Senate Officials Confirm John McCain Expected to Step Down from U.S. Senate

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 McCain’s senate seat in a special election after McCain’s 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 McCain’s 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, it’s 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.

Socialist Paradise isn’t it?

[CarolinaReaganFan]

somehow i just can’t see this guy voluntarily retiring, but i’d sure like to. That’d be a great job opening for sheriff Joe (and keep him from screwing things up for kelli ward. He currently could split conservatives putting McAmnesty McSally into that senate seat)

What's the difference between John McCain and a pile of sh*t?

You would try to avoid stepping on a pile of sh*t.

I’m 68, dieing and ain’t debating. You die and don’t get up no more.

[Catmom]

It will...eventually.

Washington is just another blue state in financial suicide mode.

[Trumpisourlastchance]

Thank God. He should have stepped down 25 years ago.

[rfp1234]

And after that, the Dims will register him to vote.

[DrDude]

Awesome take on this subject!

The end is nigh.

Dear John McCain:

Please die.

Thanks,

I always said he would go out with a tag on his toe. He never had the dignity to leave before his expiration date and give someone else a shot. I do have to say, seeing his daughter on The View the other day get upset about his condition was sad. She’s been a bit of dingbat over the years, but maybe she’s got a modicum of sense now about some things. And that is her dad. I understand. We see him totally different from her POV. I won’t say anymore bad things about him, but I will say for the future of AZ and our country, I hope they get a very sensible, conservative person in there as his replacement.

Appoint sheriff Joe to replace McCain, and have Kelli replace Flake.

I love this suggestion! Both will support MAGA.

There are some who cling to power until the uttermost bitter end. Nothing short of the hand of God will wrest from their grasp even the most minute shred of earthly glory.

How about FR quit with the hate and focus on PRAYER for John and Wisdom for the Governor’s choice for replacement.

If you want to pray for him, by all means post it; but stifle the judgmental lecture. Even the Lord Jesus Christ expressed frustration and exasperation with oppositional defiant behavior:

He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? —Mark 9:19 KJV

Mt 18:21-35

.....
I forgave you your entire debt because you begged me to.
Should you not have had pity on your fellow servant,
as I had pity on you?’
Then in anger his master handed him over to the torturers
until he should pay back the whole debt.
So will my heavenly Father do to you,
unless each of you forgives your brother from your heart.”

“haunt” should read “amuse”?
