Just few post ago . I for the record my post do come from News Stories other than CNN of MSBC. I do have to wonder what are your motivations. Supporting the Establishment and over looking corruption ??


The Back channel news stories not all 100% correct but, do offer a reality that the regular sources do not.


McCain is become outwardly what he really is a Moderate, not a Conservative.

What this poster said is how I feel. The President has still not gotten it through his head that this is as democracy, not a dictatorship. Our founding fathers developed a system of checks and balances for a reason.

But we have "excessive expectations" of McCain and his ilk and he called Trump supporters "Crazies" so he can kiss my butt in Macy's window.

One is more politically correct, perhaps. McCain is an experienced politician, nothing more/less.

I don't know any Vietnam veterans love war like he does.

He's 80 years old, close to his death bed, and still wants to fight the Russians.

Only HE doesn't want to fight the Russians, he wants to you and your children to do the fighting instead.

And then by chance if this were to somehow lead to a nuclear exchange, he'd go down below/underground into one of the lavish, state-of-the-art facilities, while all the proles would have to face chaos and destruction above.

He's a truly wonderful, thoughtful man full good intentions....

McCain lives for war. He has NEVER listened to the people because the people don't want spend their entire lives paying for the US to go invade some country.

Funny, he never took a stand against Obama's overreach, and didn't he stand against Trump's "Travel Ban" which was lawful and Constitutional? He's inconsistent, at best.

Very True. Were you upset that Obama bypassed Congress so much and ruled by EO ?

Donald Trump couldn't get his signature promise passed because he had nothing. He bragged that Obamacare was going to be replaced with something "beautiful and wonderful", and that was all it was, bragging.
Obamacare is a turd of a healthcare law. McCain did it purely out of spite for Donald Trump.

Did you listen to anything McCain even mentioned when speaking about his vote to proceed??

This isn't about spite. This is simply about McCain not voting for a bill he thought was even worse. It was a bill so bad, Republican Senators asked Ryan not to take it up in the House because they did not want to see it become law.

Some of you really missed the point of this thread no big surprise I guess. It doesn't matter what one thinks of McCain or which party your a member of. What matters is that he's dead right when it comes to his statement about the President he's supposed to work for the U.S/America you remember the country you all claim to love so much. The President and those under work for us not the other way around.


No wonder the country is going to hell stop you're B.S people the rest of us are suffering for it.
