President Trump warned on Tuesday that he would "fight back" after Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) delivered a blunt denunciation of nationalist forces that was seen by many as a thinly veiled attack on the president.

"People have to careful, because at some point I fight back," Trump told WMAL radio host Chris Plante. "I'm being very nice. I'm being very, very nice. But at some point I fight back, and it won't be pretty."

McCain responded to Trump's comments moments later, saying that he has "faced far greater challenges than this," according to CNN.

McCain just received his National Sh**head Award.

Good. McCain needs a take down.

[veracious]

McCain is evil and insane; as if there is a difference...

Don’t waste your time, Mr. President.

The Grim Reaper will soon be taking care of our little problem.

These f&^cs STILL think they’re dealing with the half-wit...”O”!!

[lee martell]

Wait for McCain’s faithfully
outraged’ Greek Chorus, aka daughter to come out and defend her daddy from ‘all the hate’.

Is he that delusional that he forgot how the dems and media savaged him when he ran for president? My gawd, they were far worse than Trump has been or ever will be.

[ponygirl]

Just watch. The Left will put out a hit on McCain and try to pin it on Trump. Wait for it...

[robroys woman]

Talk is cheap, Mr. President.

[Sacajaweau]

I expect to see McCain having lunch with Chuckie and Nancy....just to p*** off President Trump.

When will the doctors be honest and declare him incompetent.

McCain’s going to lose his latest ‘challenge.’ And I don’t mean President Trump. The senator should be spending time with his family, getting his affairs in order, and otherwise preparing to meet his Maker, not going out with thinly veiled attacks on the POTUS and his supporters.

[thinden]

mccain is a self solving problem

[Darksheare]

McCain sang like a bird when faced with a challenge, he was wholly owned by Nva co.

[Zathras]

He is going to flip RAT anyway.
Might as well take him out and Flake with him.

[central_va]

You Never Trumpers are a joke.

[TheRightGuy]

make his head explode (in the name of science, of course)

McCain has been dining out on his Vietnam experiences for decades. Trump injured himself when he called McCain out for it and since then the urinating competition has been virtually unending.

Since he avoided punishment for the Keating Five deal McCain has considered himself untouchable. Anything that doesn't remove him from office only emboldens him. Trump's wisest strategy is to just shut up and let him die in God's own time.
