So I guess Meghan is going to pout on “The View” again, sticking up for Daddy while sucking off Trump and the GOP at the same time. Quite a trick. Surprised she didn’t win a slot on “America’s Got Talent”.

I wonder if McCain now regrets voting for tRump’s tax cut. Too bad he can’t go back and kill that too.

So I guess donnie is jealous of McCain’s HBO doc. I’d say he was also jealous of McCain’s new book, but since he doesn’t read, that couldn’t be the case.

You need to stop covering stuff like this. People who hate Trump already know he is a piece of garbage. Those who adore him are not changing their minds. So, all you are doing is giving Trump more attention, which is what he craves.

The moment when Trump openly disrespected McCain on the campaign trail and his supporters AGREED WITH HIM is the moment I finally saw conservatism for what it was. It’s not about being right or wrong, it’s not about being able to support the things you say with facts, it’s solely about which side of their culture war (or maybe at this point it’s more accurately called a civil cold war) they’re on. I mean, I did understand this before, but it just came sharply into focus for me. That’s why Roy Moore getting nominated and nearly winning didn’t surprise me.

I see now the way dehumanizinig yourself works is that you willingly break through all the bottom limits of what you once considered decent behavior, so there’s typically not a point where you realize what’s happening to you and stop. Once it seemed churlish to sneer at having been a prisoner of war. Now you find a gleeful, hateful liberation that you can do so. A couple of years later, it makes sense to take the children of asylum-seekers away and allow them to be lost forever. “They shouldn’t have come here!” you say. It’s not a rare thing in history and seeing it with my own eyes helps me understand why.

Nope. McCain’s family will benefit, it wasn’t “Trump’s” tax cut. Trump was merely a signature and beneficiary to the tax cut. It was precisely a Republican give away to the rich. This is something McCain has always supported. (At least after marrying Cindy and her money)

I can hear the marks yelling “We don’t need health care, We have Jesus”…

trumps tweets are sometimes over reported. But I think reporting on his remarks before a crowd is essential because the crowd response is scary and dangerous, even if some attending just enjoy the “circus.” trump’s rallies remind me of the Roman “condemnation by beasts"

The man has no common decency. None at all. Was he raised by a pack of wolves?

When you’re attacking members of your own party at campaign rallies, you know you are #winning.

Here we are just two days after the day in which we honor our fallen soldiers, and the president is leading boos and chants against a dying former POW. I’m far from in love with John McCain, but this is yet another slap against basic human decency. There’s truly no bottom for this man or his supporters.

Back when I was a young guy…early in my career, Nixon was running for office and blabbering about “the silent center” or “silent majority”. The culture war you describe is old hat to me but still very very relevant.

The players change but the game remains.

Meghan McCain is utterly clueless, but she knows how to play the victim. My wife likes her and thinks she is misunderstood, but I understand her. She is a child of wealth who has never had a difficult moment in life. Her family wealth has shielded her from every human worry. She will vote and campaign for Trump in a heartbeat if it means screwing over the people of America or her state to help the wealthy among us. She and Ivanka are soul sisters.
