I'm going to bring in some conspiracy theory. The puppetmasters saw Trump's numbers coming in at 30%. There had to be an "outrage" to rally the public against him, fast. Trump gave them red meat with the McCain comments, a way to mobilize veterans against Trump. (reverse swift-boating). Get the most easily manipulated other potential candidates (Jeb, Rubio, Perry) to express OUTRAGE against Trump's unfitness to be CIC.

It's the same way they used the horrific slaughter in Charleston to take down the Confederate flag.

Big difference. Blacks rallied around the fake issue in Charleston. But this time, it was a miscalculation. Nobody likes McCain so it just might have backfired.

Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Maybe the media should try a new tactic. That would be reporting the news instead of being told how to control it.

It's now an issue of do you want Trump or do you want to be yanked around forever? This might be our last chance to break the stranglehold the elite and their media lapdogs have on us.

“Nobody likes McCain so it just might have backfired.”

Nobody likes McCain except voters in his state, who have elected him seven straight times, with no losses.

Last time when challenged from the right, McCain defeated Hayworth 56% to 32% in the primary.

Don’t underestimate or write off McCain. Too often I notice conservatives running at the mouth, stuff which is not true.

So when you say “nobody likes McCain” in reality you mean nobody in your interest group likes McCain.

Nationwide for every five Republicans there are eight Independents.

If Trump (or any other Republican) is serious about winning anything, he needs a lot of people that vote for McCain and others like him.

Of course, this outrage is entirely manufactured by the GOPe. If you listen to what Trump actually said it was a minor gaff that he immediately corrected. GOPe is lying and those jumping on Trump are liars and they know it. But lying is just part of politics today, sadly.
