If no one fights or defend him then who does it besides himself? Should he just sit there and take it like Dubya? Should the fact that McCain tried to damage him without cause be swept under the rug? Get used to it because that is Trump's personality. As you said, you don't have to like it but it's who Trump is.

I agree. But in this case, I don’t think it advances his standing or position with anyone. Look around, everyone is killing him for it.

Conway needs to sit him down and say look pal, you’re right. McCain was a duplicitous liar. Just like every other politician. But if you do this, you’ll look like a sore loser, a whiner and a baby and it will hurt you.

Like it or not, most of the nation adored McCain. Attacking him isn’t going to help. Trump should realize this and frankly, just suck it up.

If the dossier is really bogus, he has nothing to worry about. Mueller isn’t going to do $hit.

For too long, the dems can do any dastardly deeds, and the reps have acquiesced and took it. Now we have someone who doesn’t lay down and be the patsy. We wanted a fighter.. we got one. Mccain was a snake and the left thought he walked on water.. mccain personally did all he could to destroy Trump.. no man has been subjected to what Trump has... and he’s supposed to be the only one who has to suck it up? And take it?

Should the fact that McCain tried to damage him without cause be swept under the rug?

But McCain did have cause to damage Trump: First, Trump publicly called McCain a loser for losing to Obammy. Second, Trump publicly stated that McCain is only a "war hero" because he was captured, and that he doesn't like people who are captured. Third, Trump accomplished something that McCain failed to achieve -- winning the election for POTUS. McCain, being the small, petty, vengeful, narcissistic turd that he was could never get over these "insults" and that's why he orchestrated a coup to take down our president.
