He never wanted to be President anyway. It was a publicity stunt, and he's been trying since the early primaries to disqualify himself.
I don't know what's sadder: Seeing our Presidential choices come to this, or seeing people on both sides of the aisles (myself included at times) taking pleasure in it. It's a sad day for America. (Happy day that he will never get elected, but that's the only positive here.)
You've made a good point.
In the past couple of months I was wondering why Donald was sabotaging his own campaign. He was the underdog to begin with, but was hell bent on ruining his own chances.
Maybe? I was wondering if a trump supporter could give us a clue, as they seem to know the inner workings of trump most arcane statements. They should be able to tell us just exactly what McCain supposedly did to set that off.
The bolded is part of the problem. There is no "great leader" who will rise up and fix everything and if someone claims to be that person, you should run far and fast in the other direction. Trump, who is probably a megalomaniac, tried to sell himself as that person. "I alone can fix it." He's not that person and no one else is, either.
The most you can hope for is to elect a smart, fair, educated person who will do their best to put the interests of the country first. They'll make mistakes and they'll never be able to please everyone, but that's all any human can do.
America is STILL a great country. Yes, a country with problems and weaknesses. But instead of hoping to find some perfect, amazing leader, trust that your fellow Americans, whether they're in politics or just your neighbors are almost always doing the best they can.
Yes. Each of us has to be our own leader. I don't understand why people are so afraid. This country gives you so many opportunities. Do your best, be good to each other, things will be okay.
McCain is both a military brat and a military man.
There may well be military men who never turn the air blue, but I've never met one.
That may be, but after being in the military and working for many years with active military and veterans, I rarely experienced either military men or women turning the air blue. For the most part, they were exceptionally polite and businesslike in dealing with others.
I asked because trump's tweet had an air of specificity when it declared McCain to be foul mouthed. As if there was something that McCain said to or about him that set him off. I have never seen anything that suggests that McCain has a foul mouth.

I suspect there may be a generational difference here. I am McCain's age. Women were in the military then, but mostly as nurses. The ordinary enlisted men I knew (Air Force wife) were creatively profane, even around me.
But ultimately it doesn't matter. As we all know, Trump is pretty foul-mouthed himself, so consider the source.
Well this has been a fun little circle jerk, but the fact is, the reason that Trump was so popular was because we are sick and tired of the fake Republicans...the RINOs. We were never fooled to believe that they ever supported him, and getting him the nomination was a loud message back to them about what we thought of the lying scum in the GOP. They were nothing more than Democrats in sheep's clothing. They lied to us and we want them out.
I understand that some liberals are so stupid that they can't comprehend that not everyone blindly follows a letter behind a name, that some of us actually hold our politicians accountable when they lie or vote in way we don't agree with. Liberals have a habit of following lock step because they can't think for themselves. They need their nanny government to tell them what to do, how to think, and what to say. So it is not surprising in the least that they can't grasp the concept of Trump not giving a damn if the establishment pukes in the GOP fall to the way side as we voters kick their butts out this election season.
You see, most Trump supporters know that this isn't just about electing a president. This is about much more. We've been telling you for a year now why we are voting for Trump. You all keep thinking it's about Trump. You all keep missing the point. You all keep failing, as does the Hillary camp - it's why she struggles so hard to get her "easy win" to the White House...because none of the idiotic liberal twits who are supporting establishment are listening.
With any luck, the liberal psychos who support Hillary will be having a very, very bad November and beyond. I'm going to laugh at every last one of you for four solid years if Trump wins. Not only because all we're going to here is incessant angry whining from liberal psychos who supported Hillary the evil beast, but because we will finally have a chance to get this country back in order...that includes booting out a few useless twits who had the audacity to call themselves "Republicans".
