Dem governors? Ducey's a Repub and so was almost any governor back to Fife. The only Dem was Janet Napolitano.

His visible presence in Kiev, at a central square during the coup d'etat in Ukraine along with Nuland was PLAIN WRONG.

Does it matter to you Trumpsters that a man who's never served a day in the US military, a man who couldn't physically fight his way out of a wet paper bag (he apparently failed a physical way back when he was in his 20s) has the GALL to disrespect a US war veteran? I'm a liberal, and it matters to me!
Yeah that bothers me a lot.....I dont like McCain but you can't say he's a loser because he was shot down over Hanoi. Thats really not cool. He did his service and was honorable. He had the choice to go home early because his dad being an Admiral.....As a senator his time has come and i dont believe in lifers in congress.

I dont like Trump that much as a person...then again I dont like most politicians and wouldn't care to meet any of them. I think Trump will be good for the economy. Geo politics, well Obama was terrible Trump will either be better or much much worse. I dont let whoever is in office dictate my future.

I cannot believe the audacity of Trump supporters in criticizing a war hero.

This is a new low.



Get used to it. The Donald knows no bounds when it comes to being a low life.


McCain will do the stand up things for this country--like calling the Australians and sorting out the mess the Donald created with the PM. Good people do things like that. It would never occur to The Donald to do something like that. Just be a good person; he is too busy degrading any and all that cross his path in order to make himself look good. Narcissists are like that.


McCain is done after this term. He gave in selfless service for this country. For you youngins, go back and read about and see the pictures of his time in a Vietnamese war jail. Few would survive that. Trump wouldn't even attempt; he took the easy way out.


Until you have walked a mile in his shoes, don't fall for The Donald's BS about how he likes his war heroes "not to be captured". One of the biggest horses a$$ things he has said...thus far.


(PS..I am a disabled veteran...if Trump ever had the guts to say that to my face I would punch him right in the mouth. He is lucky McCain is a gentleman).

I think McCain is part of the D.C. swamp that needs to be drained?

President Trump supporters what do you think?

McCain is just one of many powerful enemies tRump cultivated within his own party. And considering his age, Mac more than likely won't be running for his seat again in 6 years. That makes him a dangerous adversary, because he's got nothing to lose in opposing tRump.

Why? Because they are not boot lickers of Trump? Why do you oppose people on your side having the principle to think for themselves and disagree with your master if they dont see eye to eye on every crazy thing he does? Who else is a loser? Kasich? Anyone else who wont kiss Trumps azz?


The losers are the asskissers, both politicians and voters, who wont question what their leaders tell them is right and correct.

Yes start using YouTube Videos as a fact, all it takes is one person to state that McCain is a traitor, no investigative article, no references yet you believe because they are telling you what you want to hear.
Stating that McCain was overweight is obvious proof that he was a traitor
Well, I believe at-chilles also posted something else in another thread. He provided another video, another link. He asked you very politely, please debunk it, you never came back say your last word

So you can all you want. I have the right to CHOOSE whom I want to believe. Hey, I am just as clueless as everybody else; I am just trying to be sane in a world of misinformation.

I've never said McCain is not a WAR hero. I said he is not my PERSONAL hero. Now, I have my doubts of what he did over there.

In fact, I know one Vietnam vet who is a bona fide war hero. (He is a really quiet guy believe it or not) I asked him if he believed McCain was a war hero. He said, "I don't know." That is what he said. It looks like different people have different opinions about him. I have my doubts too. Can I have doubts? The Vietnam Vet also told me even if I have my doubts, (and so did he) it is not wise to question other people's military service becasue everybody served is heroic in a way. So we can just leave it at that. no?
