In typical Trump fashion, the Republican presidential nominee over the weekend lashed out against the Muslim parents of an Iraq War veteran killed in action; further insulted the soldier’s mother by invoking a Muslim stereotype; and demeaned all families who have lost loved ones in combat, calling his hard work, success and charitable giving comparable sacrifices.
In what has been called the most powerful speech given at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia last week, Khizr Khan, with his wife Ghazala Khan standing beside him, passionately admonished Trump for his hateful rhetoric, religious intolerance and overall disrespect of communities and cultures. He also told Trump: “You have sacrificed nothing and no one.”
