Earlier this month 20,000 conservative supporters joined Donald Trump in Arizona at a campaign rally.

In response to this enormous crowd, Senator John McCain said Trump “fired up the crazies.”

McCain says he won’t apologize– On today’s Morning Joe, John McCain refused to apologize to the thousands of Arizonans attending a Trump rally that McCain called “crazies.” According to McCain, “crazies” is a “term of endearment” and a “term of affection.”

“F*CK YOU” is my “Term of Endearment” to MacStain!

[BeadCounter]

McCain got this whole thing started and likewise, he has name-called others as someone here said, I remember him calling Rand Paul and Ted Cruz,”whackobirds”.

Name-calling is a human tendency, most of us do this. Doesn’t mean it is okay.

What event is this?

[Dr. Thorne]

Regarding McCain's history as a "war hero", I have no proof of this except that he survived.

He is certainly a liar and scumbag now. Why would I doubt that he was a liar and scumbag during his stay at the Hanoi Hilton?

[“term of endearment” and a “term of affection.”]

Call it what it is - a curse word.

[C. Edmund Wright]

yeah, wacko birds was term of endearment too.....

...so I guess when we had nothing to fear from an Obama presidency, that was really an attack from McCain?

[C. Edmund Wright]

uh, I don’t consider crazies a curse word......

[paratrooper82]

You beat me to the punch:

Here is another term of endearment for Mclame:

Go F—K yourself Mclame and Gramnesty (donkey) you ride in the US Congress!!

I would like to say more, but, I don't want to lift up Mclame anymore!

[trisham]

Arrogant clod.

I guess calling the Swiftboat Vets liars on national tv was a an expression of love.

[EagleUSA]

I wonder if McCain ever figured out WHY he lost to the likes of Obama???

Hey McCain: If these people are crazy, so were Jefferson, Washington, Madison, Franklin, Adams and all the signers of the D of I.

[Raycpa]

Your no hero, just a power grubbing politician but I love you john.

[Karl Spooner]

It was just an ‘act of love’.
