Trump exhibits disgraceful behavior

It is beyond my understanding how the President of the United States, the Commander in Chief, could disparage a deceased war hero, Sen. John McCain, who served our nation with courage and honor. This alone, in my estimation, disqualifies Donald Trump to be president of this great nation. He has repeatedly exhibited amoral behavior. Trump has no respect for the magnitude of the office that he holds and the country he has sworn to protect.
When McCain was receiving honorable recognition and medals for his valorous sacrifices, Trump was receiving deferments for bone spurs. Give me a break.
