I hope the Gov. of Ariz is a Republican.

He's Doug Ducey, and yes.. he's GOP.

He could have voted then did the surgery.

And he should have stayed in DC, where he could have been wheeled into the chambers like Robert Byrd, conforming to the highest standards of tradition with the Senate.

But no, he went and slinked off to Arizona. Now I ask you, if you just had cranial surgery would your doctor let you go onto an aircraft where the interior pressure altitude might have been 8,000 feet. How did he get to AZ and why permit it.

It all reeks to me that he wanted out of Dodge and now.

My money is that the Governor of AZ will soon be filling a Senate seat. Kelli Ward anyone?

This reminds me, Pelosi is showing signs of an imminent breakdown of some sort.

He sold his soul to Satan in exchange for long life.

Unfortunately we must deal with him for some time yet

Whilst I don’t wish death on people, I have to say I can’t put into words how much I hate John McCain, he has proven himself the worst type of traitor.

The best situation is that he is now FORCED to resign his seat because of health reasons.

Then hopefully his replacement will be a Patriot and not someone who works every waking hour to both undermine the nation, the President and give aid and comfort to our enemies like McCain has consistently done.

“minimally invasive craniotomy”

How minimal can it be and still be a hole drilled in your head to get at the goo inside?

He has a clot at every point of the brain where a modicum of thought is processed.

He will try to hang on and get reelected. Daughter is only 32, so she is too young to replace him in the Senate.

He was at the Mayo Clinic in Phx for a “routine checkup”. Who approved surgery if he hadn’t been fasting?

There is a rumor - going around quietly - that he had to get out of DC because something bad was about to happen. I think he had the surgery scheduled for a while and the time wave of the Senate just caught up with him. Which means this is a very serious situation.

So, Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s house ‘doctor’, wasn’t in the operating room, hasn’t examined McCain, doesn’t know anymore than he’s read in the papers.

He’s an expert, alright! Comes in from out of town with a briefcase (the textbook definition of one, by the way) and when you ask him what time it is, he borrows your watch to tell you what you already knew and charges you for the privilege.

Keyword Math. 82 Years Old + Significant Surgery + General Anesthesia = Possible reduced cognitive abilities.

My Grandmother about the same age had a similar significant operation and the extended length of time under General Anesthesia alone made her a Vegetable. She was done in.

Agreed. It’s called, ‘The Mohs Procedure’ and both my Dad and M-I-L have had it done for various skin cancers.

If it was one of us on obamacare at his age, would they even operate on us? No. How nice for him he is exempt from deathcare.

I couldn’t help but wonder at the timing of this. Lots of talk about the dossier, McCain involvement, etc. Call me jaded. Bad JudyinCanada.

My thoughts exactly. He hates Trump and things started to pile up on him being involved with the dossier. Hmmmmmm.

He resigns due to health reasons or he can’t testify due to brain problems.

Fine, we’ll take the deal to get the treasonous punk out of the Senate. Especially if the Az Governor can appoint an interim.
