John McCain Just Attacked Nearly Everything Donald Trump Represents

[Zorro]

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) fired off another shot at President Donald Trump and his supporters, attacking everything from “crackpot conspiracy theories” to the proposed border wall with Mexico.

“It’s time to wake up,” McCain told midshipmen at the Naval Academy on Monday night, per the Capital Gazette. “I believe in America. We’re capable of better. I’ve seen it. We’re hopeful, compassionate people.”

McCain then lamented the loss of “compromise and principled cooperation.”

“We are asleep to the necessity of our leadership, and to the opportunities and real dangers of this world,” he said, according to The Hill. “We are asleep in our echo chambers, where our views are always affirmed and information that contradicts them is always fake.”

2. Says the man who gave us Sarah Palin. I love what he's saying, but tomorrow is he going to

go and vote to take away insurance from disabled kids, or some other dickish Republican move? Yes, he probably is.

6. agree....all talk....

7. Agreed

He has always talked a great game, loves going on TV and being the maverick Republican with a conscience. Then he goes right back and votes like none of that mattered.

8. "goes right back and votes like none of that mattered." That's because to him it never has

nor will it ever.

3. He's free from worrying about their propaganda

Meaning Fox News which has been running their show for the 21st century.

5. This will never free him

From all the ugly things he had done. Or how many times he voted with his fellow republicans. I won't dog him but that man no matter what he does now will never have my respect. Just sayin!

9. McCain still voted for the tax bill that had no "compromise and principled cooperation"

McCain is so full of shit. Why isn't he objecting to the lack of "regular order" with the tax "reform" bill?
