Sen. John McCain is not expected to return the Washington D.C. politics, according to several sources who are closely monitoring his health and medical treatments at his ranch in Arizona.
In fact, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is already in the process of selecting a candidate to run for McCains senate seat in a special election after McCains expected retirement from the Senate, sources said. Candidates were contacted this week in fact as Democrats jockey to find new blood to oppose the GOP-held seat in Arizona.
At this point, we are coming to terms that McCain is done here (in the Senate), one Senate insider on the Hill said Wednesday. Preparations are underway to deal with this.
Just weeks ago, a White House official said McCain known for his anti-Trump leaks to the media and his connection to the bogus Trump dossier was refusing to step down from the Senate despite his reported stage IV brain cancer diagnosis and treatments.
Now, sources said, the GOP and Democrats are prepping for a likely special election for his Arizona senate seat. First, however, if McCain were to retire, the governor of Arizona would appoint an interim Republican to fill McCains seat before a special election.
That would give the GOP another vote in the Senate as McCain has been absent since Christmas.
John McCain may never cast another vote in the U.S. Senate.
But he plans to stay in Arizona and the U.S. Senate, according to a high-level White House source, regardless of GOP-backed pressure for him to retire from the Senate.
John McCain is a pretty good runner for a guy with a boot on his leg.
Or legs. He switches the boot to different feet, all while recovering from an alleged Achilles tear.
Another lie in a career-long list of lies, half-truths and manipulations stretching the truth from Washington D.C. to Arizona to Vietnam and back again. Several times.
So it was of little surprise that when the bogus Trump dossier reached a fever pitch of debate and finger pointing on Tuesday, McCain was nowhere to be found.
Missing In Action.
Again.
Is McCain even in D.C? No. Sources report he is still at his $15 million mountain-top compound in Arizona. Is he under treatment for his Stage IV cancer treatment. No one is saying. Like always with everything McCain, its hard to believe what is true and what is polished hype to make him appear to be a hero.
But this was predicted in December and even before. True Pundit reported McCain would not return to D.C. if the dossier scandal stayed hot. it has. And McCain is not in the Beltway.
McStain needs to be ground up legally for his crimes.
FAKE NEWS!! McInsane will NEVER STEP DOWN! He wants to hold onto power and a state Funeral!
Would this be the second or third boom?
Soon, there will be zero Clintons and McAinals in congress or holding a position in DC.
Before or after he is no longer?
McCain was heard laughing with Dems as he bellowed... "Lets see Donald make america great again now"....
Happy Dance.
Democrats are now trying to figure out a way to prop him up, and turn McCain into the second coming of Bernie, like in “Week-end at Bernie’s”.
Such a reliable vote for democrats. Liberals will miss him more than republicans.
I thought Washington didn’t have income tax? I guess they invent other taxes to make up for it?
Excuse me while I go hurl.
I am thrilled that he will have more time to devote to his family and to his health. I wish him well in his new life (and the sooner, the better).
.......”He wants a state Funeral!”.....
So does his family......they’ll be connecting his POW story with his staying the course as a Senator even up to his death.
So sorry to hear about your mom.
Note also the three Republicans on the left watching that embrace.....
Maybe we could get a Republican in there!
It would be nice for a change.
Yeah right. I believe the good Lord also something about betraying your nation, family and tribe but I don’t memorize a book 4000 years old, translated from 30 dialects, 20 languages and over a period of 1700 years.
Can't wait to get out of this sh*thole.
His passing should be a freakin National Holiday.
Harsh? I think you are being to kind to the pig.
