This coming from the left who has embraced him and he they. He is a bitter old man who felt it was his turn to be president and like Hillary is blaming everyone around him

Ever hear McCain be equally critical, or really critical at all of a Democrat? No, he scores with the media because they can say, “well, he’s a conservative and he can’t stand Trump or Palin”. Its an old sellout trick - pretend to be something so you gain credibility by attacking your own side. The media used to do it with Harry Bridges, a card carrying Red who was head of the Longshoreman’s Union on the West Coast. A terrible human being, but he claimed he was a “Republican” which gave him instant cachet with the “press”. I can imagine McCain slobbering over the tributes to Driver/Diver Ted Kennedy when they opened his federally funded (it will be built with private contributions there just weren’t any) mausoleum in Boston.

McCain winning at anytime would have screwed up the Trump Presidency.

Trump knows his music.

After calling for the assassination of President Trump, suddenly the Left loons are calling for decency. This is validation that John McCain is a traitorous anti-American mole.

THERE’s the belly rub from the Left that McStain has labored all his political life to obtain!

I’d say McShame and John Kerry tie for greatest traitors of this country.

Here’s hoping that when he’s gone, a Republican will win his vacated seat.

Millbank is a long time WaPo scribbler who is consistently left wing. This lamentable screed is an exercise in bathos. A descent from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Attacking Palin and insulting others is just a hook to build the narrative foundation of John being the victim. Most people have a gut feeling about McCain I say trust your gut.

He is so great, that’s why all the lamestream media types loved and gave their full backing and editorial endorsements to him and Sarah Palin back in 2008, and why they all voted the Republican presidential ticket that year, likely for the first time ever.

Oh wait, none of those things happened, and Milbank is full of something very stinky.

Hard to believe anyone can be that stupid. Guess brainless people can make up whatever.

I remember the Straight Talk Express. In 1999 or 2000, Juan was touring the US in it. The DC Chapter greeted it at that year’s WHCA Correspondent’s Dinner with chants of RINO! RINO!.

Juan, seated in the bus, thought he was being cheered on until a staffer told him otherwise.

< grin>
