"I like people who weren't captured."
While he was directing his comment in context towards McCain, his comment stung towards anyone who may have been captured on the battlefield.
So regardless of what one might think about John McCain or the GOP, it's just a completely shitty thing to say.
It fits Trump's M.O. though. He's always talking about "winners" and "losers."
He'll happily identify himself as a "winner" despite having multiple business failures over his career. I guess being able to insulate his own personal wealth while thousands of his employees lost their jobs makes him a "winner" in his own mind.
And anyone who dares to cross his path will inevitably be identified as a "loser" by Trump on his rambling Twitter feed.
So in Trump's idiotic, feeble little mind, servicemen who manage to avoid capture might be the winners. Those who are captured and held as POWs, however, are the losers.
Donald Trump is a horrible, horrible human being.
