trump blames McCain for turning over the Steele Dossier to the FBI, which partly initiated the Special Counsel's investigation. That investigation is bearing down on trump causing him to act out.

 

Blaming McCain at this point seems wildly unproductive, as is claiming he gave McCain a huge funeral and didn't get a thank you.

 

His tweet/retweet storm over the weekend was alarming even to supporters.

I think you give them too much credit.

Just watched his speech made in Lima, Iowa. What an absolute disgrace of a human being; dancing on Sen. Mcain's grave. He is obsessed with the Senator. ("I never got a thank you from the family")!!!!

Mentally he is a child, and a particularly evil and dim witted one to boot.

John McCain, a principled warmonger. Never heard of a war that he didn't want the US involved in. Lots of concern for America but no concern for the foreign civilians being bombed or the carnage and misery left behind.

Trump is what he is. The alarming thing is so many Americans ignored his obvious deficiencies to elect him.

What's even more alarming is Trump's deficiencies are now on full display for the world to see.  And his minions STILL support him.  When this is all over, I hope there will be medical studies to determine how so many people can be so detached from reality.

I don't read (or write on) Twitter and I tend to have a bias against those that do.

Then there is of course the alternative which they had for president.

In many ways Hillary is of course not as bad as Trump. But in other ways she is worse than him.

Many Americans just tried to vote for the lesser evil.

The odds are split between impeachment, finishing his term and not running again, or being the first president to be certified insane on the job, and dragged out of the White House by men in white coats, to the newly opened Donald Trump wing at the local psychiatric institution, where, fitted with a strait glove to prevent tweeting, he can howl at the walls as he bounces off of them.

Given the choice available to them, US voters elected the least awful of the two, IMO.

No?  Trump hates McCain, so they do.  Trump hates Mueller, so they do.  Trump hates the MSM, so they do.  Etc.

We're not talking about the election.  We're talking about the present day.  Aside from the constant lying and corruption, Trump has demonstrated that he's mentally unfit.  Yet, his hardcore supporters will explain away all of his craziness, even if it makes no sense.

Trump didn't change much since he was elected.

Nobody can say they were not aware of his character before he was elected.

Now we just see the consequences of having someone like him in charge.

I think his base are reasonably happy with him. If attacking McCain was a problem, it would have been so before the election.

They elected him, IMO, to cause a ruckus in the Washington "swamp", and he's succeeded 100% in that.

My opinion, for what it's worth, is that McCain was clearly the wrong choice to represent the GOP. Had a better candidate been available I doubt Obama would have won. HRC's tragedy is that she would have been a shoo in had she been the Dem's candidate, and even I would have supported her back then.

Just trying to wrap my head around the level of reality disconnect required in a person to support the breathtakingly unsuited and unqualified traitor in the WH while accusing others of exactly the same. It's not easy....

It begs the question; where will the Trump Library be? And who will be the donors that cough up the several hundred million these things tend to cost?

McCain was another hater Of Mr. Trump gone viral! God only knows what  McCain was concocting(thumbs down on  doing away with Obamacare vote) before and after he  received a copy of the Unverified ,unvetted Steel Dossier from those so called CAREER PROFESSIONAL INTEL top officials. Judging from the comments in the last couple of days,Mr. Trump knows now

" A judge for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida unsealed the records last week". 

"New details about the late Sen. John McCain’s role in distributing a salacious 2016 dossier involving President Donald Trump were revealed in recently unsealed court filings and have unleashed a new round of Trump fury against McCain seven months after the senator’s death".

The fact that 41% of Americans think Trump's OK is a function of the corporate media propagandizing a distracted, dumbed-down, misinformed, and a coarsened populace.

 

 

No question. And if a Democrat (most of the ones we've seen so far anyway) wins, it will be for the same reasons. A lot of you people don't seem to get it. It's the people that are <deleted> up. The candidates are merely a reflection of that.

Maggie Haberman traveled with trump to his campaign rally in Lima, OH.

You could say the same about many American generals and politicians............although "Commander Bonespurs" wouldn't have fought!!!

What I've done about it in the past is I always voted for the best candidate, regardless of their chance of winning. That used to be Ralph Nader. In the most recent election I wrote in Bernie Sanders. What I NEVER do is vote for the least worst candidate, as that only assures worse candidates to come in the future.

I agree with your lampooning of Trump but so far fewer Americans have been killed in combat under his administration and just as importantly American combatants are killing less others as well.
