'Cause his father is outright PISSED at Trump and won't go near him, much less talk to him.

I can't condemn her because she's probably half out of her head. I'm sure her FIL is plenty dissapponted. I wonder if he decided to speak out because he knew she was doing this?

about a month after their daughter was killed due to gun violence. Clinton brought two widows of police officers killed in the line of duty and the father of a kid killed in the Columbine shooting. This is nothing new, nor is it limited to Republicans.

Sad but not uncommon for in laws and spouses to have conflicts. Clearly his father wanted nothing to do with being a fascist prop. Meanwhile the wife's all about it.

dumb trumpsters not to associate it with all of the failings of the operation. Also, it as been all over the news about the Seal's father. This SOB Prez wouldn't even watch it or participate in the analysis, but he uses the widow as a prop! He has no morals. Hypocrite.
