According to The Arizona Republic, McCain, before leaving Washington to get cancer treatments in Arizona, reportedly spoke to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) about joining forces again to pass the Gang of Eight bill. After joining Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) to defeat the GOPs skinny repeal of Obamacare, McCain, who has always wanted to be known as a straight-talking independent, was lionized by Democrats and the legacy media, with CNN paying homage to his maverick moment.
Referring to the Gang of Eight bill, McCain told the Republic on Thursday that he wanted to reintroduce the same package that was passed through the United States Senate and never taken up in the House.

In fact, yesterday I was getting my updated drivers license. Guy ahead of me, since we now register to vote at the drivers license office, was asked if he wished to designate a party. He said, well, I just want to register as anti Trump. As he was leaving I said, why not do us a favor and move back to South Carolina so you can vote for Lindasy. Trump carried this county by 74 to 26 or so just in case you think you are among like minded. He did not have a comment.
