Senator John McCain’s New Book Attacks Trump On Refugees, Fake News
Deadline ^ | May 3, 2018 | Bruce Haring

Posted on 05/04/2018 7:27:32 AM PDT by Trump20162020

Senator John McCain’s new book, The Restless Wave, has released excerpts published by Apple News.

The former presidential candidate, who is battling brain cancer, said that his current term is his last, allowing him to open up about the current political climate.

A Republican who has nonetheless battled President Trump in many cases, McCain was unsparing of the Commander in Chief in the book.

“He has declined to distinguish the actions of our government from the crimes of despotic ones. The appearance of toughness, or a reality show facsimile of toughness, seems to matter more than any of our values.”

Books destined for the remainder bins followed by a trip to the recyclers or to the landfills.

This just goes to show: A loser is a loser.

McCain could have won against Obama in 2008. Instead, he took the “high road” and just rolled over and played dead. Romney too.

The only value McCain cares about is how much he gets from the Cheap Labor Express to sell out his countrymen.

The kenyan’s doormat. I’ll never forget the “I won” pimp slap Obama gave McCain at the obamacare summit. Apparently, old Juan doesn’t remember it. Once McCain is gone and no longer attacking POTUS he will go back to being a nobody for Democrats.

When McCain says that Trump does not respect “our values” I must assume he means the Democrats values McCain represents by his voting record.

Envy. Thinks he should have been president instead. Has no clue about why that didn’t happen. Appears ready to be remembered as a bitter old man, if that’s what it takes to be remembered.

In the end, that is the real difference: Trump fights.

They were both Designated Losers, both played their part willingly to bring about the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

BOTH parties colluded to violate the Constitution.

Wonder who actually wrote it? The beer heiress? Linda? A staffer? A ghostwriter?

He never intended to win.
He is the only candidate I know of that endorsed his opponent.
