No, McCain was a treacherous SOB long before he had cancer.

McCain has become the Rat-tard’s reliable useful idiot. At the Phoenix rally on Tuesday, the fake news media got the most thunderous boos and jeers. McCain came in second place for boos and jeers, and it was a very close second place.

Sen. McBraintumor works for the Cheap Labor Express.

He knows he’s dying and he still keeps trying to abandon the rule of law.

Sad that McCain has to get his demented two cents worth in on this.

He should step down from the Senate while he still has just a touch of dignity left.

At this point McCain’s probably critical of his shoelaces.

McCain has completely lost it. No matter what Trump does or says he is against it and openly critical of it and Trump. Even his girl friend Linda Graham is not supporting him in his comments lately.

When McAmansty goes he will receive the 21 weed whacker salute followed by a Mexican bagpipe musical sendoff.

McCain similarly condemned Clinton’s pardon of Marc Rich, no doubt.

How do we know he’s not in a comma and some staffer put out this “statement”.

So BOTH McCain and Flake oppose the pardon? Incredible. Would have thought they would have at least been quiet about it or something. Do they really expect open opposition to help them? Can’t undo the pardon, just anger Trump supporters.

McBraindead probably had something to do with Arpaio successfully getting locked up.
