Trump: 'I Don't Regret Anything' About Khan Family Attacks

Source: Talking Points Memo

Donald Trump on Tuesday said that he has no regrets about launching repeated attacks on the parents of a deceased Muslim American soldier who spoke at the Democratic convention.

"I don't regret anything. I said nice things about the son, and I feel that very strongly," he told Washington, D.C., television station WJLA. "But of course I was hit very hard from the stage, and you know it's just one of those things, but no, I don't regret anything."

Despite criticism from Democrats, Republicans, and his own campaign surrogates, Trump has refused to apologize for lashing out at the Khan family.

Exact same words Ryan used back in the spring when asked about endorsing Trump.

He is incapable of empathy and believes that he can do no wrong. I doubt very much that the man has ever issued an apology to ANYBODY in his entire life. Just the sight of him makes me physically ill.

Almost attacking that Mother speaking out at the pence rally and seeing them at rallies. They remind me of the pictures of people at Lynchings. Cheetos supporters are the one we need to be wary of when he loses. At least we will know who the psychopaths are in our communities.

Yes, you were, by being asked if you have ever read the Constitution -- the next logical question being why you're ready to rip it up. But the question seems to have hit a nerve and provoked a toxic reaction that might well make it a fatal blow.
