Trump: Fallen Service members are "losers"

Fake news...

Buuuut... On another note... how was McCain a war hero? Fellow visitors of the Hanoi Hilton have said he helped the enemy... though who really knows, it was a long time ago. I mean, people still like Jane Fonda even though she got a lot of US soldiers killed by her stupid comments.

Being captured doesn't make you a war hero, by the way. It just makes you a POW. This is a war hero, just so you're aware of the difference https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Benavi...May%202%2C

From that

At one point in the battle an NVA soldier accosted him and stabbed him with his bayonet. Benavidez pulled it out, yanked out his own knife, killed him and kept going, leaving his knife in the NVA soldier's body. After the battle, he was evacuated to the base camp, examined, and thought to be dead. As he was placed in a body bag among the other dead in body bags, he was suddenly recognized by a friend who called for help. A doctor came and examined him but believed Benavidez was dead. The doctor was about to zip up the body bag when Benavidez managed to spit in his face, alerting the doctor that he was alive.[5](see medal citation below) Benavidez had a total of 37 separate bullet, bayonet, and shrapnel wounds from the six-hour fight with the enemy battalion
