Like his comments about Mr. Curiel, Mr. Graham said, Mr. Trump’s jabs at Mr. and Ms. Khan were entirely unacceptable. He has asked Republican leaders to disavow Mr. Trump and has repeatedly characterized Mr. Trump as a person of unredeemable callousness. So far, Mr. Pence has been silent, and his aides referred requests for comment to Mr. Trump’s campaign staff. Mr. Trump also insisted in the same interview that Mr. Khan was wrong to say he had not sacrificed for his country. Mr. Coffman, who represents a crucial swing district in the Denver suburbs, said Mr. Trump had disrespected American troops.
