President Trump’s refusal to mention John McCain’s name as he was pontificating about the new military spending bill for 28 minutes reveals the inner Trump in a stark way. His inability to mention the senator’s name is a sign of his immaturity, insecurity, fear of competition, vindictiveness and delusional sense of self-importance. He is the quintessential petulant child.
Debasing a war hero comes easy to him. Taking credit for a bill bearing Mr. McCain’s name also comes easy to him. He has no moral compass. He has no compass at all.

McCain doesn't want POTUS at his funeral, so why should POTUS pretend McCain is still alive?

McCain had nothing to do with the composition of the defenses spending bill, nor anything to do with the bill passing both houses. It was strictly an honorary naming of the bill for one who has not acted very honorably lately.

Perhaps because McCain didn’t actually do anything useful regarding the bill and simply used his senior position to glob on to unearned credit.

If there was justice in the world, McCain would’ve been charged with treason after the Vietnam war.

All these Democrats now writing hagiographies of McCain laughed along with the kenyan as he used Juan as a doormat to wipe his feet on. Really, why should anybody care what Democrats think of POTUS?

McCain’s hiding out because, get this, he’s afraid Sessions might wake up and arrest him!
LOL, McCain is afraid of Sessions.

Exactly how much of this bill was written by the hands of John McCain ? Who, coincidently is dying of brain cancer.
