Trump goes after former POW McCain after he criticizes botched Yemen raid: 'He's been losing so long he doesn't know how to win anymore'
Senator John McCain said the op 'cannot be labeled a success' because a Seal and an American girl died
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer told reporters on Wednesday that the raid was 'absolutely a success' despite McCain's comments
Said criticizing Yemen mission does 'disservice' to dead Navy SEAL
President Donald Trump tore into Arizona Sen. John McCain this morning, claiming that the former prisoner of war has been 'losing so long he doesn't know how to win anymore.'
McCain and Trump have never seen eye-to-eye on foreign policy, and the Republican senator has been especially critical of the president's first special op, a raid in Yemen on an al Qaeda affiliate.
The White House has repeatedly said the assault was a 'success,' even though a Navy SEAL and an eight-year-old American girl died in the crossfire.
'While many of the objectives of the recent raid in Yemen were met, I would not describe any operation that results in the loss of American life as a success,' McCain rebutted.
Trump said Thursday morning that McCain should keep his opinions to himself - criticism of the operation 'only emboldens the enemy!' Yemen withdrew permission for some US Special Ops missions on Tuesday Decision comes after the botched raid that killed Yemeni civilians on January 29 Trump's first military order as president killed Navy SEAL William 'Ryan' Owens Yemen's ambassador said their cooperation shouldn't come at Yemen's expense

Something tells me that there is some information that McCain doesn't want out, and with President Trump and A.G. Sessions, it will come out...
Oh and don't forget about the time he said what he did to his first wife in a press conference, yelled at her and called her a ‘bitch’...yep we are not impressed with you and never have been...
Traitor to America and the American People is the label that Juan McCain should carry!!!
McCain is a loser. His fate sealed when he was shot and captured. He was used as propaganda fodder by the VC but did not need to wave his POW status around like a badge of courage and ride it into government idiocy. It takes no great skill to be riding in an airplane shot down by your enemy.
His only admirable quality is perseverance. As we have all seen, he just wont go away.
Breaking NEWS:
Soldiers died in Normandy invasion! The Senile Senator from Arizona, John McCain labels the effort unsuccessful. Calls WW2 “Not successful.”
Millions died and billions of dollars worth of aircraft, ships, and tanks destroyed.
McCain is absolutely worthless.
It was anwar al awaki’s daughter. American only because she was born here.
Using those metrics, most of the great American victories in our military history would not be labeled a success. What an idiot.
So in McCain’s tiny little brain-housing group, a KIA and a collateral casualty equals failure? Tragedy? Yes. Failure? No.
My brother-in-law Joe was killed in a raid to take down an HVT on December 24th, 2004. Joe was the only casualty in that raid and the team killed the HVT and several associates. If that pompous, pampered pussy McCain would like to tell me that raid was a failure, he’ll find out that the North Vietnamese weren’t all that bad after all.
In other words, F-you, you traitorous bastard!
Why do Arizonians keep botching up and electing McCain?
Perfectly said. Thank you.
Yes , but the people of Arizona keep voting for him . Sigh
I think McCain has the Maxine Waters on his Pelosi that has eroded his ability to polidiot anymore .... time for him to go Arizona.
So the battle of Okinawa in the Pacific war was a total failure, according to McCain’s peculiar standard.
What an ass

McCain = George Soros Minion
The only reason McStain was shot down was because he defied orders and flew BELOW the ceiling.
His squadron mates obeyed orders and flew ABOVE the ceiling. They were not shot down.
Then he blabbed to the enemy, hence their nickname for him “songbird.”
Saw an article a few days ago that listed McCain as one of the GOP Congressman Soros donated to. I’m starting to believe that McCain, Graham etc. are getting a lot MORE from Soros’ than we will ever know.
A great example of why term limits are a necessity, IMO.
