Comment: Hearing Trump ask if the father was controlled by the Clinton campaign, I thought, "sure, that is something a person could do to minimize the damage from the father's forceful and heartfelt speech."

Then Trump went after the mother, "why didn't she speak, she was awfully quiet, etc" and I thought, "why would anyone bluster on about why a mother didn't speak about her dead son? This is crazy!"

And then when in response the father's “You have sacrificed nothing and no one" he says he has "worked hard" and "created jobs".... I don't know. I'm pretty forgiving about extemporaneous speech since if a person is forced to talk a lot they will say some odd things. But this was so tone-deaf, so self-centered. I can't imagine a mindset where that would come out as an answer without him immediately blanching and saying, "I can't believe I said that! I am so sorry!".
