Trump mocks McCain at Nevada rally
The Hill ^ | June 24, 2018 | Emily Birnbaum

Posted on 06/23/2018 9:05:45 PM PDT by Trump20162020

President Trump again mocked Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Saturday for McCain’s thumbs-down vote on the Republican plan to repeal ObamaCare.

Though Trump did not mention McCain by name, he has attacked the senator several times in recent weeks for his “no” on the GOP measure and has blamed McCain for the collapse of the Republican effort to repeal the act.

Trump at a GOP rally in Nevada said McCain went thumbs-down on the bill, a reference to McCain using the gesture to signify his vote.

"Nobody talked to him. Nobody needed to, and then he walked in: thumbs-down. It’s alright, because we’ve essentially gutted it anyway," Trump said of ObamaCare at the rally.

But I guess it’s okay for him to send daggers to Trump.

Those photos were many months back now. He’s brain dead by now. Of course, he was brain dead many years before by hatred.

McCain, one of the few Russian cold war aces! Credited with getting shot down in, burning up, crashing, ejecting from, or destroying FIVE US Navy planes.

In the MSM only Republicans attack, allege, or mock. These words are never used to describe Democrat statements.

“Is Heller in a primary or hss he already won that?”

Evidently Tarkanian was convinced not to run against him, so now he’s in the clear to run against Whacky Jackie Rosen.

Here is her wiki:

“Rosen was born in Chicago. She graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1979. While she attended college, her parents moved to Las Vegas, where she also moved after graduating. She took a job with Summa Corporation, and worked as a waitress at Caesars Palace. In the 1980s, she began to work for Southwest Gas, and then opened her own consulting business. A former computer programmer with no political experience, she was asked in 2016 by then Senate majority leader Harry Reid to run for the U.S. House seat vacated by Republican Joe Heck. She has served as the president of Ner Tamid, a Reform Jewish synagogue in Las Vegas, and cited tikkun olam as a key part of her decision to enter politics.”

So it looks like she’s a carpetbagger from Chicago, how nice!

[Meghan McCain says you can’t mention her dad because he is dying.]

She needs to stop composing his public statements then.

Ted Kennedy was diagnosed in May 2008 and died in August 2009 so he lasted a little over 15 months. These senators aren’t receiving your run of the mill medical care.

Agree. Heller is a nevertumper. It about killed him to say something nice about PoTUS at the business forum. Could’t gt rid of this POS. Tried.

Kind of like 30 million illegal invaders we all owe apologies.

We owe them NOTHING. I would rather they just said Thank You and GTF out of my country.

I’m starting to think that his tumor is a hoax. Yes, he had an operation. But I’m more concerned about his “boot.” Could be a set up. He’ll pill out or face treason in a military investigation. Long time traitor. Involved in gun running for terrorists. The man reeks.

If MCain or family member doesn’t want the criticism, then he can just quit. Last time I checked, he was still a sitting Senator.

You can’t have it both ways.

Yes, I’ve read average is 14-15 months. McCain was diagnosed what last July or August so he is almost at 12 months now . . .Guessing he won’t make it to Halloween OR Thanksgiving.

Due to GBM, my dad when from driving to the doctor’s office to gone in 7 weeks. McCain is still alive because in light of the inevitable and miserable afterlife to come, evil is most resistant to death.

Telling the truth is now “mockery” especially when he wasn’t mentioned by name?
