The day John McCain dies will be a National Holiday, celebrated with a day off work, parades, marching bands, clowns, and candy.

Doesn’t Mitch have the ability to pull this asshole’s committee assignment? WHEN is the spineless GOP going to stand up to this idiot?

(Yeah, I know... never).

What “war in Iraq? “
What about the undeclared illegal war in Syria where we are cheering the deaths if Russians who are fighting al Qaeda and ISIS
McCain cant step down too soon

. . . . until he is satisfied the administration is communicating its plans for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

To who? To get his stamp of approval? The last military command decision this arrogant jackass made was to disregard his training on what to do if you detect being painted by AA radar while in a bombing run. What was that, aircraft #4 that he was directly involved in the destruction of because he determined the rules did not apply to him?

But at this point, what difference does it make? I am a United States Senator!

Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain

The man has probably fatal brain cancer, he's blocking every major piece of legislation, and now he's blocking the President's nominees.

He still has his positions on committee chairs why? The corrupt/cowardly Republican Senate will not remove Mitch McConnell!

What’s it been, 36 hours since this horses ass dropped a load of road apples on the nation the last time?

I have run out of superlatives to describe this guy.

George Soros’ best friend appears to be about as accurate as any.

If I read this correctly, McInsane wants the administration and the Pentagon to release military secrets (numbers of troops deployed, where they're deployed, battle strategy, etc.) to his committee, despite the ever-present chances of leaks which would put our troops in utmost peril.

The Commander-in-Chief and his able war council are running the military, not the guy with the brain tumor....and they don't have to inform the houses of Congress of their on-the-battlefield military plans. Goals and aims, yes, detailed strategy layouts, NO.

McInsane is psychotic.....and he and his ilk on the committee and in the Senate are committing treason, blackmail and blockage of the deadliest kind. The GOP members of the committee should have been on the tube immediately...where are they?

God help us....

When Kennedy was finally gone from the senate, it was a very happy day for me. I will feel the same about Pelosi and others. But McCain holds a special place with me in this regard. When he’s gone, whether it is by retirement or otherwise, I will definitely do something to celebrate.

Here’s to the end of your long, ignoble, shameful career Mr. McCain.

#17 — uggh, that mottled skin and creepy smile make my skin crawl.

Soros looks bad, too.

Time to take away all John’s chairs. Also time to ask for note from doctor that he’s not brain damaged.

" I don’t remember you stopping ANYTHING that Obama wanted to do....."

Nor I! Obama rested on the color of his skin knowing it would keep him safe from criticism from most and the MSM stopped being journalists for the FBP. Socialists don't want the United States Constitution to hinder their agendas....another reason they hate POTUS Trump.

McLame should resign and spend his remaining time with his family.
He is a very bitter man. Bitter to the very end apparently.

Mitch Mc Connell equally as bad. He lets McCain do what ever he wants.

THE MARK OF CAIN

The "Mark of Cain" is the curse resulting from Cain murdering his brother Abel and lying about it to God. Look it up on Wiki.

The above photo in # 17 clearly shows marked faces on two of the most evil, traitorous men in this Republic.

Only now, instead of the "Mark of Cain" I call their creepy facial lines "The Mark of McCain".

They are both a curse to this country.

Praying for our President/Commander-in-Chief to overcome these two insidious snakes.

If McCain were an enemy agent, how would his behavior be different than it is now?
