CNN’s Mudd: “Pisses Me Off” That Trump Failed to Mention McCain at Signing Ceremony
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/14/2018 4:29:29 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Phil Mudd can go from 0-60 faster than a Ferrari. After a long, measured, discussion on CNN this morning about the firing of Peter Strzok [Mudd thought it was the right decision], co-host John Berman invited Mudd, a former CIA and FBI official, to comment on President Trump’s failure to mention John McCain during a signing ceremony of the defense authorization bill named in his honor.

Mudd became immediately enraged, going off on this epic rant:

“Are you kidding me? Let me get this straight. So the President has insulted everybody from former Presidents Bush and Obama, Rex Tillerson, Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina. The guy’s got the temperament of a second-grader. My mom would have washed my mouth out with soap, and we sit there and say it’s okay if he does it because he’s been doing it for 72 years. You can’t even spend 10 seconds to thank a guy who’s on his deathbed? Really? That’s what we have to go tell a kid is what is presidential? Unbelievable, John. I mean, it just pisses me off.”

You’ve got to watch the clip to see how instantaneously Mudd goes off!

Mudd is a traitorous POS like Strzok. He only sees his end coming too.

Speaking of getting pissed off, I’m going to say something that will probably anger some of my fellow FReepers.

I think President Trump should have praised McCain. Whatever their disagreements, however Trump feels McCain has stabbed him in the back, the fact is that the guy is on his deathbed, and spent years in the Hanoi Hilton, refusing to be released so long as his buddies were being held.

There are some things a President is called to do, and Trump should have risen to the occasion. It would have cost him nothing, and to the contrary, reflected well on him as well as on McCain.

My question is why is a defense bill named after a Senator, or anyone.

And by the way, the unhinged behavior of this ex-CIA/FBI person speaks volumes as to problems in those agencies.

Earlier in the same segment, Mudd surprisingly said that firing Strzok was the right thing to do.

Poor baby. McCain has been sabotaging Trump for two years, failed to support killing Obamacare, and back-stabbing the Trump administration in general. Screw McInsane.

It’s better to be Pee’d off than to be Pee’d on like McCain has been doing to America for 60 years.

2000 - He was the great “maverick”

2008 - He was a racist Hitler.

2018 - He is a elder statesman and hero.

Yeah, ok.

Hey - he named the bill up front - maybe they can console themselves if they hear that all the good words about all the good things that could be done with the money were "front-end-attributed" to McPain...

Trump prefers to honor those who kill the enemy and save their own comrades, instead of killing his own comrades and having his daddy save his own sorry ass from the repercussions...

When McCain was running against their Messiah, HE was being labeled as a Fascist/Nazi....not buying this sudden love for the Bush/Romney/McCain Beast....

Obama was pretty adept, if I remember correctly of failing to say Donald Trump’s name in several instances.

Sorry. Songbird earned it, Phil.

Particularly when he cost people lots of money by stopping the repeal of ObaMaoCare with a single thumbs down (remember that?).

He is covering for himself as he feels the noose tightening. He is up against his old comrades in arms who are beginning to bring justice to thse traitors.

“There are some things a President is called to do, and Trump should have risen to the occasion. It would have cost him nothing, and to the contrary, reflected well on him as well as on McCain.”

Well, there are some things senators are called to do as well; such as keep their word. McCain ran against Obama Care and pledged to vote to rescind it when it came up for a vote. Then, when it came time to vote what did McCain do? He walked out on the floor at 2:00 in the morning, the last senator to vote, gave the senate a thumbs down, then turned around and walked off. As far as I’m concerned he gave not only every Republican Senator a big fat finger, he gave it to over half of America as well. It was an unforgivable act. I don’t blame Trump for stiffing him at yesterday’s ceremony. He deserved it.

In cnn’s opinion nobody outside the radical left can do anything right.
