Sen. From the News Media John McCain sent what may have been a final “f you” to the American people in the wee hours of the morning, joining quasi-Democrat Susan Collins and the flip-flopping Lisa Murkowski as the 3 GOP votes needed to kill the final effort to get an Obamacare reform bill passed out of the senate. A few minutes prior to casting his vote, Sen. McCain was seen yukking it up with Chuck Schumer on the Senate floor. No doubt they were sharing memories of all the previous times they had joined hands in efforts to screw the American people. Good times…good times…
Anthony Scaramucci is either in waaaaaayyyyyyy over his head, or he is exactly the guy President Trump needed to bring in as a senior advisor to help clean out the swamp creatures who still infest the West Wing of the White House. I can’t really decide which option to believe about this guy, and yesterday’s hysterics did not inspire a lot of confidence. Not because of all the profanity – such discourse is the norm in DC – what disturbs me is his apparent naivete’ when dealing with leftwing fake journalists like Ryan Lizza at the New Yorker. After Lizza published his telephone tirade against Reince Preibus and Steve Bannon, Scaramucci claimed he thought their conversation was “off the record.” This displays a belief that he or any other person loyal to the President can actually trust one of these fake journalists to keep their word with them.

This! IMO, Mooch earned bucco points in my book with the New Yorker article.
I predict Reince will be packing his bags soon, and Mooch taking his place as CoS.
Bannon is on notice.
Mooch - nothing is off the record. Better learn that one quickly. The LSM is not your friend.
dont be fooled.
If McCain hadn’t of voted no... another RINO like Gramham would have.
This was all for show.
Can’t believe I voted for this A-hole for POTUS...no more respect for McCain with his years of POW captivity equated to heroism. Thank you for your service, but the freshness date has expired!
This is McCain’s career in a nutshell. On your side when you don’t need him, a knife in the ribs when you do.
And this is McConnell’s MO. No doubt he was counting votes. He had enough “no” votes to kill this thing without appearing to kill it, so the other senators were allowed to vote “yes” and look like good guys. But if he needed another vote to kill it, he’d have forced another Repub to take the hit, be a maverick, and vote no. For the most idealistic of reasons, of course.
When you talk about draining the sewer, you’re talking Repubs as well as Dems.
Oh look.
Another leftist agenda piece written by a Uniparty hack attempting to appear conservative on the face while rallying the left-wing agenda in the underlying structure.
I have no idea why the republicans tolerate not toeing the line. I can't wait til "Maverick" is taking his well deserved dirt nap.
McCain was hostile to Donald Trump from the beginning.
Many have said his best decision was to make Sarah Palin his running mate in 2008.
Beyond that its excrement.
At least we will have something good to remember this guy by if he passes away soon.
There’s too much garbage in his background that many see as treason.
I don’t know how one can process his support of the jihadists in Libya and Syria without saying “treason” and seeing his as someone who helped create Islamic State and all the misery they brought to the world.
I doubt that it’s his final “f-you”.
He’s still alive and will do more damage, yet.
Despicable fraud.
McCain, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski
Don’t forget McCain’s abandoning of VietNam POWs when he had the power to help them in Congress.
McCains passing can’t come soon enough.
Good riddance to him.
“Many have said his best decision was to make Sarah Palin his running mate in 2008.”
Don’t fool yourself. It was a calculated move that McCain did not want to do. The Goons like Schmidt and his little twit sidekick Wallace assumed this would sink the campaign before it got started because she was a nobody that nobody would vote for, or support. She was raising havoc in the RINO ranks in Alaska and they had to move her out before she totally cleaned house.
Think about it, her biggest detractors ammo came directly from Wallace and Schmidt leaking to the media.
I can’t believe I voted—and even campaigned—for this jackass.
That’s true.
They’re all against it.
Those seats are safe, they were allowed to vote no, this is all more of the same BS theater, because all they know how to do.
Cancel the insurance policies of every single congresscritter. Refuse to sign the check.
If they can’t provide health insurance for the citizens, they don’t get it either.
McCain can go out of pocket like the rest of us.
I never have.
Oh, sure, there were probably 6 other Rs who would have filled the slot. But I’m sure McCain was eager to flip the bird at America one last time.
You’re probably right. Pray that the American People have the wisdom to vote all the RINOs out of office.
