Why would any self respecting patriotic American continue to support this excuse for a President?

Yes, the press is making President Trump the center of attention during a time when this should be about McCain and his family. It's his last chance for Mccain to be the news story of the day/week.

Such a selfish response that answers my question...….. Because all they care about is themselves, me, me, me, me, me, and me, and screw everyone else. Some country we live in.

Now McCain is a Liberal to Trump Bots. Anybody who's not a far right White Supremacist is a Liberal. LOL

I actually think that President Trump does not crawl up on the roof and raise/lower a Flag.
I actually think that there are people who have that job and that those people follow Flag Etiquette & the Laws that govern Half-Staff.

I posted the link ...... it's quite comprehensive and it's written by Congress & signed by the President so that it is KNOWN what to do. The President could have issued a Proclamation that changed the timing that is laid out in the Statute - last item is that the President can change it by Proclamation for any reason.

John McCain wanted nothing from President Trump, even barred him from his funeral - which is very bizarre and insulting, but it was McCain's choice. President is going along with McCain's wishes - that's pretty clear and very appropriate under the circumstances.

No you are wrong. Politics have always been in the gutter. You just had the politicians who were corrupt on both sides who couldn't expose each other without exposing themselves.

Then you have an outsider who didn't need the corrupt politicians' money or approval so he wins and the corruption starts getting exposed.

Then out comes the disgusting, petty, unprofessional, egotistical, small minded attacks by the corrupt leftists Democrat and RINO Republicans, against President Trump, who know their days are numbered once all the facts about just how deep their corruption runs gets exposed.

Oh gee I wonder why McCain didn't want him at his funeral? Could it be because Trump said he likes People who "Don't get Caught" among other things. You Trump zombies are deranged lunatics.

Trump has killed political correctness. McCain was not a Trump admirer and it would be disingenuous of Trump to slobber all over the White house about his dear friend John. Besides, The Left would have a field day with that as they rightly pointed out the hypocrisy.

oh yeah, even if I liked Trump I'd say this....

so you actually think, and believe, that because of Trump who has been in office not two years, in that short amount of time, Political leaders have grown Corrupt?

Yeah right....

It takes years and years to get where we're at....30 - 40 years....
and it's from a combination of things...and a trickle down effect...one thing effects another and another....

All of my liberal friends on Facebook are making their "I didn't care for his politics AT ALL, but we lost a great man" posts, but leaving out that they were trash talking him before he died.
