It certainly appears as if the political career and legacy of neocon traitor John McCain, is starting to crumble all around him. Having rode the wave of being a Vietnam POW almost all the way to the Oval Office but falling short, the twilight of McCain’s career has been marked nothing but scandals, and he has been reduced to little more than a talking head most recently associated with spouting baseless Russian connections against the President.
Having failed miserably in each of his attempts to discredit Trump, including allegedly being the source who passed the fake Russian dossier to the FBI in yet another of his pathetic attempts to discredit President Trump, McCain is growing increasingly desperate, and it’s becoming as painful to watch as it is disturbing.
Right Wing News looks at the sad state of McCain’s political career, as he continues to be shunned by both sides of the aisle. Despite having been a major source of all the political slander against Trump, the desperate senator has the gall to reach out to beg the President for a meeting. As more and more people continue to see McCain for the treasonous liar he truly is, what will this traitorous neocon do next? Furthermore, what will President Trump do about McCain?
A desperate John McCain has urged President Trump to meet with him, as numerous scandals about the Republican Senator threatens his future as a politician.
Earlier this year, McCain admitted that he had committed treason in an attempt to prevent Donald Trump from taking office:
The Senator revealed that he passed the fake Russian dossier claiming that Donald Trump was into “golden showers” over to the FBI in order to try and overturn his election win.
This was followed by a series of embarrassing, career-destroying scandals that has seen his future as a politician come under question. These revelations include McCain leaking national security information to Russian hackers, and McCain accusing Rand Paul of working directly for Vladimir Putin.
‘The senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin!‘ an out-of-control McCain screamed after berating his GOP colleague for several excruciating minutes.
The Republican Senator has now asked Trump to reach out to him and other treasonous Democrats in order to “find common ground.”
Thedailybeast.com.Newsweek reports:
“Do some outreach. Get to know some of these Democratic leaders,” he said. “You can find common ground.” McCain said he’d met Trump “some years ago” when he was a businessman, but had not met him since. McCain said he did speak “almost daily” to National Security Adviser Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, however.
“He doesn’t seem to be that upset that he’s not talking to him,” said German Marshall Fund’s Derek Chollet, a former Obama Pentagon official. “He’s trying to run U.S. defense policy through Mattis and effectively ignore Trump.”
The White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The senior Republican and vociferous Trump critic said Trump’s tweet storms had caused “a great deal of uncertainty” about who advises the president. “Who drives the tweets at 6am in the morning?” he said, speaking at the German Marshall Fund’s Brussels Forum. He also expressed concerns, as head of the Senate Armed Services Committee, about the Trump campaign’s alleged ties to Moscow, and repeated his call for an independent committee to investigate such matters after House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes disclosed that he thought Trump’s communications may have been inadvertently listened to by the FBI, without sharing that with other committee members or disclosing his source. “I have significant concerns about the intelligence committee’s ability to get to the bottom of this issue,” McCain said. “We need a select committee.”
However, McCain emphasized that ongoing controversy shouldn’t prevent the president from ever meeting with Russian counterparts.
“There’s nothing wrong with meetings,” the senator said. “At the height of the Cold War, (U.S. President) Ronald Reagan and (Soviet leader) Leonid Brezhnev met.” The proponent of Trump’s defense spending boost said the Trump needed to go to the meeting with a “strong hand” including “strong and growing military capabilities.”
“Make him the new ambassador to Venezuela”
Not a bad idea. Of course, ISIS doesn’t have an ambassador and he seems to enjoy their company.
Tell McCain to pound sand.
“Tell McCain to pound sand.”
Or Linda
McCain is scared about prison as he is up to his ears in this NSA-CIA-FBI issue.
Trump should put full focus on McCain.
He will sell his soul to stay out of the joint.
I hope Mattis isn’t letting maccainiac do an end run around the President.
Re the shunning, I don’t know if it’s true, but have noticed Linda Graham doesn’t appear to be tied to McCain’s apron strings quite as closely lately.
Is McCain on any committee as a leader? serving on any significant committee?
Seems he is in virtual exile serving as the establishment media’s pet rino.
Invite him when his “fellow” dems come to the wh.
IF I was Trump, I wouldn’t crap down McNut’s throat if he were starving to death.
That POS is a traitor...and then some.
Trump should do what he is best at: MAKE A DEAL. Make a deal that McCain will resign his senate seat and that he will also come out and apologize for all the damaging stuff he has said about POTUS and what he has done to sabotage the MAGA efforts. Then POTUS should give him 10 minutes with a whole bunch of staffers in the room. I could go for that.
I sincerely hope that this isn’t fake news.
There’s a great scene in, “Robin Hood, Men in Tights”, where the Sheriff of Rottingham takes the seat of honor in a trebuchet and pulls the trigger. McCain ought to do that with the trebuchet aimed so he’d land in a cess pool.
He is using Graham to block the investigations.
Notice how Graham talks about the Russians and wiretapping.
Never how the Press or FBI got the information or recordings.
He is trying to deflect it long enough that it goes away.
This has fake news written all over it, as amusing as the prospect of McCain going begging to Trump may be.
Perhaps he should be invited to the white house and made to wait for a long time, only to get word that President Trump won’t be able to fit him into the schedule. More important matters to attend to.
McCain should be in Leavenworth for leaking the Brit’s Russian dossier on POTUS.
Trump should give McSwine what he owes him.... Absolutely nothing.
He’s like an 80 year old veteran hanging around the military recruiting offices, cadging free coffee and donuts and telling sea stories.
McCain is “The Leaker”
