It’s a specter that should stalk the nightmares of Republican leaders: a Senate chamber, packed on Christmas Eve, as lawmakers gather to decide the fate of a tax package that will shape the GOP’s political fortunes. The bill remains one vote shy, and then Sen. John McCain walks in, pauses before the desk, and delivers his second thumbs-down dagger of the year.
For that reason, the Arizona Republican, who is fighting a public battle with brain cancer, will be among his party’s most closely watched as the year winds down and the tax debate gears up. Yet over his decades in public life, McCain has traced a zigzagging line on the subject, leaving little clear indication of how he’ll approach a potentially decisive vote. A look at the senator's record on taxes shows that three things seem most important to him: public debate, some help for the middle class, and not exploding the deficit.

He will too.
He’ll fight the country and Trump until his last breath in office. He’s a vile, mean old man.
I fully expect him to. Hatred for Trump overrides the good of the country. Traitor to the core.
“Falling out the chair.............ahhhhhh!!!”
So will McLame soon and he’ll need a drool cup in about a month.
I'm not a psychiatrist.
That said, I suspect that McCain is also settling a score with US, the voters.
After all, we chose to not elect him, and did elect Trump.
He has no idea how, in the twilight of his career, just how much better he would look if he sided with our very fine country instead of a descent into petty envy and child-like jealousy.

McShamey is a lying, traitorous,coward
Build the wall and drop Nutball on the MX side.
I was thinking the same thing when he refused to let Sarah loose and refused to go after Obozo for fear of being called a racist. Hopefully that will never happen again.
It’s not Christian or good taste to wish for any man’s demise. That is the Lord’s turf. But if what the doctors have said about his cancer is true, he may not be a Senator on Christmas Eve.
What’s the playing field look like once this turkey-necked old shitbag dies? This governor out there, Ducey, seems to have his head and his ass wired together correctly. Has he tapped someone to be a successor who will play ball with Trump after that thin-skinned saboteur McLame assumes room temperature?
He won’t be around to vote when the time comes. He’ll be 10 feet under. Ten feet, due to the fact his head is too large for the normal 6. There will be no tears shed for this two face hypocrite.
Sarah, honey, are you seeing this? Please, say something, anything in order to redeem yourself. If not now, you will only be remembered as this man’s(?) ally and who would want to make that claim?
Why is it that the vile never take The Big Choke fast enough...
Trump needs to release all the records of McCain from the Vietnam war. Or he could say “McCain better hope Putin doesn’t release all they have on McCain. Hint. Hint.
Bet he pulls a Specter before he leaves.
McCain is still angry over Trump pointing out his traitorous ways from when he had his singing engagement in Hanoi.
Sorry, but I will not be hurt if John finds himself in a pine box come Christmas time.
I think people should write McCain, thank him for his sacrifices and service, wish him well and pray for him, and tell him that he is risking the legacy of his lifetime of service by opposing everything that he said he was for and that the country elected Republicans to do.
Trump has spit on a lot of people and everyone of them is looking for a chance to get even
President Trump could bring up a bill denouncing ISIS as a terrorist organization and John McCain would vote against it..he hates President Trump, NO matter what bills he brings forth you can always count on McCain to vote against it..its how he wants to die, to go down hating Trump and making his life miserable
