John McCain slams prospect of Trump ‘reset’ with Russia
The Washington Times ^ | November 15, 2016 | Guy Taylor

Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain issued a sharp warning Tuesday against the prospect of reset in U.S.-Russia relations — a day after President-elect Donald Trump engaged in an extensive phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Mr. McCain, who switched back and forth between supporting and criticizing Mr. Trump ahead of last week’s election, said in a statement that he distrusts Mr. Putin, and the idea of pandering to Russia will come at a high price for U.S. interests in the Middle East and beyond.

“With the U.S. presidential transition underway, Vladimir Putin has said in recent days that he wants to improve relations with the United States,” Mr. McCain said. “We should place as much faith in such statements as any other made by a former KGB agent who has plunged his country into tyranny, murdered his political opponents, invaded his neighbors, threatened America’s allies and attempted to undermine America’s elections.”

How are those “US interests” working out for us so far, John?

I’m as sure as can be that John McCain is more concerned about his interests than about US interests.

Arizona should have primaried this fool.
Failing that, it would have been better to have a Democrat in a D jersey rather than this Democrat in an R jersey.

I think this nutbag McCain actually wants World War IV with Russia.

Yikes, what “choices” we had in 2008.........yes, I voted for McCain but I most certainly wasn’t pulling a lever for The Usurper.

That being said, John needs to go away......

Hey Juan, you lost your chance to be El Presidente.

Donald Trump doesn't need the advice of a senile old fart who refuses to let go of power and RETIRE. Get lost.
