Again with the personal childish attacks on people, and no decent explanation as to why it was not disrespectful. Putting people down and no explanation as to why it was not disrespectful.
Hilarious.
1. Clearly you do not know what a personal attack is as I provided none.
2. I do not have to refute your claim tha tit was disrespectful. You are the one who needs to show it was, thus far no one has been able to show that it was.
Let me clue you into something. The LTC who gave him his award sure didn't think it was disrespectful. So why do you think it was? Huh!
His opinion is what matters. Not yours.


And finally something we agree on, I could also give a flying hoot what you think.
Hilarious. That is not being in agreement with me.
If you were in agreement with me, you wouldn't care what you said either.


I if you do not have the decency to respond to someone in person.
Respond in person? WTF? Stop making things up to complain about.
I quoted you just like I quoted everyone else and I even bothered to separate it from the others.



PS. I pay attention, I just disagree with your claim that it was respectful because that opinion is purely based on pro-Trump ideologies and ideas rather than on the true nature of Trump's comment.
No you don't pay attention and no you do not know what it is based on.
Did the LTC find it disrespectful? Who are you to tell him it was?

Why would i care what that LTC thinks? It is my opinion that he was disrespectful or do you not understand the notion of opinions? You may be of the opinion that he was not disrespectful, but I clearly am of the opinion that he is disrespectful and disgusting (well, Trump is disgusting all of the time but that is a different issue).

I agree with this actual recipient of the purple heart Vet Raises Money To Help Donald Trump Earn His Own Purple Heart.

He says that if Trump wants one (an actual one because he did not get a purple heart, he was gifted a purple heart) he should go to a war zone and earn one. He is even starting a GoFundMe page so that the ticket can be paid to send him to that war zone.
 
Many a competent soldier have dreamed of earning one. Or in other words; "Wanting one".

Only the ones who never saw combat.

But let's not give up hope! There's a gofundme page right now with the goal of helping Donald Trump EARN a Purple Heart:

On 2 August 2016, a veteran handed Donald Trump a Purple Heart medal at one of his rallies in Virginia. Making light of a military decoration awarded to combat-wounded service members just days after attacking a fallen soldier’s family, Trump remarked “I've always wanted to get the Purple Heart. This was much easier.”

As with seemingly everything else in his life, Mr. Trump got one handed to him instead of earning it. That being said, as a Purple Heart recipient [proof ] who earned one the old-fashioned way by returning from Afghanistan one leg lighter, I fully endorse his desire to earn one and would happily oblige his interest in doing so, by being one of the first to chip in to fly him to the conflict zone of his choosing. After all, you're never too old to follow your dreams.


The site actually gets serious afterwards, but you get the point...and it's garnered 560 individual donations so far.
 
Why would i care what that LTC thinks?
Because it was his medal and he did the gifting.
And yes, your personal opinion is meaningless to that.


It is my opinion that he was disrespectful or do you not understand the notion of opinions? You may be of the opinion that he was not disrespectful, but I clearly am of the opinion that he is disrespectful and disgusting (well, Trump is disgusting all of the time but that is a different issue).
And there you have it. Everyone knows that is your opinion.

You are the one arguing that it is disrespectful yet have not been able to show it actually is.

You agree with another hater, doh, go figure.
I mean like really, iLOL, who would of thunk?

No, not only those who never saw combat.

Yes I get the point. Idiotic haters do idiotic hater things.

What an absurd way of responding to people, chucking in several people in one post is just ridiculous.

And FYI, lame? I am sorry, but you must have been thinking of your response ;)

But seriously, if you think saying "I always wanted a Purple Heart, this way is easier" is respectful towards those who have earned it the hard way (by serving their country, risking their lives and getting injured) is respectful, than you do not know what respectful is IMO.

IMO, too.
