John McCain Won't Vote for Trump
John McCain ^ | 10/8/2016 | John McCain

Posted on 10/08/2016 2:11:48 PM PDT by Alter Kaker

Phoenix, AZ– John McCain issued the following statement today withdrawing his support of Donald Trump:

“In addition to my well known differences with Donald Trump on public policy issues, I have raised questions about his character after his comments on Prisoners of War, the Khan Gold Star family, Judge Curiel and earlier inappropriate comments about women. Just this week, he made outrageous statements about the innocent men in the Central Park Five case.

“As I said yesterday, there are no excuses for Donald Trump’s offensive and demeaning comments in the just released video; no woman should ever be victimized by this kind of inappropriate behavior. He alone bears the burden of his conduct and alone should suffer the consequences.

“I have wanted to support the candidate our party nominated. He was not my choice, but as a past nominee, I thought it important I respect the fact that Donald Trump won a majority of the delegates by the rules our party set. I thought I owed his supporters that deference.

“But Donald Trump’s behavior this week, concluding with the disclosure of his demeaning comments about women and his boasts about sexual assaults, make it impossible to continue to offer even conditional support for his candidacy. Cindy, with her strong background in human rights and respect for women fully agrees with me in this.

“Cindy and I will not vote for Donald Trump. I have never voted for a Democratic presidential candidate and we will not vote for Hillary Clinton. We will write in the name of some good conservative Republican who is qualified to be President.”

She's 66 and in poor health. One term and done. Maybe less if we are lucky.

But she's not McCain. Unless she is a looney toons crackpot Neo-Nazi or something, I wouldn't worry too much. She can't be worse than McCain.

And what was the reason the good senator dumped his faithful wife who stood by him as he was a POW? He saw teenaged Cindy in Hawaii and was INTELLECTUALLY AROUSED??? Hm????

Oh, and she wasn’t married... BUT HE WAS. Plop, the sound of him dumping his loving wife for the hottie.

I may have been an incompetent and irresponsible pilot who caused death and destruction on the USS Forestal, and later got shot down because I was still an incompetent and irresponsible pilot, and I may have said many naughty things in both my military and political careers, but Donald Trump said some naughty things too, and I want to use that to betray him, the electorate, and the country, all for the sake of the globalist establishment, which may they live forever untoppled!

I am SO impressed by your integrity, John McCain. You have obviously been waiting for a moment like this to show your true colors, which are yellow, like all hypocritical Liberal warmongers.

< I wouldn’t vote for an ISIS supporter. Let Juan retire this year.

ISIS will probably be relieving him and other white politicians from office pretty soon anyway. Let's make sure we put up road signs to their homes and offices to do our part....

Wow. He won his primary supporting Trump, now he turns his back on him. He is an Oligarch/Sociopath that just uses people for his own advancement.

Mr. McCain, thank you for your service to this nation. Now, please just go away. It’s obvious you’d taken to many smacks to the head.
