Report: Trump lashes out at Australian PM on phone call
Autoplay: On | Off Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Thursday that he spoke to the Australian ambassador to express support for the nations' relationship after a heated call from President Trump.
"I called Australia’s Ambassador to the United States this morning to express my unwavering support for the U.S.-Australia alliance," McCain, who's frequently criticized Trump, said in a statement.
McCain added that he asked Joe Hockey, the Australian ambassador to the U.S., to "convey to the people of Australia" that Americans value their alliance, "honor the sacrifice of the Australians who have served and are serving by our side, and remain committed to the safer, freer, and better world that Australia does far more than its fair share to protect and promote.”

He hasn’t gotten my vote.
Deport him to Vietnam.
What is the matter with AZ conservatives??? They should be blasting this attention whore, who just can’t shut up.
Interloping Backstabber.
[Was he ever this adversarial with obama?]
You must have been asleep in 2008.
Here’s McCain’s “adversarial” response to a question about Obama....
So McCain violated the Hatch Act?
Phoenix, AZ city council will vote in a few days to officially declared itself a sanctuary city.
So what did we find out here. We found out that America is pulling in more Muslims than we the Americans understood. We found out that those people we thought were Australians were really Muslim refugees from bad acting countries. We found that these were people Australia themselves did not want.
This was an underhanded Obama deal that was designed to fool the American people and misreport who was coming into this country. Trump uncovered it and is mad. I am mad too.
I fully expect to hear that he will become a Democrat anytime now.
No doubt. Only thing holding him back is he needs one more to go along with him and his butt boy Lindsey.
C’mon natural causes and actuarial tables! Do it! Do it! Do it!
John is becoming senile; he weakens America with his troglodyte Washington thinking....his tantrum is hardly worthy of a U.S Senator.
McCain is an attention seeking lone wolf. He’s not a leader of anybody outside of Linda Graham.
Where do you get off making such an uninformed blanket statement about 2018?
Sit down and shut up!
Beat down desire strong in this one it is, says Yoda.
Rump Government.
We’re not taking the Syrians, John...
Looks like this extreme vetting EO was to also limit the influx of these Syrians that were committed to by Obama.
McCain... the new Teddy Kennedy, who made private forays to the Soviet Union.
Senator McCain, you are NOT the arbiter of US foreign policy bubba, and have ZERO business making a call to the Australian PM. Period. You are out of line you senile wannabee.
Time for a phone call from the President to the “maverick”.
We found that these were people Australia themselves did not want.
And most importantly they were seeking illegal entry to AUSTRALIA. Australia needs to pick up its own trash. No thanks.
