EXCERPT
He stressed the importance of the Senate, issuing what appeared to be a warning to President Donald Trump.
"We are not the president's subordinates. We are his equal," McCain said of the legislative branch.
McCain also spoke at length about the at-times acrimonious relations within the Senate and urged his colleagues to work across the aisle.
"Our deliberations can still be important and useful, but I think we can all agree that they haven't been overburdened by greatness lately," he said.
"Stop listening to the bombastic loudmouths on the radio and television and the internet. To hell with them!" he said in a line that was met by applause.
"What have we to lose by trying to work together to find those solutions?" he asked.

You sure bent over for Obama when he was in the White House.
Warning,eh! Guess there’s no epiphany for him. Gonna go out the same brain-rotted a-hole he’s always been.
Seems like that claimed "blood clot" surgery fully restored the remote control implant he's had since his Hanoi Hilton days.
FWIW-
Looks like the straw-man that McCain was swinging on nailed him back, and good! I guess he’ll get a pass. This is John McCain’s dramatic sign-off.
McBorg looks like he has his first assimilation surgery too!
I'll bet the Borg surgeons had to install a brain before he can be controlled.
Can’t wait for him to see Jesus.
That has to be the most poignant comment on the thread.
The 3 branches are equal; however the Congress is made up of 100 Senators and 365 Representatives who collectively = the 1 POTUS.
He can”t croack soon enough. Vile POS,
Go back and read it again. The whole Senate and House are equal to the other branches not just the Senate, and certainly not this POS individually. I hate this bastard and so should every Republican and conservative. He should drop dead already. He has spent his entire career being a vile Quisling. I really believe he was injured in the plane crash, not by the VC,and his daddy’s status made him a well cared for prisoner. I also believe that story about incinerating other servicemen on the Forestal, and other stunts in the service, and his part in the Keating Five scandal. Read that. SOB John McCain. Closet Democrat and media darking. I regret having voted for the cheap punk for President.
Yup. The damn House of Lords. Everything supporters of Trump like us want to flush down the toilette.
He is a damn maggot. He should drop dead already.
Yup. McCain shot down by ground fire. Flying too low. Not a SAM.
Reportedly made more pro N V recordings than Jane Fonda (20 of them.)
No wonder Jeremiah Denton gave McCain short shrift in When Hell Was In Session.
And no wonder Reagan detested him.
Sarah Palin bought McCain a decade of political life.
For an old guy he still is a media whore who needs his time in the spotlight. It is those that can listen, vote, and move on who are secure of themselves. This was a big act he was not going to miss. He thinks he is Willis Reed if the NY Knicks coming out of the tunnnel after everyone thought all hope was lost: Watch them roll his hospital bed down the aisle to a standing ovation. It’s a game everybody think they have to play to kiss his ass. I met the man. He is a small little grouch.
