"You're (trump) not fit to polish John McCain's boots," railed retired Navy admiral John Hutson.
This in response to trump's comment on John McCain "I like people who weren't captured." I think we can presume that trump likes himself since the Great Man was not, in fact, captured due to the fact that he received four rich boy "bad feet" draft deferments.
It looks like the Democrats aren't having difficulty filling up their convention hall ......... unlike the trump fest that featured a lot of empty seats and early departures.
Then there was Michael Bloomberg's great takedown of trump:
"Let’s elect a sane, competent person,” he said.
The normally soft-spoken owner of Bloomberg financial-news service excoriated his fellow New Yorker, labeling him a “dangerous demagogue,” a hypocrite, a con, and—slashing at the core of Trump’s self-worth—a horrible businessman.
“Throughout his career,” Bloomberg said in his prime-time address. “Trump has left behind a well-documented record of bankruptcies and thousands of lawsuits and angry shareholders and contractors who feel cheated and disillusioned customers who feel ripped off. Trump says he wants to run the nation like he’s run his business. God help us!”
