John McCain says Donald Trump is helping Putin 'shatter' NATO alliance with Montenegro comments
Newsweek ^ | July 18, 2018 | Cristina Maza

Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona lashed out at President Donald Trump on Wednesday for Trump's recent comments about NATO's collective defense obligations.

In an interview with Fox News on Tuesday evening, in response to a question by host Tucker Carlson, Trump echoed Carlson's concerns about whether the U.S. should defend a small country like Montenegro if it were to come under attack. McCain, who is known to be hawkish on Russia, accused Trump of toeing the Kremlin line.

“The people of #Montenegro boldly withstood pressure from #Putin’s Russia to embrace democracy. The Senate voted 97-2 supporting its accession to #NATO. By attacking Montenegro & questioning our obligations under NATO, the President is playing right into Putin’s hand,” McCain tweeted on Wednesday, the day after Trump’s interview.

> John McCain says
Sure. His twitter account tweeted, but I think the last time he is known to have said something is December.

John McCain has probably been dead for months. All this chatter is Cindy, Meghan and his loyal McCainiac staffers. PROVE ME WRONG. Habeus Corpus.

The cancer has been eating at John’s brain for quite sometime now.

Yes we all know the threat to Montenegro is the most pressing issue we face. Btw I have no problem with them in NATO because I don’t think they are the most likely country to be attacked anyway. But Trump hardly threatened NATO’s existence.

Trump is all that consumes McCain now in his waning days.

McCain is sick in many ways. A normal person with terminal cancer would be most concerned with his salvation. Instead, this old bastard is full of hate.

McCain is mourning the passing of his beloved ISIS Islamists at the hands of Russians and Americans and their local Syrian and Kurdish allies.

I believe that John should be headed for his dirt nap .... oh, and take your PR morons along with you. If you can sober Cindy up - you might invite her to take a lead from many Hindu widows.

This is really getting funny.

Bob Woodward only made up a few quotes by William Casey on his deathbed.

This McCain thing is whole essays.
