Has Frank Burns been reincarnated? (Humor intended) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

.

Do you remember when Frank told Hawkeye and BJ -

"I'm sick of hearing about the wounded! What about the thousands of wonderful men who are fighting this war without any of the credit or the glory that always goes to those lucky few who just happen to get shot?"

I've heard something somewhat similar recently.... Where was it?

I've got it - Donald Trump - defending his remarks that John McCain is only a war hero because he got captured stating "I like people who weren't captured."

"People that fought hard and weren't captured and went through a lot, they get no credit," he said. "Nobody even talks about them. They're like forgotten, and I think that's a shame, if you want to know the truth."

Ah yes, the Donald and Ferret Face have a lot in common - LOL!

PS this is not meant to be a political statement, just pointing out similarity, to me at least, of the remarks.

Also I suspect that "The Donald" would be just as inept at being President as Frank Burns was as being a surgeon!
