The Des Moines Register editorial board on Monday night called for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to drop out of the race, saying the real estate mogul and reality star disqualified himself by questioning Senator John McCain's war record.
Trump on Saturday said McCain, who was a prisoner of war in Vietnam for more than five years, is considered a war hero only because he was captured. Amid backlash from Republicans and Democrats alike, Trump walked the comments back, saying that McCain is a hero but hasn't done enough for veterans.
