What are those exact and quotable actions and words this administration that had you arrive at this “half-baked nationalism” conclusion?

I just cannot even read anything more about him. I wish he would just leave, go away.

I think McLames brain cancer is fake. He uses it to deflect criticism and to be conveniently out of pocket.

Between being on opioid pain killers constantly which leads to brain saturation and chronic constipation which in itself can also cause the brain to go crazy if not treated properly, McCain is skating on thin ice and is trying to pull the rest of the GOP and President Trump out there with him.

This nasty old man looked and sounded pretty bad.

Very sad that a person would want to die being hateful.

Flake has to go! Imagine him with 6 years and election around the corner. No matter what happens they better NOT appoint Kelli Ward to the Senate to save him. If you’re from Arizona speak up against this!

spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems,” he said, “is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history.”

According to McCain, nationalism - the belief that our national sovereignty and institutions are worth preserving - is "unpatriotic," so by implication, globalism, which subverts national sovereignty and identity, is "patriotic." Orwell would be so proud.

I think so too. It is to deflect him getting subpoena over the Russian dossier business. As in” why would you put an old person with cancer through this”.

But he’ll retain the energy to run around and trash us and Trump.

McCain is wrong.

Churchill was a true leader, even before enough others were agreeing with him. Being a true leader is not measured by how many are agreeing with you. Leading is leading which can mean being ahead of others, whether they willingly follow or not. Being a leader does not require agreeing to compromise for the sake of going along to get a along.

Trump is currently right on many things that many western European leaders are wrong on. Trump is leading, whether they are agreeing or not.

I thought he looked and sounded normal for McCain. I didn’t see any debilitating effect of a fight against cancer.
