McCain: Trump ‘Has a Point,’ Dossier Leak Was ‘Totally Wrong'
Breitbart ^ | Pam Key

Posted on 01/17/2017 9:31:06 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said President-elect Donald Trump’s “has a point” that the unverified dossier on Trump and Russia “was leaked is somebody’s responsibility,” and it was “totally wrong.”

McCain said, “The president-elect has a point. This information, this damning information which, by the way, was provided to me, and I made no judgment on it, but handed it over to the FBI. But the fact that this un-validated, to say the least, document was leaked is somebody’s responsibility. So the president-elect does have a point here I mean after all. So I think that that’s something that may be missing in this discussion.”

#5 Same pattern of behaivior he displayed when he was on the hot seat during the Keating 5 Scandal.

He sold out his partners in crime to the Congressional Committees and fed press leaks to make him look like an innocent bystander while Cranston, Deconcini and others were taken down.

Hmmm... Anyone think McCain is getting inundated with hate mail? And it’s only just begun...

“But I’ve never seen the effort to delegitimize an organization for a story that you don’t like that has been *proven*,”
Fake Tapper, CNN

“This information, this *damning information* which, by the way, was provided to me, and I made no judgment on it,” blah blah blah blah blah
Juan McInsane (AZ, GOP-e)

A pee farce cobbled together by a 4chan misanthrope, fake as hell—but that’s the `rats’ story and they’re sticking to it. Dan Blather would be proud.

And they still can’t understand how they lost.

Rush did a good job talking about what McCain did. He said there is no way that McCain who has been on intelligence committees could see this report and not see it for what it was, absolute garbage.

The press was waiting for the fact that the intelligence had brief the President to pretend there was anything to it before they ran with it.

McCain is just trying to backtrack to save what’s left of his reputation. He’s barking up the wrong tree - what little respect there is for McCain usually comes from the Democrat side of the aisle, so he should stick to playing up to them.

MCain thought Trump would not fight back by directly indicting get esoteric called intelligence community. He probably thought that, as every GOP prez did in the past, Trump would suck it up for the good of the nation and not expose the corruptness of the CIA and FBI.

Maybe he was acting like Dim who can receive intelligence one day and the next simps tell contradictory lies and expect that no one would correct them as in Scooter Libby.

Those days are over Johnny boy. This prez hits back and twice as hard and nasty at that.

When McCain was shot down over Vietnam, it was the first and only time he didn't wreck the plane himself.

McCain ain't no hero. He's a chickensh!t.

I don't think there's any question. McCain and his corrupt cohorts on the left and right of the DC cesspool, have been lobbing one grenade after another at Trump's tent, hoping that one of them will kill him.

I've never seen anything like it. Every week there's some new 'bombshell' that's going to 'stop Trump!' before he takes office. Sadly, for the conspirators, every one of those attacks has been composed of easily debunked lies.

The fools who oppose Trump have learned nothing over the course of the election. I swear, these people remind me of Wiley Coyote, setting one trap after another, only to watch them blow up in their faces.

I keep scratching my head, wondering when they're going to figure out that the only way to hurt Trump is to nail him on actual, authentic misdeeds or errors. It can't be done with lies and manufactured booby traps.

What an election!

He wants something from Trump by trying to have it both ways. First he sends a flunky to UK to meet secretly with Chris Steel and receive the dossier handoff, which McCain claims he only learned about when he “received” it. Now he tries the mea culpa scam to slither into the Trump favors handout gang.

Johnny showing the country exactly what he is; and that is far from ‘hero’. We pray the ass comes back to bite him

When I heard Rush describe that, it was a groan moment, and yet that’s vintage McStain.
