McCain does not deserve your forbearance. He was a nasty biter vindictive small man his whole career. Trump did not insult McCain. He told the truth. The truth is not an insult.

It is very interesting that you blame Trump when Raffensberger was covering up malfeasance, taping and doctoring a phone call illegally and leaking lies to the press.
What does it say about Kemp that he “looked the other way”? It says to me that Kemp must be dirty too and that Trump had spoken to Kemp and knew that the only chance was to call him out publicly, to put on the heat. Without knowledge of actual events and circumstances it is very arrogant to portray that you know better than Trump and if he had done things different you know what the outcome would have been.

I know all about Songbird, and not just from news articles. I was a Navy officer, too. I didn’t give McCain a pass.

I also don’t give any of the culprits in GA a pass. My point, which I made clearly for those willing to see, was that Kemp, another small man who couldn’t forgive a public upbraiding from Trump, would likely have been a lot more amenable to helping Trump stop the steal if Trump hadn’t been a gold-plated azzhole to him.

Leadership 101—praise in public, chastise in private. To do otherwise is to invite future problems. Trump still reasons like a child and is emotionally incontinent. If he thinks it, he’s got to say it. It is his fatal flaw, he still hasn’t learned any better, and it will come back to bite him again.

“McCain does not deserve your forbearance. He was a nasty biter vindictive small man his whole career. Trump did not insult McCain. He told the truth. The truth is not an insult.”

Trump should have saved his “truth” telling until after he got what we needed from McCain. He should have been sitting in the oval office counting votes every single day until the final floor vote and asking himself, who’s vote is at risk? How can I make sure they land on our side? What else can I do, say, promise to make sure this passes? Who do I need to call? Who do I need to meet with?

He bragged about being the ultimate deal maker and then sabotaged one of the most important deals to our country because he couldn’t control himself.
