People who deserve criticism die all the time..... doesn't give them a pass.
Why should it be different for McCain?
If Trump dropped dead tomorrow, would you speak no ill of him forever more?
If Trump dropped dead tomorrow I'd say "good riddance to bad rubbish". But I wouldn't obsess over him the way he's obsessed over John McCain. Clearly McCain is living rent free in Trump's head. Call it McCain's revenge.
*Trump puts us in a dilemma: on one hand, paying attention to his tweets can distract us from other matters. On the other hand, not taking him to task gives the impression that most of American society condones that behavior in a president. Even worse, to not challenge it is to normalize it, give it a false legitimacy, and thus coarsen our society's behavior in general - all the way down to the Smithville Rotary Club and high school teachers, even "ordinary fine parents".

It is NOT OK for Trump to criticize anyone BUT, YOU CAN. Got it!
Why do people think that McCain should be above criticism?
I mean other than the fact that he hated Trump?
He was a war hero.....yes.
That doesn't give him carte blanche to be a dick the rest of his life afterwards.
"He was a war hero.....yes. "
He was a war hero.....NO!
"Definition of hero
(Entry 1 of 3)
1a : a mythological or legendary figure often of divine descent endowed with great strength or ability
b : an illustrious warrior
c : a person admired for achievements and noble qualities
d : one who shows great courage"
What did he do that was so heroic?
Those that served with him as a POW's do NOT believe he was a "hero".
He did NOTHING they ALL did.
I take THEIR stories over people who were NOT there.

It wasn't until he came out against Trump that the Left embraced him as some kind of shining example of bipartisanship.
Perhaps you should learn the difference between disliking a man's politics and questioning his integrity/character as Trump does constantly. Laughable as Trump possesses neither integrity nor character.

P.S. I did TWO tours on 'Nam.
So you agree that Trump's full of crap when he speaks of McCain's service?
It's been fascinating to watch. They bleat on day after day after day with the most nonsensical of stuff over their complete derangement about about Trump. For 3 years they have been going on & on about Trump's impending disaster which never comes.
It's obvious that Trump loves to rile them up. And with just 140 characters he can send them into a complete frenzy. They fall for it every single time.

Oh Kitty, bless your heart, to attribute anything to Trump’s tweets but a tantrum, is an insult to two year olds across the nation. You think he is using strategy? That’s hilarious! There’s a lot of poop tweets that pop up even before Fox And Friends have stopped firing Trump up for the day.
What grown man tweets constantly like fourteen year old school girl who was jilted on a date? It’s ridiculous.
Face it. There’s currently a mentally sick POTUS in the Whitehouse and it was you that put him there.
I guess you believe all the polls that show candidates like Joe Biden run well ahead of Trump in Michigan are all part of anti-Trump conspiracy correct?

Hypocrite to the core
TDS is the new rhetoric the right has been fed by some talking head. This term is used because the right has no defense and are embarrassed by the man they elected.
