Meanwhile, it took eight months but Donald Trump finally walked back comments he made last year about Sen. John McCain and prisoners of war. During the town hall here in West Chester, Trump was confronted by his past utterances that McCain isn’t a war hero because he was captured and Trump “likes people who weren’t captured.”

A veteran whose son was captured and killed in Iraq asked Trump for clarification on his past comments, telling Trump “What I want you to do is just clarify for me, because I think it’s important for all these people here and for a lot of veterans that’s in Ohio, especially Ohio.”

The man offered, “I know what you were doing” but still asked for clarity.

“You know exactly what I was doing,” Trump responded. “They are heroes, just so you understand. And real heroes, okay? You know that.”
