Was just on NBC morning show to talk about the rabble, rabble going on over in the House IC committee meeting, how it looks bad for Trump, and there are more shoes to drop, and suspicious of changes to the Rep. platform at the convention
Then at the very end . . . .
Q: So when there other shoes drop, is that a fatal blow to this young admin?
McCain: I don't know? I just said there are always more shoes dropping in big events like these. I just don't know what they are at this point
Q: You said that the comments by Dem. Schiff are looking bad for Trump? Have you seen this new information that he is claiming to be beyond circumstantial?
McCain: No, I've not seen it. We have nothing new on the Senate side
NBC: Thank you Senator for being here

He went through 5 1/2 years in a hell hole prison in Viet Nam.
He was tortured daily and I'm pretty sure that 5 1/2years seemed like 500 years
I read his book about the time he spent there and it is scary as hell. And I'm sure it seemed like hell.
I dealt with him directly when I was with the Navy and he was very impressive but also very edgy, all of which is understandable.
I think we can justifiably give him some slack. We owe him big-time.

No, we don't really owe him schit. He owes us, or more accurately, he owes the people of Arizona. If his past negatively affects the way he does his job, he owes it to them to step down.

I agree. He doesn't need to be in office, I don't like his politics, but I'll not denigrate the man's service.

They also forget the Forrestal. He lost something like five aircraft in a relatively short career. Had he not been and admiral's son, he never would have been in a position to get captured and become a "hero". He would have been flying rubber dogshit out of Hong Kong or flying a desk somewhere.

We owe that piece of garbage nothing more than a simple dose of euthanasia. Please show us any benefit having that little Napolean in office has done anyone. Also just love his little tag along Lindsey Graham, what a pair of douchebags.

I fully appreciate what he went through and sacrificed for this[our] country.
He NOW chooses[ of his own accord] to be a U.S. Senator.
Is he above reproach?
I don't understand why if so?
Please explain.
My comment above was in reference to his having his azz handed to him 8+ years ago by Obama. IMO he never has gotten past that.
If he isn't a fan of the current admin that's fine, but when he says stupid sheit like he did this morning he is undermining his own party.

What bothers me about McCain is now not the past. He lies to the people of Arizona to get elected. Hasbeen

i live in his district
i remember him when he moved here from virginia
i remember him even as a congressman
it is a protected district in that people will vote in the majority of a republican candidate over what ever demcratic scum is running against the republican.
a lot of money, lot of old boy support, and noone has been an effective challenger in the primary.
i had hope this last time around with a very good candidate running against him, but she couldn't quite make it.
he has been an embarrassment for years.

McCain and Bob Dole both need to be put out to pasture. Losers both in failed runs for the presidency, both banked on "war hero" status being their key to success.
