‘McCain knows that his days are numbered’
Does he? People say he’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer. To hear him talk, it’s as if he believes this is just one more challenge—and medical advances are on his side.
‘”I’m facing a challenge, but I’ve faced other challenges,” McCain said. “And I’m very confident about getting through this one as well.”
The Arizona Republican, who was diagnosed with brain cancer in July, said he will receive a magnetic resonance imaging test on Monday and expressed optimism about his condition.
“I’m fine,” McCain told anchor Jake Tapper. “The prognosis is pretty good. Look, this is a very vicious form of cancer that I’m facing, but all the results so far are excellent.”’
