Al Gore went to Vietnam as a “journalist with body guards.

I found it fishy that there were photos of him and his daddy walking down a path when Gore was supposedly explaining why he had to go serve his Country.

[.trump dodged the draft] Trump never dodged the draft, his classification never was 1A. Even if President Trump had volunteered with feet bone spurs, he would have washed out of basic training because he could not walk anywhere near the distances required of trainees. It was my job in the Army to test and qualify or reject
those sent by the draft board and those wanting to enlist in the Army.

Trump will destroy McCain! He has the soapbox.
If i were Trump id start talking about McCains Tokyo Rose recordings and i would juxtapose him with pictures of Jane fonda!

Yep agree ..... he blamed it on the huffer cart. McLame has to go for the bone spur on the foot being the little ankle biter for the socialist democrats he’s ALWAYS been.

Songbird needs to resign for the good of the “all polidiots”...

I don’t blame anyone for dodging Vietnam. My brother had a high lottery number but I had told him if he got a low number, I would send him to Canada. 58,000 dead for what?

So I can get my nails done cheap.

Remember the photo of Gore “on patrol”?
No magazine in his M16!
No grenades!
No webbing, etc.
Basically kitted out to mow the lawn, not go on “patrol”!

This is your circus midget doing this on TV! Get off your damn rears and melt the phones lines at his office!


We’re doing the best we can!! McCain is greatly despised here in AZ, especially after this last election in which he repeatedly lied about repealing Obmacare. A lot of people are trying to call. His lackeys are not answering the phones anymore, they’re such cowardly @ssholes. Email is the only way to get through anymore.

And on behalf of Arizona, I apologize for this disgraceful POS who is clearly out of his mind with rage and doesn’t care who or what he damages in his craven lust to destroy Trump.

Just remember: A pathetic POS like McCain is NOT going to take out DJT, he won’t even land a tiny scratch on him. McCain’s days are numbered, and the number is getting smaller and smaller.

Somebody spoon-feeding dirt on Trump to Juan McCainez?

The article is from WaPo, owned by Bezos, who received $600K from the CIA.

for somebody who’s daddy and granddaddy ensured he got a commission through the Naval Academy, McCain should speak a little softer, before he starts to sound like an elitist snob

“In the interview, McCain pointed to wealthy Americans who were able to get out of being drafted into service in the conflict in which he spent years as a prisoner of war. And he pointed to a very specific type of deferment which Trump just happened to use.

“One aspect of the conflict, by the way, that I will never ever countenance is that we drafted the lowest-income level of America, and the highest-income level found a doctor that would say that they had a bone spur,” McCain said. “That is wrong. That is wrong. If we are going to ask every American to serve, every American should serve.””

How does McCain know that the doctor lied and that Trump never had a bone spurs?

Clinton lied several times to avoid the draft. He used political connections to avoid serving. He lied about it afterwards.

Of all the people who avoided being drafted I believe that the only one McCain has ever criticized is Trump.

McCain is a mentally ill and evil man.

Who did YOU support in the primaries? I’m guessing it wasn’t Trump.

McCain would not hire an 81 year old sick doctor. The people of Arizona need to have someone other than an 81 ear old sick Senator.

I agree, McCain probably thinks he’s deeply wounded DJT. Couldn’t be further from the truth, bwhah hah hah!!!

Every time the despicable Juan McCain attacks DJT, it just shores up our loyalty to Trump, increases our contempt for McCain.

McCain is deranged and full-blown delusional. He is going full psychotic kamikaze in his final days.

>> the closer McCain comes death, the nastier and more deranged he becomes <<

Not so sure. It seems to me that he has long been just as nasty as he is now, and just as deranged. Nothing really new?

You’re not supposed to say things like that around here.

I think everyone here knows the reason why McCain got as far as he got during the elections was because of Sarah Palin. If she were not around, the results would be far, far worse.
