The Trump and RNC people were slinging mud trying to muck things up by having a victim of the Benghazi attack at the RNC. It wasn't a rebuttal to a Clinton position in any way shape or form, or, had anything to do with Trump. It was dirty politics using a grieving family. Disgusting.

The difference is obvious.
That may be so.

But the Khans were up on stage because they were Muslims and, frankly, reflected some Muslim stereotypes in terms of skin color, accent, etc.

The RNC mom wasn't on stage because she was white. (Although they still might have picked a white person for subconscious reasons.)
