I wonder why the same standard hasn't been applied to Gold Star family members Patrcia Smith and Charles Woods? The liberal left "In The Tank For Hil Clinton" media, as well as Ms. Clinton herself have surely been disrespectful toward both families.
With regard to Trump, I thought he was quite respectful toward the Khan family. I do think it's a valid point regarding Ms. Khan. She is chattel in the Islamic community, and Americans need to be made aware of that.
