much as possible and Trump is playing into their hand with comments about POW's.

I agree again with you brother. However, you're kind of derailing your own thread if you created it to talk about the biased press/Trump. I'm not sure what Hillary has to do with this specific issue or the subtopic of Trump and McCain.

He did make a bad comment about POW's, though I think it was the heat of the moment. He'd be better of to apologize for what he said.

I'm not saying EVERYTHING Donald said was taken out of context, though this if the first time I'd heard of this.

Yes I agree,but when running for POTUS,feelings need be appropriately displayed as a grown-up,like a big brother and not like an emotional wreck.

You will see It on the news,I'm talking about the prisoners being released and Iran getting 400 million In cash.

Donald said he saw a video of It but now his people can't produce the video.

I do have to agree that he could do with reigning it back a little. He is making it look like any foreign leader could goad him into just about anything, simply by poking at him a little.

You mean like how Iran goaded Obama into putting them onto the path of a nuke?

Our enemies learn to play upon the weaknesses of each of our "leaders" as they have to deal with them. I think the trick is not to make those weaknesses such easy targets for them.
