Does the Clinton News Network think that supporting the President is somehow un-principled?

Sen. John McCain, who encouraged all to put country first.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
McCain NEVER put anyone or thing ahead of his own ego.
Ah, the worm is turning.
Since this is a CNN article must take it at face value.
That they feel Graham should crap all over PDJT because PDJT speaks the truth when it comes to McCain.
Someone needs to remind CNN that McCain would have had a career asking “Do you want fries with that” had his Grandfather & Father been plumbers or construction laborers.
McCain got his ‘free pass’ when he and John Glenn were ‘paid back’ for their service and hardships endured while in the Military when they both ‘skated’ on the ‘Keating 5’ BS.

I'd say Graham knows he can't win a spitting match with President Trump.....so he'll tow the line until he wins another term.

This is psyops.
McCain is dead; he doesn't care what Graham does.

his lifelong friendship with the late Arizona Sen. John McCain
Lifelong friends? Does the plain meaning of words matter at all to news outlets like CNN? Graham and McCain were not friends for the length of either of their lives. Graham wasn't in Washington as a Representative until 1995, and he wasn't in the Senate until 2003, so we're talking perhaps a two-decade-long friendship at best.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
McCain ADMITTED to giving the dossier to the FBI.
Trump stated the facts.
How is it unprincipled to acknowledge that?
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Perhaps Graham has grown up a lot and realized that McCain was out for McCain only, not for America.
I once admired McCain but as he got into politics, his whole demeanor changed and it was all about power and his legacy. Now he has none and nobody cares about him anymore.
That is his legacy. He earned it.

I hope Team Trump realizes that Lindsey does this every time he has to endear himself to the SC voters in order to slither through another reelection. History says it doesn’t last once he’s secured another six years.

“McCain encouraged all to put country first.”
What a stinky, steaming pile of crap.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
CNN has principles?! Hahahahahaha do they know the meaning of the word?

How is Graham stuck between a DEAD man and a LIVING POTUS IN OFFICE?
A dead Moron and Traitor no less who was on the wrong side of history in so many instances!
I wish he was buried on Staten Island so I could dance on his grave once a day.
And yes, I hate those few RINOs that have voted against Trump the most. I forget their names.
Graham gets it right sometimes lately.

The only thing John McCain put first was John McCain.

To CNN, I suppose, being “principled” means stabbing the American people in the back every chance one gets.
The way I see it, Trump has inspired Graham to grow a backbone and do what is right, i.e., represent the voters instead of angling for political gain.
CNN can go pound sand.
