Day 1668: "You have sacrificed nothing!"

Mr. and Mrs. Khizir Khan,  Muslim Americans who immigrated from Pakistan many years ago, addressed DT directly on the final day of the Democratic convention and made a powerful impact.  They spoke of their son, Captain Humayan Khan, who died in Iraq saving his company from a truck filled with explosives. For his sacrifice, he was posthumously awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart

In response to DT's call to prevent Muslims from entering the US, Mr. Khan said, "Have you even read the US Constitution?  I will gladly lend you my copy....You have sacrificed nothing and no one."

I listened to an interview with the Khans this evening and was brought to tears by their pain and grief.  But even more moving was their commitment to taking a stand against his prejudice and xenophobia, his cruelty and sadism.  They said it is a moral imperative to repudiate Trump and called upon McConnell and Ryan to condemn DT. There is too much at stake.

Their interview was followed by one with Tony Schwartz  who was the ghost writer for Trump's book, The Art of the Deal. His assessment of DT?  A sociopath.  No feelings at all.  A blackhole hungering for recognition.

Then today, DT may have leaked information from his first national security briefing.  What the hell is he doing?  He is incredibly dangerous to this nation and the world.
