McCain rips Trump for ‘disappointing’ behavior at NATO summit
The New York Post ^ | July 12, 2018 | Mark Moore

GOP Sen. John McCain blasted President Trump for his “disappointing” behavior at the NATO summit but assured the alliance that despite the president’s blistering comments, the United States stands solidly behind its longtime allies.

“President Trump’s performance at the NATO summit in Brussels was disappointing, yet ultimately unsurprising. There is little use in parsing the president’s misstatements and bluster, except to say that they are the words of one man,” McCain, chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said in a statement Thursday.

“Americans, and their Congress, still believe in the transatlantic alliance … and it is clear that our allies still believe in us as well,” he added.

HMMM I hadn’t considered the idea he might be faking to avoid the public, etc. Interesting theory. Thanks for sharing.

Trying to get these countries to increase their NATO investment isn’t “against” our allies, it is to bolster and strengthen NATO - which is in their best interests.

I think McCain is still crying over the success of PDJT vs. his presidential failure. The POTUS isn’t “one man”, he represents the leader of our nation...regardless of McCain’s opinion.

What an idiot.

I guess small, petty, lying McCain does’t know that when he speaks (if it is really him speaking) nobody really gives a damn what he has to say.

I am firmly convinced that he has been dead for several weeks now.

NATO is about keeping the Americans in, the Russians Out, and the Germans down.

Trump is trying to confirm if that is still the case.

If not, then time to negotiate a new deal.

Pretty darn simple.

mclame is in the family freezer in the basement of one of their mansions. His wife and useless staff issue these “statements”. Weekend at Bernie’s redux.

Flake probably has his hand up John’s butt, working him like a puppet.

"Has he been out in public lately?"

I don't think he's been seen in public since his daughter's wedding last November. The only photo of him from that day is one with Cindy, Meghan and her husband. He was in the Mayo Clinic in April of this year for stomach surgery, but no pictures were ever released.

RE: Palin....You and me both.

Although, without a screwup like McCain, we'd not have had Obama. And without Obama, we'd not have Trump. We'd have Hillary, or some flavor of Hillary-lite, like Romney or Jeb.

Not that it particularly matters, but I think that it could be argued we'd be in a worse position now if McCain had been elected in 2008.

That's hard to believe, but with the advantage of some hindsight, I think its possible. We'll know better after the elections in 2018 and 2020.

a sad pathetic brain damaged individual.

Nice pic.

Isn't pleasant to have a First Lady who actually looks the part?

For all I know McCain is dead, and his family’s using him for their personal pronouncements.

Pre-natal brain damage. His tumor has had no affect on him one way or the other.

Cindy and Megan are probably helping him with his statements to the press.

“I see Cindy is going to be just as crazy a leftist as songbird was, from all her tweeting.”

If she is tweeting and commenting l take that as a bad sign indeed. I was holding out some hope Ducey was not giving her McTraitors seat. The only hope now is that Juan kicks the bucket before the AZ primary. Ducey knows handing the seat to that Rat Cindy could hurt him bad in the primary so the 3 of em are trying run our the clock.
