He is remembering what honesty and integrity stood for before our world began to disintegrate to what it is today.

It will be his legacy.

Every GOP colleague of McCain's with the exception of Corker owns this attack on a combat wounded veteran

Every McCain voter who now worships Trump too

This is not our America

not a McCain fan, but i know who i'm rooting for in this showdown. Sen. McCain has brain cancer, probably not much time left to live, wtf does Marmalade Shartcannon even have to use against him?

Threatening a man with brain cancer for telling the truth, calling the malignant narcissist out. McCain didn't name the Trumpster but the lunatic obviously recognized himself in the speech.

Btw, the Trumpster is never 'really, really nice,' unless people are kissing his ass.

He should think about that, maybe. It's sort of a dumb thing to do, for a number of reasons.
