Decency Matters

It was July of 2015 that Donald Trump trashed John McCain the first time.  I was deeply offended at the time that Trump trashed a war hero, a national hero, as well as a personal hero to me.  That was the line in the sand for me — it was then crystal clear to me that Donald Trump was unfit to be President of the greatest country on Earth!

I am still deeply offended by Trump’s treatment of McCain.  When McCain’s death was announced, the White House issued the standard best wishes to the family.  Trump still hasn’t demonstrated the decency to apologize.  What kind of man is Trump?  Certainly, he is not half as much a man as John McCain and never will be!!

Decency matters!
