He sees the public reaction to Cruz, and is trying to cover his ass.

Did McCain endorse Trump?

He had too many corporate lobbyist checks to cash this week.

Also heard he had a play date with Linda.

(Don’t tell his wife)

More likely McCain was helping al Qaeda or ISIS.

I’ve heard others hint at this as well. Does Sarah Palin live in Arizona now; can she run for office there?

McCain is going to be 80 next month.

What a narcissistic old bat.

A term is 6 years. He'll be 86 when that term finishes. IF he lives that long. Why not just bow out now?

Juan will not be re-elected. He’s going the way of Paul Ryan.

Serves them both right.

John McCain probably will live that long. Have you seen McCain’s mother? She’s over 100 and still going strong. McCain has the long-living genes. So he’s probably going to live a long time, I’d just prefer he live a long time outside the U.S. Senate.
