My point is that McCain voted to confirm arguably the two worst Secretaries of State we have ever had and now he has the gall to spout off on this pick.

Does the LA runoff electing Kennedy help with the #s here? That’s one more Republican.

*Marco Rubio, John McCain warn Trump on nominating Tillerson for State Secretary job.*

Marco Rubio, John McCain ‘WARN’ Trump?

Whaaa? How dare you warn Trump? Two RINO traitors, (both inexplicably wealthy) who know only boot-licking ~ but Trump knows ass-kicking!

He is an accomplished expert!Know your place, b!tches, the USA now has a Leader, and you two fags are having fainting spells...

Trump/Pence MAGA!

Well, we already have fake news that Russia interfered with the election. Then Trump turns around and appoints a man that the press can have a grand old time painting as a Russian sympathizer or worse? Big mistake-jmho

Rudy or Bolton would be better, or even another retired general, as long as it’s not a Globalist supporter or one who shared classified info with his mistress.

McCain got shot down in the first place because he disobeyed orders and flew below the ceiling.

The other men in his squadron flew ABOVE the ceiling, as ordered, and they were not shot down.

President Trump will have to make a strong case if this is the person he wants for Secretary of State. That's how this system is supposed to work.

So I say let the chips fall where they may.

If President Trump really thinks this guy is the best guy for the job, then he'll need to convince the American People and/or the US Senate...

What did John have to say about this?

Barack Obama microphone gaffe: ‘I’ll have more flexibility after election’
President Barack Obama was caught on microphone telling Dmitry Medvedev that he would have more flexibility after November’s election to deal with contentious issues such as missile defence.

McCain and Rubio criticized Mr. Tillerson because of his supposed ties to Russia, but did they criticize Hillary for brokering a deal to sell 20% of America’s uranium fields to Russia?

A couple of the biggest problems at State is that it is a fiefdom which plays by its own rules security wise and it has an entrenched leftist bureaucracy.

It’s noted for demanding security beyond any DOD caliber but then playing fast and loose with all the rules itself. Likewise, it has been a cesspool since FDR let it fill with Soviet agents.

So, the services of a hard nosed Prosecutor/US Attorney would be right up the alley needed even if his domestic history is not too conservative. Seems like Rudy is a loyal supporter of Donald. I say they both need to reconsider and fill the post with THE MAYOR.

I never gave much credence to Tillerson. As of tonight I will endorse him. If Rubio and McCain are against, I am for.

If John McCain speaks and nobody is listening...did he make a sound?

STFU and RETIRE you useless old fart! Go fishing! Enjoy spending time with your GREAT-Grandchildren, you LUCKY SOB!

Hang out at the Costo on Wednesdays and enjoy the FREE (because EVERYTHING is FREE in your insulated little world) samples of cheese and pizza and sausages and Danish pastries!

Just. Go. Away.

If Juan McSoros doesn't like him Tillerson must be quite the patriot!

Not enough, there are too many weak-sister Democrats in R jerseys in the Senate.

Corker, Alexander, Murkowsky, McCain, Graham, Rubio, Flake, Hoeven, Heller, Hatch all voted for Gang of Eight.
That doesn’t even mention Collins, Cochran, Gardner, Toomey, Thune, McConnell, Burr, Tillis and Crapo who love to reach across the aisle as well.

“Trump is going to be opposed by these media RINOs his whole administration.”

Yep. We’re up against 4-8 YEARS of this cr@p sandwich on a DAILY basis.

And then 8-12 MORE when VP Pence is President. ;)

Buckle Up, Baby! ;)

Where McCain goes, Lindsey Graham tends to go too.

Well, McCain doesn't need to crawl up his own patoot, since he is the patoot. Lindsey, however, does. So there's at least one distinction between them.

The President is entitled to his nominees, and you will vote for them, you worthless, useless, festering, stinking sack of feces.

You serve us, and you are no one.
