So...because Trump never had to sacrifice, this then gives Khan the right to jump all over him.. I wonder who in the "demoncrat" party wrote his speech or at the least suggested the subject matter ? What was expected ? Should Trump have had one of his sons throat slit so he will have "sacrificed" ?


Father of Fallen Muslim American War Hero to Trump: “You Have Sacrificed Nothing!”   By Jeremy Stahl

One of the finest and most damning addresses of the Democratic National Convention was delivered on Thursday night by one of the event’s lowest profile speakers. Khizr Khan addressed the Philadelphia crowd to recount the story of his son Humayun Khan, a Muslim American soldier who was killed while serving in Iraq in 2004.
Khizr Khan painted a portrait of heroism, patriotism, bravery, and sacrifice—one that stood in stark contrast to the invidious message Donald Trump has issued to describe American Muslims and the unconstitutional religious test he has offered to bar Muslim immigrants from entering this country. Quite simply, Khan (tried to) put Donald Trump to shame.

“Our son Humayun had dreams … of being a military lawyer, but he put those dreams aside the day he sacrificed his life to save the lives of his fellow soldiers,” Khan told the convention. “Hillary Clinton was right when she called my son ‘the best of America.’ If it was up to Donald Trump, he never would have been in America.”
