Couldn't be true, could it? Could a person make such a clueless, ironic, self-canceling statement and be serious? Surely someone made it up.
Nope.
Donald Trump, unable to stop beating a dead horse and ride it into the setting dawn, had this to say about Mr. Khan, the Gold Star father who spoke at the DNC:
"While I feel deeply for the loss of his son, Mr. Khan who has never met me, has no right to stand in front of millions of people and claim I have never read the Constitution, (which is false) and say many other inaccurate things. If I become President, I will make America safe again."No need to point out the obvious obliviousness. It loquiturs the res gooder'n I could ipsa. But, just to frost the chickens on their roost, I must point out that Mr. Khan did not accuse the leader of the Republican Party of never having read the Constitution. He asked if he had. And as long as we're loquituring, how 'bout sequituring? What do his preceding claims have to do with "making America safe again?"
Also, I think we all know he couldn't give less of a shit about the man's son.
In the same conversation, as has been reported, he also accused the NYT of not being able to write good.
