Arnold Schwarzenegger comes to John McCain's defense, body shames Trump
Washington Examiner ^ | 21-03-19 | Daniel Javita

Posted on 03/21/2019 7:23:45 AM PDT by Steve1999

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger came to the late Sen. John McCain's defense after President Trump spent the last week attacking his old critic. Schwarzenegger, 71, the Austrian-born politician who rose to fame with the U.S. by his roles in "Conan the Barbarian" and the "Terminator" movies, said the type of vitriol coming from the president is unbecoming of the office. “[McCain] was just an unbelievable person,” Schwarzenegger told the Atlantic. “So an attack on him is absolutely unacceptable if he’s alive or dead — but even twice as unacceptable since he passed away a few months ago. It doesn’t make any sense whatsoever to do that. I just think it’s a shame that the president lets himself down to that kind of level. We will be lucky if everyone in Washington followed McCain’s example, because he represented courage.”

I think POTUS knows what happened when McCain was a POW.

Video reminds me of the scene in Manchurian Candidate where Frank Sinatra gets asked about Laurence Harvey’s character, and the brainwashing kicks is:

“Raymond Shaw is the kindest, warmest human being I’ve ever known.”

McCain recited that “nothing to fear” line like it was programmed into his head.

Arnold claims attack on McCain is "unacceptable," implying he is against free speech and pro censorship regarding one's opinions. This from a man who cheated on his wife with the housekeeper.

Last time I saw a pic of Arnold, he had undergone really bad plastic surgery.

Trump looks bigger in the chest because he has to wear a bullet-proof jacket under his jacket.

If I’d been a questioner, I’d have said to McQueeg, “Why are you deliberately throwing this election ? What have you been promised for doing so ?”

Have you EVER seen such slobbering over a supposed opponent in your life ?

Y’know, I remembered how the people supporting Rudy Giuliani were effectively run off the board ahead of the 2008 primaries. Giuliani, for all of his problems, would’ve at least run to win — and he defeated an incompetent Black Communist for Mayor, so the race thing would not have deterred him.

Unbecoming of the office, like, what? Knocking up the housekeeper?

When Arnold started going left while in office it was puzzling to me; couldn’t figure out why all of a sudden the man was acting like a Democrat.

Then the thing about his affair and bastard child came out. Then after he was out of the office, the divorce.

Told my beloved that the affair and offspring was being used as leverage (yes, even by his wife) and when he was of no further use it was all put out in the open.

Lost respect for the man when he turned left. He should have just admitted to the affair and offspring.

When I want the advice of a high school drop out, I’ll talk to the kid on the corner, Arnold.

John McCain was an ill tempered, petty, angry, sanctimonious, bitter, thin skinned, smarmy, bully. He treated the last 2 Republican Presidents like trash while never saying a bad thing about Obama. He became the “problem” that is Washington DC. He was a career 37 year politician. He was part of the “cancer” killing the average American. He also was the Hanoi Songbird. He’ll only be missed by family and a few others,

Overrated Pilot - Overrated POW(Other Hanoi Hilton prisoners were awarded MOH. Not the Songbird) - Overrated Politician who did nothing to MAGA.

McPain? He saved Osamacare, that’s all you need to know. I’d spit on his grave.

Arnie? Officially dumber than his Simpson’s parody character.
