Sen. John McCain on Sunday praised President Donald Trump's national security selections, declaring "I couldn't have picked a better team."

In an interview with ABC News' "This Week," the Arizona Republican also said he intended to vote to confirm Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

"I have the utmost confidence in General [James] Mattis, General [Michael] Flynn, General [John] Kelly, Dan Coates," McCain said of Trump's Defense Secretary, national security adviser, Homeland Security Secretary and director of national intelligence, respectively.

"I couldn't have picked a better team. So I'm confident that he'll listen to them and be guided by them."

I have to agree with McNasty here, he couldn’t have picked a better team.
His cabinet would have been a nightmare.

Someone has indisputable intelligence about what this demented old POS has been up to with IS, in UKraine, Libya, and in Russia

And maybe more than an audio recording of his time in Hanoi

McCain got hoisted by his own petard, after he handed over that file to our intelligence agencies.

I’ll bet his eMails are running 10,000/1 against his treachery.

McConnell may have slipped him a note with the threat of a speedy return to Arizona, for good.

Yeah, but will this POS support Trump’s SCOTUS nominee?

You nailed it D.O. McCain tried to smear Trump with that fake dossier and now he is playing nice. Which is great, because getting the Trump agenda through the Senate is his #1 challenge.

McTraitor thought he had a kill shot with the Russian BS Hotel story, instead he got trying to shove a knife into a President’s back. Like the saying goes if you shoot the King you better kill him.

So true, because as a paid tool of the war mongering, globalist NWO cabal he would have been ordered to pick a team of similar war mongering tools of the cabal instead of the America First team Trump is assembling.

Uh oh.

If McCain likes it, in my view, there must be something wrong with it.

Now Trump owns him just kinda like Michael Corleone owned that corrupt US Senator who said bad stuff to him.
