The amazing thing is that probably three-quarters of working-class democrats have a fairly low opinion of McCain, and nearly 90-percent of working-class Republicans feel the same way.
Did Ted Kennedy receive this amount of media coverage? I can’t think of any other deceased U.S. Senator receiving this much pomp. Maybe Robert F. Kennedy, but I wasn’t alive then, plus the coverage probably stemmed more from the circumstances surrounding his death than anything else.
Based on media reports, McCain will rise from the dead tomorrow.
This whole story feels like it’s been going on for 81 years.
A shame he’ll be more or less colocated in the vicinity of John Paul Jones.
Its about time.
McCains journey will end with a 6’ hole in the ground.
With fresh dirt thrown on top.
Ready to be “naturally fertilized”.
As often as possible.
He will be a distant memory by evening.
Hopefully the McCain legislation putting a muzzle on all efforts for MIAs is overturned and McCain’s own records are divulged.
Finally.
[The private ceremony....]
Thankfully.
Finally!!! The longest running funeral in history
The hate Trump festival otherwise known as the McCain funeral enters its 5th day. Burial today but the hate Trump narrative will continue unabated.
RIP,
turd.
A nauseating spectacle given to a cheap politician at our expense.
Where’s the “Well, bye” guy when we need him? Har!
I’m curious to know how he got permission for in ground burial as the eligibility requirements from The Naval Academy Cemetery web site and public statements from the Senior Curator and Historian of the Naval Academy Museum, Mr. Jim Cheevers indicate only Flag Officers and Midshipman while enrolled rate in ground burial.
The funeral at Annapolis is private, although the media will slobber all over pictures of the motorcade, etc. If the AZ Governor swiftly appoints McCain’s replacement to the Senate next week and it’s a solid Conservative who will without fail vote for Kavanaugh at a minimum, I think McCain will swiftly fade into obscurity. We do have to weather the film that he’s left as his final poke in Trump’s eye, but Trump is still alive and he’s President .... McCain is neither. Trump wins ... again.
Meghan McCain - conduct unbecoming and classless. McNasty would have approved, but the rest of us who voted for Trump do not - in my opinion, it was abhorrent. We won’t forget.
