If you’re not voting John....you shouldn’t be saying anything.

Kelly Sadler deserves the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

There are many reasons that McCain is hated. He is responsible for all of it.

He hates all of us and the feeling happens to be mutual.

The guy is a traitorous bastard.

McCain has spent his Senate career aiding and abetting illegal aliens colonizing our country.
When he wasn’t arming jihadis.

Juan McPain sold this nation out many times over. He doesn’t deserve any of our sympathy! This praise and glorification of McPain by the MSM is so phony. The only reason they like him is because he bashes all of us!

Anybody who insults the president of our United States doesn’t need an explanation or an apology from this traitor.

No one “hates” McCain for being a POW. The “Trump right” is willing to give him their thanks for serving the United States during wartime. It’s the reputation that he earned as a Senator that has earned him the scorn heaped upon him.

I hate McCain.

Eventually I will go well beyond that and be totally indifferent about him.

The left TRASHED McCain throughout 2008.

Now he’s a saint?

Had McCain been dying during the 2008 election, the left would have been cheering his death on in a way that made any comments to date look tame in comparison.

I am so frigging sick of fake outrage.

No surprise a simple statement of fact based on plain truth is considered “hate” by the lunatic fringe of the Left

Apparently, he is well enough to write a book and run his nasty mouth
but not well enough to show up and vote.
His long goodbye is getting very old.

“He’s dying anyway”

So are a lot of US citizens because McCain decided to say F you to them when it came to healthcare.

McCain is bitter to the very end. He should be focusing on Jesus rather than throwing verbal daggers towards Trump.

The Senator loves to snipe at political foes but has an absolute conniption fit when his target returns fire.

Huhhh... I wonder where Vox was in 2008 when the leftists made the same attacks.

For that matter I wonder what Vox thinks of Lieberman...

Within the circle of Trump-supporting conservatives, McCain is a traitor,>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The Gang of 14, the continuous ruination of conservative policy legislation in the Senate etc...

The final straw for me was McCain’s vote against the repeal of Obama care, cast out of spite, not because he cared anything about the bogus replacement bill drafted by Ryan and his cronies..

Then there was the boondoggle million dollar arms fiasco through Obama in Syria where a cadre of men of this bogus Syrian “resistance” made themselves rich selling the McCain armaments on the black market to ISIS.

The list goes on and on.

McCain’s disrespectful comments from his bitter death bed about Sarah Palin assure McCain will go down in history as a POS with a POS legacy......a loser.

And no one did it to him, not Donald Trump for sure.

John McCain did it to himself.

“On Thursday, White House special assistant Kelly Sadler reportedly reacted by saying of McCain, who is fighting brain cancer, “It doesn’t matter, he’s dying anyway.” “

NICE!!! Hadn’t heard about that.

“Medal of Freedom”

Maybe, but there’s some BIG-TIME competition, as in this:

“When McCain reportedly decided that he didn’t want President Trump to attend his funeral, former Trump campaign staffer Sam Nunberg tweeted a meme implying that Trump would “celebrate from home then.””
