Trump was mentioned 9 times in the article. McCain himself was mentioned 12 times.

The road McCain now wished he had taken was the one that would lead him to an eternity with God.

I know I am being presumptuous; it’s possible he did come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ sometime prior to death.

Still, the probabilities are that he heard something similar to what’s in Matthew 7:23.

“’John taught us how to lose,’ his friend and colleague Sen. Lindsey Graham said on the Senate floor Tuesday.”

You know, as I’ve been mulling over what I WANT from the GOP in the future, what with McCain’s passing and all, I’m really surprised at myself for not realizing that LOSING is actually WINNING!

I guess I’ve had it wrong all of these years.

“’John taught us how to lose,’ his friend and colleague Sen. Lindsey Graham said on the Senate floor Tuesday.”

And that’s a good thing??? Remember what Trump said about him......I like WINNERS, not losers...or something like that.

‘that the United States had a responsibility to further freedom and human rights and freedom in the world, about which today’s leaders and voters seem indifferent.’

Isn’t the President trying to free North Koreans and didn’t he demand the release of a minister in Iran?

On the flip side who are the ones pictured with McCain in that photo from the Middle East??? People that believe in freedom???? Don’t think so...

Remembering McCain make me think of a colonoscopy. Thinking about him makes me sick, hearing about him and listening to the hogwash about his greatness is like the prep before, the worst part.

Having it over and forgetting about him is such a feeling of relief.

While the left is talking McCain/McCain/McCain, Trump needs to be pounding them on the issues.

Turkey has a Pastor too that Trump has been working hard through channels to get released. I think he was at least moved from a prison to a security house (or something like that). Erdogan is very stubborn though. He would rather see his entire country sanctioned rather than let one innocent Christian Pastor go.

Praise has been voiced by longtime political foes,

McCain's political foes were conservative Republicans.

The fact that Sarah Palin was not invited to the funeral speaker volumes about what a jerk McCain was. Palin has never said a harsh word against McCain, even though McCain and his staff sabotaged her.
