Perhaps he didn't mean to, perhaps it came out wrong, but in the court of public opinion, Donald Trump has picked a fight with the grieving family of Capt. Humayun Khan, an American soldier slain while serving his country.
During the Democratic National Convention, Khizr Khan expressed his anger that the Republican nominee has "sacrificed nothing and no one."
He also blamed Trump for unfairly fueling the denigration and abuse of millions of decent, law-abiding U.S. Muslims in the debate over Islamic terrorism.
"Who wrote that? Did Hillary's script writers write it?" Trump said in an interview with with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos. "I think I've made a lot of sacrifices. I work very, very hard."
His suggestion that Ghazala Khan had been silenced due to her husband’s presumed Muslim male misogyny has been received as particularly distasteful, and factually inaccurate.
Trump has explained he was merely firing back at the Khans for attacking him, when he had nothing to do with the war in the Middle East and unlike Hillary Clinton, has been against it all along.
He has also said he honors Capt. Khan for his sacrifice and his service.
But he has yet to apologize directly to Khan's parents.
So our question to you is this:
