And then there were the three who spoke on Friday. You had to control your gag reflex watching Vice President Pence, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) extol McCain’s greatness as he was accorded the honor of lying in state.
Consider Pence for a moment. He began with a ludicrous declaration that broke all records for disingenuousness: “The president asked me to be here on behalf of a grateful nation, to pay a debt of honor and respect to a man who served our country throughout his life, in uniform and in public office. It’s my great honor to be here.” President Trump despised McCain and routinely mocked him. Suggesting that Pence was there to represent Trump would require him to insult and mock McCain. Pence accepted the vice presidency and stuck with Trump despite the “Access Hollywood” tape, despite Trump’s denigration of McCain’s service, despite overt racism and contempt for human rights. He has not batted an eye over the hush-money payments to women, the attacks on the rule of law, the evisceration of decorum. Only in Washington could such a spineless creature sally forth to declare McCain a hero.
To call McCain a hero is to recognize his heroic qualities, of which Trump has none. You can worship Trump or admire McCain; it’s metaphysically impossible to do both. Meghan McCain’s glare was an appropriate reaction to Pence’s hypocrisy.

I saw Tucker, and it was an amazingly brave report.
Once again, there is a battle being fought, and all that is surfacing is minor BS. Does anyone have the Truth?
“I’m not convinced he died, let alone how it was reported. If dead, was it natural, suicide or was he executed for Treason?”
One FReeper said he was given a choice. He could either be tried by a military tribunal for crimes involving ISIS and others, of he could off himself. He chose the latter.
Who knows? Something weire is/was going on. With so many leakers in the world, I expect we’d know about any secret military hearings or such.
The day Jennifer Rubin is a “Republican,” this will be a full blown communist dictatorship with Potemkin parties. She’s an absolutely vile angry radical leftist.
I have heard a lot of rumors. Not sure what to believe, but major earthquakes are happening.
I pray for Trump. We need to end the corruption.
This is so vile from Jennifer Rubin. Disgraceful.
Hey Jen... Or should it be Gin? (as in: “Jen has really been hitting the Gin?”)
The only thing less fit than McConnell and Ryan to be eulogizing McCain is McCain not deserving to be eulogized by even such useless DeepState hacks as them.
“Angry” is the perfect word.
If you are a lib, it follows, you are angry.
I’ll take the happy crowds at President Trump’s rallies.
it wouldn’t surprise me if Jennifer Rubin was one of the “journos” in the IG report.
if I were her, I’d retire rather than continue to make a fool of myself writing garbage.
“I pray for Trump. We need to end the corruption.”
Yes. We pray every single day, many times a day. Only God can keep him strong, and safe from harm. I don’t understand why God doesn’t rein in Satan and give Trump a break. But it’s not my job to know, I guess.
I stopped reading at “Jennifer Rubin.”
True
More like the meeting of the Five Families after Sonny's assassination in The Godfather.
Most here are still obsessing over the button men - Ohr, Strozk, Comey, etc., or the Capos, like Lynch.
Yesterday, the men behind the coup all got together in one place - I'm sure they had a lot to talk about.
You almost miss the solemn dignity of the Paul Wellstone funeral.
Jennifer Rubin—the Norma Bates of the Never Trumpers.
Absolutely
Poor Jen - the WaaaaPo is trying to overtake CNN as the top Fake News service and she is doing her best to keep up with the transition to deeper slime....
Correct. John McCain was a self-serving narcissistic egomaniac with no conscience wrapped up in a twisted body as small as his ethics.
Politicians doing what they do best...lie and Bullshit the people ! Disgusting !
