Republican Senator John McCain slammed Donald Trump on Monday for disparaging the Muslim family of a slain American soldier, and demanded that his party’s presidential candidate set an example for the country. “The suicide bomber, striking prematurely, claimed the life of Captain Khan -- and Captain Khan, through his selfless action and sacrifice, saved the lives of hundreds of his brothers and sisters,” he said. “When a suicide bomber accelerated his vehicle toward a facility with hundreds of American soldiers, Captain Khan ordered his subordinates away from the danger. He praised captain Khan as a “shining example” of bravery and valour. Army captain Humayun Khan was killed in Iraq in 2004, in an explosion at a military compound.
