John McCain calls brain cancer prognosis 'very poor'

WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. Sen. John McCain says doctors have given him a "very poor prognosis" as he battles brain cancer.

McCain underwent surgery in July for a brain tumor that was later found to be a form of glioblastoma, the same type of cancer that took the life of his former Senate colleague Edward M. Kennedy in 2009. McCain tells CBS' "60 Minutes" in an interview that aired Sunday night that he thinks about Kennedy a lot. He says Kennedy continued to work despite the diagnosis and "never gave up because he loved the engagement."

I cannot wish him ill, as my mother died of the same condition.

All he has to do is make believe it’s Trump’s prognosis, and vote against the prognosis.

Ted Kennedy was gone in less than a year after they told us about his brain cancer.

So who is lining up to replace this RINO?

We better move on this fast. The establishment is already planning.

“”never gave up because he loved the engagement.”

What is McCain's engagement? Opposing Trump and his constituents? Lying about repealing the ACA? He loves that? Obviously.

ISIS' McCain is EXEMPT and gets Platinum-CARE
while he forces the rest of Americans
(who are not yet enslaved, beheaded or burnt alive
by his treachery) to eat ObamaCARE.

#EXEMPTLivesMatterMost!

I’m sorry to hear that and wish him the best in his final days. But he’s truly not that important and certainly not irreplaceable.

I hope he decides to get right with the Lord and also to take his final days back home in Arizona.

Today would be a good day to move.

Teddy K, like John McCain, continued to work because the job of ruining America was his reason for living.

He received a fellation on 60 mins last night, followed by a Trump Kill Fest.

No, he should crawl back into his room at the “Hanoi Hilton” and leave us alone.

McCain is a bitter vindictive traitor. Watch him switch parties so the AZ Governer is forced to appoint a Rat when he goes.

None of us are getting out of this alive. All of us have a sin problem.

Thank God for Jesus Christ.

I just hope he drops dead before the 2018 election. If the DemonRats pick up more seats he will vote to impeach Trump. He is personally peeved at Trump’s critique of his questionable war record. Trump should also bring up the Keating Five issue and rub McCain’face in it.
