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.”

> McCain should just go back to supporting Al-Qeada/ISIS in Syria...
Go back? Hell I think most of Congress supports ISIS and the illegal immigrant invasion. The Why (against all common sense and reason)?
I’m thinking stuffed envelopes on a weekly basis at minimum for all the treason they need to vote against The People’s will over and over again. We need an audit of the Congress members finances including offshore accounts and trust funds set up in other family member’s or shell entity names.
Don’t forget to mention the spittle that forms at the corners of his mouth when he speaks.
I think it’s Trump event in AZ.
[wow, bet you’re tee totaling legalist, aren’t you?]
Terms like “tee totaling legalist, crazies, etc. are derogatory words used to define a person in a negative way.
The endearing word “crazies” is not only being tossed about by MSM and John McCain, it is being embedded into the minds of public school and university students. We are being “defined.”
I was in attendance at a GOP planning committee not long ago and the host disdainfully declared, “We need to get rid of the “ilk” in the party.” He was referring to Conservatives. I thought, “Hey! He’s talking about me!”
I challenge you: Ask 3 young people on the street to define the Tea Party or Conservative with one word. 9/10 they will respond with “Crazies.” It is the new buzzword.
“Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me” is a fallacy. Words mean something. “Crazies” is meant to diminish Conservatives in the sphere of public policy.
So when I call him “SONGBIRD”, can I say that?
Wrong word. They're using "BIGOT" now.
True.
It’s a term of affliction. Juan is deeply troubled.
John McCain is a despicable little mean spirited loser. He lobs bombs at others and then when they strike back he falls on the war hero crap.
you’re making a ridiculous argument about what we agree on...which is that it certainly was meant as derogatory. DUH. I get it.
For the record, tee totaling is not derogatory, unless you take offense at it. Legalist may or may not be derogatory, and in this case, that is how it was intended.
However, while all curse words are derogatory, altho not in some uses, not all derogatory words are curse words.
(I was right about the tee totaling, wasn’t i?)
Term of endearment. Yeah, sort of like “wacko birds.” We’ve known for years who butters McCain’s bread. Unfortunately, the innocents of AZ don’t.
So typical of a tyrant. Never admitting you made a mistake.
A crazy calling crazies, crazy, is crazy.
I’d say to McCain, “GFY.”
Then I’d tell him GFY didn’t mean Good For You.
Then he’d say, like, “GMTA.”
And I’d go, “Good Morning To All” from me, too.
And he’d say, “LOL.”
And I’d be like, “Lots of Luck to you, too.”
Double talk is easy.
Thousands of veterans were in Trumps audience as supporters at the Phoenix venue and on nationwide television.
McCain called thousands of U.S. Veterans mentally ill “Crazies”.
[not all derogatory words are curse words.]
I’ll agree with that. They are derogatory words.
[I was right about the tee totaling, wasn’t i?]
Almost... I’m a coffee-drinking Pentecostal.
not much on the first miracle in the Bible, are you?
[Not much on the first miracle in the Bible, are you?]
The Bible doesn’t forbid people from drinking. I choose not to drink.
Well good for you.....seriously, and I agree with you.....but you have to admit, lot of folks think it is forbidden.
