John McCain, who has been battling an aggressive form of brain cancer for more than a year, doesn’t want President Trump to attend his funeral and prefers Vice President Pence to be there, according to a New York Times report.

In addition, former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama have been asked to deliver eulogies at McCain's funeral, sources close to both former presidents and McCain told CNN.

Johnny needs to be put on life support and not allowed to die until after Bobby Mueller “interviews” him.

In hope that Senator McCain has a change of heart, our President should offer up daily prayer that despite this tragic disease, Senator McCain may “fight the long fight”.

It is my understanding that McCain needs to survive until the end of May, at which time the AZ Republican Governor Ducey will be able to appoint a replacement for two years. Otherwise, the seat will be up for election come November.

After the funeral they should take McCain’s body, wrap it up in a large black commercial trash bag and put it into the garbage bin next to the site of the funeral and hope they get the trash picked up before it stinks even more that McCain does while alive. My despisement of him knows no bounds.

I wonder who Hillbilly will ‘tar’ this time, since the POS is from Az.

I can’t believe that someone like this disgraceful human being would even come up with a statement like this, he is not thought of as a honorable person, nor has he ever been an honorable human in his whole life...the only chance he had left to bring some respect to his family was in his last years on earth and he can’t even do that...

Everyone has their time John. Just shut up, spend time with your family, and die with some dignity.

McCain is considering his wife?! Is he sick? Oh, I forgot. He is sick in the mind.

No one really voted for McCain for president. Then Trump comes in and wins in a landslide.

Kind of reminds me of "no one goes to that restaurant anymore. Its too crowded." :-)

2008 Election:
Obama 365 electoral votes 52.9% popular vote McCain 173 electoral votes 45.7% popular vote

2016 election:
Trump 304 electoral votes 46.1% popular vote Clinton 227 electoral votes 48.2% popular vote

"Nobody voted for McCain" yet he got 45.7% of the popular vote and Trump got 46.1%. Almost the same percentage of people voted for McCain and Trump in their respective elections.

"Trump won in a landslide". Trump had a decent victory and prevailed as many of us thought he would. But it was hardly a "landslide". Trump got 61 fewer electoral votes than Obama in 2008. Even Obama's win in 2008 was not what I would consider a landslide. A landslide is the schlonging Reagan gave Mondale in '84 -- 525 electoral votes vs 13. Now THAT was a landslide.

According to the NYT the McCain clan is pushing Ducey to appoint Cindy.

Well, at least Cindy hates McCain as much as we do.

I think true patriots should be on the warpath against any Republican that attends McStain’s funeral. Let us primary out every one of those RINO, ISIS-loving, Amercan-soldier abusing, mother-f*ckers.
