    That's before he spent a lot of time with Paula White and Robert Jeffress.

    Come to think about it, a 7-year-old can behave at a funeral. Therefore, I withdraw my comment about not imagining the hedonistic Trump at a solemn event such as a funeral.

    Well, if I were McCain's family, I would greatly dislike Mr. Trump, too. He mocked McCain's being a POW.

    Trump said, "He's [only] a war hero because he was captured. I like men who don't get captured." If that were said about my father, I would be hard pressed to have any good or kind feelings towards Trump.

    I have a hard enough time with good and kind feelings towards him as it is. And yes, I voted for him.

    I don't think there is any danger that any President will be attending your funeral. :Thumbsup

    The article said that Trump did not regret saying McCain is not a war hero. The way that Trump is always picking fights with other people reminds me of what was said about Ishmael:

    “He shall be a wild donkey of a man, his hand against everyone and everyone's hand against him” Genesis‬ ‭16:12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    It is not surprising. John McCain is a true American hero. He may had his faults. But Trump will never be the kind of man McCain is and devoted his whole entire life and career to service. Government and military. And being a POW is being held against you will. He was there for five years and beaten and tortured and survived it.

    Nope. I would gladly welcome Donald Trump into my house, offer him a meal, and share with him the wonderful gospel of God’s grace and mercy that is available all of us sinners through the finished work of Jesus Christ.

    Trump's comment was a follow up after McCain said people at Trump's rally are "crazies". One comment is as disgusting as the other.
