NO!

Chuckie Schumer could at least let him cool off before starting his crusade to replace the name on a Senate building of a conservative Democrat with a liberal Republican.

Just don’t put up a statue somewhere. Democrats will just pull it down.

Schumer, a Democrat, wants to honor McCain, a Republican? That tells you a lot right there.

Does Russell opposing the Civil Rights Act(s) make him a conservative?

Was it just liberals that supported the Civil Right Act(s)?

Now that he’s dead, liberals love McCain.

Of course,because he was s thorn in the side of conservatives when he was alive.

Completely predictable.

Remember Provo’s Privy? It sings.

There has to be something that fits McCain better.

Liberals love McCain because he hated Trump till the end.

And McCain single-handedly saved demise of Obamacare.

And McCain passed the Trump Dossier to Comey at FBI.
