As Donald Trump continued to hurl attacks on the family of U.S. Army Captain Humayun Khan, President Barack Obama praised the sacrifice of American armed services members and their families Monday at the Disabled American Veterans convention.
“As Commander-in-Chief, I’m pretty tired of some folks trash-talking America’s military and troops,” Obama said in a thinly-veiled rebuke of Trump.
The President also said Gold Star families, who have lost a loved one in armed combat, “have made a sacrifice that most of us cannot begin to imagine,” and called them “the very best of our country. They continue to inspire us every day, every moment.”

What a horrible day when the President has to remind us of this.
You know, if Trump thinks McCain is a “loser” for allowing himself to be captured; what then must he think of a soldier who “allows himself to be killed”??
And, sorry President Obama, Trump doesn’t do humble.
Donald Trump:
And now he wants to be a fake President.
Perceptive and eloquent as always, Mr. President.
I’m gonna miss your presence in the White House. Hopefully, Madame President will take up where you left off.
It’s a shame that Obama can’t have Trump arrested as an unregistered agent of both Russia and ISIL.
