“Will there ever be a point in time where you’re able to look at Trump in the eye and tell him enough is enough?”
One was that Pence was wholehearted in his words of support for Trump…. “But I promise you, our vision is exactly the same”.
Over the course of the weekend, the spat between the GOP nominee and the fallen Capt. Khan’s parents have reached new heights, with the Khans criticizing Trump for being unconstitutional and the GOP nominee alleging that the fallen Capt.’s mother was not allowed to speak due to her Muslim faith.
The upset mother spoke to NBC News following her appearance at the rally and said she “felt disrespected”.
“We have been watching him malign even the senior-most leaders of his own party”, Khan said.
Scileppi said he favors Donald Trump for president and showed up to hear Pence speak in support of the Trump-Pence ticket. The town hall event later included questions from supporters about the economy, mental health issues and faith in America, among others. Byrne stepped forward, telling the crowd that her son was in the military.
Most of Pence’s time on stage was spent touting Trump’s proposed policies and bashing those of President Barack Obama and Democratic nominee for president Hillary Clinton.
Later Monday, Pence again praised the Khans.
“His family, like all Gold Star families, should always be cherished by all the people of the United States”, said Pence, at a rally in Reno.
This isn’t the first time Pence has come to Trump’s defense since he joined the campaign in July.
With Trump’s comments about Russia, Pence said the national media turned a sarcastic remark into a true encouragement.
“I’ve made a lot of sacrifices”. “Failing to do so, the same should be said of Pence”.
Catherine Byrne was booed when she asked Pence how he “tolerated” Trump’s disrespect of the Kahn family.
Pence’s answer did not move Byrne either, she recalled. But basically, that’s about all I got, I really got out of that, I thought he was respectful to me.

“I knew that it was going to take bravery to mention Mr. Khan’s name in that audience, I was ready and I was there for a while, but it was my opportunity to ask the candidates candid questions that are important to me”, she explained.
