John McCain slams prospect of Trump ‘reset’ with Russia
The Washington Times ^ | November 15, 2016 | Guy Taylor

Posted on 11/15/2016 3:25:47 PM PST by McGruff

Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain issued a sharp warning Tuesday against the prospect of reset in U.S.-Russia relations — a day after President-elect Donald Trump engaged in an extensive phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Mr. McCain, who switched back and forth between supporting and criticizing Mr. Trump ahead of last week’s election, said in a statement that he distrusts Mr. Putin, and the idea of pandering to Russia will come at a high price for U.S. interests in the Middle East and beyond.

“With the U.S. presidential transition underway, Vladimir Putin has said in recent days that he wants to improve relations with the United States,” Mr. McCain said. “We should place as much faith in such statements as any other made by a former KGB agent who has plunged his country into tyranny, murdered his political opponents, invaded his neighbors, threatened America’s allies and attempted to undermine America’s elections.”

The only answer to this RINO LOSER is sit down, shut up, we won.

His buddy is leaving the White House - finally, after eight long, painful years - in a few weeks, and h;ell be back to his “maverick” - read, traitorous - self.

Marginalize, freeze out, and deconstruct this buffoon.

Sick to death of him.

Russia is rumoured to have an arrest warrant for George Soros, who has donated to both democrats and republicans.

If I’m not mistaken, McCain is one of his pet republicans.

McCain is an abusive a-hole. I’ve seen video of him verbally abusing women.

I have no use for a “man” like that.

His rages could have led us into disaster.

Funny how he worries about U.S. interests, but could care less what happens in the U.S. Shove it McLame.

That didn’t take long. Only a week since he got re-elected. Juan desperately needs a mental evaluation.

McCain should go make Depends commercials and leave foreign policy to team Trump. President Trump doesn't want advice from an idiot who helped create and arm Isis. McCain is another moslum brotherhood stooge.

John McCain, ...we should have paid what the North Vietnamese demanded to keep him.

Your words may be truer than even you believe. It was John McCain with his attacks on his fellow Republicans and his appeasement of the Communist Obama (perhaps a reflex action from his POW days) that paved the way for the Muslim Bolshevik to ascend to the Presidency. Once there, Obama nearly destroyed America and is working for a nuclear Iran what Obama thinks will kill Israel's six million Jews, but may bomb America as well or simply instead of Israel. No one stood up to this senile, evil man in the Seanate before he ran for President and now we see the result.

Where was McCain when we were forgiving the Communists in Vietnam and establishing relations with them?

Oh yea, he was LEADING THE CHARGE.

As if he has any credibility here...

McCain should go the Mediterranean and show the Russians the proper way to crash a jet onto an aircraft carrier.
