Donald Trump “fired up the crazies” in his state when he held a rally in Phoenix last weekend, Arizona Sen. John McCain said in a recent interview. During that appearance (and others last weekend), Trump was joined by the father of Jamiel Shaw, who was killed by an undocumented immigrant.

Trump has tapped into “some anger” in the state over the conditions at the border, McCain told The New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza in an article published Thursday.

“It’s very bad,” the Republican senator said. “This performance with our friend out in Phoenix is very hurtful to me,” McCain said. “Because what he did was he fired up the crazies...”

AZ has as many crazies per square foot as any place else: McPain is proof of that.

Did McWeevil ever figure out how Penny [Obama Secretary of Commerce] Pritzker’s Chicago family-owned Superior Bank went bust in 2001 from its innovations in sub-prime ACORN farming?

No? FAIL

[McCain seems to think that we’re all still buying into the R team vs D team smoke and mirrors.]

My pastor told our congregation the 2016 election is not about Republicans, Democrats, Independents - it’s about voting your faith.

(He also told them he warned them about the consequences of voting for a pro-abortion president and if they voted for him, they needed to repent.)

I didn’t know Neil Bush said that: I remember reading that the popular Pat Schroeder of CO was always blasting Neil.

Did anyone hear that Meghan McCain will be starting on Monday a program on Talk radio? Joe Paqs was talking about it last night!

And another loser tries to say something he thinks people will listen to but he makes the mistake of repeating the GOPe talking points. And not with any eloquence. One thing you can hang your hat on, Trump made his money and Juan married his. No better then the other fool Kerry. Just another political hack that has long ago worn out his heroism.

McCain had no intention of winning the election in 2008. He was selected to fail with his full understanding. Sarah Palin was brought onboard so MCain could raise money from the "crazies" off her back, which he then used to fund his 2010 Senate primary. He certainly didn't use it to trying to defeat King Douche. If we all recall, he went to ground in the last two months of the campaign, when it started to look like he might actually win.

The only "crazies" are the people who bought McCain's "war hero" BS. McCain is like a decrepit old Hillary himself (and that's saying something!). He never comes "home," and if he does dare venture back to AZ, he only shows his face in locations where he knows the crowd has been hand-picked as friendlies...places like KFYI, who are the mouthpieces for this tired old f***.

Over 50 posts and not one post from the Freepers who apparently agree with McCain and bash Trump supporters on a daily basis.

not that the base will eventually vote for Trump...

What makes you say that? The base is crazy. McCain told us so.

IMHO, it is time to send some campaign cash to Kelli Ward, who is challenging McCain in the Primary.

McCain calling someone crazy is like ISIS calling people brutal.
