“The kids at St. Jude matter more to me.”

If you’re referring to Eric and Lara Trump being bullied in to ending their multi-million-dollar charitable work for St. Jude’s — I have to agree with you. The kids matter more.

Well let’s hope for the best, as far as Linda is concerned, I wont expect much.
Unless it’s a grab for the “MAVERICK” label for tv face time.

Maybe he should be treated at the Phoenix VA hospital. If survives wait time, the doctors will tell him its inoperable, and give him 6 weeks to live. Thats what they did to my dad with the same type of brain tumor.

The only difference was he was in the Seattle VA hospital.

Yep, my best friend - the guy I grew up with, knew since I was 3 - his wife was at work one day and had trouble remembering things and had trouble speaking. In TWO WEEKS she was dead. Just like that *snap*. Went into a coma and she was gone. It was absolute hell, as if she had been murdered. It’s beyond a terrible disease.

Merely an “icing on the cake” situation.

St Jude is only of the only places I give money to anymore. I toured one facility a few years back and it left me crying in the parking lot like a little baby - something that very rarely happens. The staff was dedicated and the kids were so brave.

Indeed. Prayers that he repent before check out time. He has done a lot of damage in forty years of politics.

“What are the odds his daughter tries to get his seat.”

From what I’ve seen and heard of Meghan, she is much more conservative than Juan. And she’s smarter. Still... the nepotism thing. It’s icky.

People here are being more than nice enough to this guy.

If you want fake praise, then you are being unrealistic.

Some days I just think the world is becoming a better place. Just make sure he is well medicated for the duration. Fentanyl works well I’m told.

Met Megan during the McCain campaign, pleaded with her to have her Dad speak out against Obama, she kind of shushed me and said he was doing a great job.
She really thought she was something.

I think most democrats have serious medical issues. No joke.

I’d guess 70 percent are mentally ill, about 20 percent are dumb as a bricks, and the final 10 percent on in on this colossal leftist sham of attempting to undermine, weaken and subvert the United States.

Agreed. I wouldn't wish brain cancer on anyone as much as I am at political odds with McCain.

He should resign and spend his remaining days with his family. That's what most people (not drunken with power) would do.

” that explains a lot of his insane statements and insane positions .”

What’s Pelosi’s excuse? Maybe she needs a checkup.

I give him 90 days, tops.

A little over one year ago, my mother-in-law died of this type of cancer. She was initially diagnosed 18 months earlier. She was around the senator's age, too. He may last longer than she did, because he's "somebody important" and no expense will be spared.

I wish him a full recovery and a comfortable (and immediate) retirement.

Honestly, I suspected this was more than a blood clot - but I never considered the possibility that the old coot may actually have to step down. I always figured that he'd slowly fossilize in his Senate chair.

Eric Trump has raised boatloads of money for St. Jude’s....his own money and the money of others. I believe a wing was even named after him.

Of course, the media will never mention this fact.

They can’t report anything that would cast the president or a member of his family in a good light.

“last few years”?
Are you Forgetting the Keating scandal of the 80’s, that goes back more than a “few years”.

Poor Senator MacCain.
Incredible timing for sympathies in light of this Huge scandal:
Illegal Billion dollar Syrian (ISIS/Al-Nursa) rebel weapons project Timber Sycamore - a McCain & Graham pet project exposed for being the biggest scandal / bigger than the Iran Contra Scandal, in the black market arms trafficking world.

Read this article link to see just how big and ugly: http://www.voltairenet.org/article197144.html

*bottom line: Obama, Hillary, and McCain created, funded, trained, and supplied ISIS to overthrow Assad in order to permit Qatar and Saudi Arabia to build a new Gas pipeline to Europe to compete with Putin’s Energy dominance.

ISIS MURDERED THOUSANDS of innocent people, thanks to McCain.
It should be no surprise.
He’s demonstrated a knack for burning people since his Vietnam pilot days.

I do hope that we can put aside our personal differences with McCain and realize that he is a person, and while I disagree with him, he has served this country most of his life. I believe he loves this country. I wish him a full recovery.

I see some comments that disappoint me like, and I know we can be better than this. Think how hurtful it is and disgusted we are when liberals make nasty comments when we lose someone we care about. I ask that we be better.
