Daily Mail: Donald Trump Dared to Golf 17 Hours After John McCain Died
Big Journalism ^ | 8/26/18 | Joel B Pollack

Posted on 08/26/2018 5:09:53 PM PDT by markomalley

The UK Daily Mail expressed shock and horror Sunday at the fact that President Donald Trump waited only 17 hours after the death of Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) to play a round of golf, as he typically does Sunday (and as President Barack Obama did before him).

The Daily Mail reported, with original ALL CAPS: “Donald Trump returns to the golf course just 17 HOURS after the death of John McCain as he faces criticism for failing to properly honor GOP giant’s life and legacy.”
According to the article, written by Megan Sheets, Trump was guilty of having merely posted a “meager tweet with his condolences” before returning to golf nearly a full day later.

So?

The truth is that Trump knows everything there is to know about the late Senator.

I'd play golf too.

I’m getting ready to do some laundry, some 27 hours after he died. I hope that’s OK with the DM. And I took off my black veil earlier today. Rhett Butler promised me it was OK.

I sure hope they canceled all of the NFL games today. Nobody should enjoy anything because McNuts is dead.

Was Trump on the course all by himself? Were there other people there? If so, why didn’t they get named, and reported by the media?

McCain is nothing to Trump. An “enemy”, at best. He tried to use the bogus dossier to bring Trump down. Trump doesn’t owe McCain anything, whatsoever.

Everything Trump has said about McCain, is true...he was NO “hero”.

Life goes on.

Obama golfed right after the beheading of Nick Foley. Straight from the podium and giving a speech to the 1st tee. There are even articles about how in times of crisis he would go golfing. The msm didn't bat an eye.

With everyone at the McCain funeral Trump should be able to get a good tee time at Congressional. I’m just sayin’.

What’s he supposed to do? Get on Air Force One and go sit Shiva with Cindy? I’m sure Trump honoured the late Senator McCain in his own private way— by paying as much attention to him now that he’s dead as he did when alive.

What would John McCain have done if Pres Trump predeceased him? A dramatic thumbs down as in Obamacare betrayal of voters? A joining in with the media dancing on his grave? Pres Trump does not owe the media a thing, including giving them more to howl about because whatever he says will be twisted into a negative to feed their insatiable hate for him.

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

That explains the media beatification of the narcissistic old bastard.

As if John McCain was all that special.

He lost an election against a guy who hadn’t even served one full term in the Senate.

17 hours after ?

I wonder what held him up.

Also, “Dared to golf 17 hours after” should read “Failed to golf 10 hours after”

Good point. To this day we don’t know what he did, said or ordered that date. I think he and reggie were doing the nasty!
