Trump accuses McCain and Graham of 'looking to start World War III'
Washington Examiner ^

Posted on 01/29/2017 2:47:07 PM PST by springwater13

President Trump on Sunday accused John McCain and Lindsey Graham - two Republican senators he often clashes with — of "always looking to start World War III."

"The joint statement of former presidential candidates John McCain & Lindsey Graham is wrong - they are sadly weak on immigration," Trump tweeted. "The two senators should focus their energies on ISIS, illegal immigration and border security instead of always looking to start World War III."

On Sunday, McCain and Graham, in a joint statement, condemned Trump's recent executive action restricting immigration and refugees from certain Middle Eastern countries.

"Ultimately, we fear this executive order will become a self-inflicted wound in the fight against terrorism," McCain and Graham said.

"This executive order sends a signal, intended or not, that America does not want Muslims coming into our country," they said. "That is why we fear this executive order may do more to help terrorist recruitment than improve our security."

The truth. NOT ONE OTHER REPUBLICAN would have the balls to tell the truth. Most of them also support warmonging for Soros/Saudis.

DJT is right, of course.
these two senators are really loose cannons, and frequently sound demented or spaced-out into an alternate reality, too

very dangerous, imho

and what’s worse, McCain and Lindsay seem to want to provoke wars we SHOULD NOT fight, wars against potential allies or wars that advance the interests of the worst IslamoNazis, etc

if we ever have to go to a big war again, let it at least be to defeat real enemies (Islamics, etc.) and NOT for some of the things McCain (especially) seems prone to wanna stir up

Sometimes I honestly wonder if John McCain would have been a worse President than Obama had he won in 2008.

Sure, Hagan and Sotomayor wouldn’t be on the Supreme Court, but with McCain, I’m not so sure the Supreme Court Building would even still be there.

We do not want Muslims coming to our country. Let them go to Europe where they already have established a rapine presence in defiance of authorities.

We would all be long dead if McCain was elected in 2008. Sad but true.

“That is why we fear this executive order may do more to help terrorist recruitment than improve our security.”

Recruitment where? Arab states? Muslims in the United States?

Trump’s Executive Orders cannot compete with the Koran for helping terrorist recruitment?

I always say the same thing: If McCainiac had been elected in 2008, America would be a glowing, radioactive crater.
