Discussion: Hatch: It's 'Ridiculous' That McCain Is Not Inviting Trump To His Funeral

1 Like

“I think it’s ridiculous,” [Hatch] reportedly said. “He’s the president of the United States and he’s a very good man. But it’s up to [McCain].”

Has “he’s a good man” recently become a euphemism for “total piece of shit” or was it always this way?

Prince Harry also didn’t invite Trump to his wedding. Time to invade Britain!

Oh, for Christ’s sake, you mealy-mouthed worm. First of all, it’s literally McCain’s funeral. Invite the loudmouth idiot to your own funeral if it’s such a big deal to you. Trump is certainly not a “good man” and there’s some question about whether he’s President in any legitimate way. The fact that you feel you need to butt in on this speaks to the whole question of who goes into public service and why. Some want to do good stuff. And others are just grandstanding loudmouths. Aren’t they, Or-rin?

It really isn’t any of the befuddled old coot’s place or business to say whether it’s “ridiculous” or not.

“He’s been pleased to hear reports that Senator McCain is in good spirits and hopes to see him back in Washington soon.”

With the correction by Hatch’s spokesman, this is hands-down the funniest article on TPM at the moment.

(And I do mean “moment.”)

What could possibly allow any human to refer to Trump as a good man? He is many, many things, but a good man? Is there literally any evidence of that? Any?

Hey Orrin, how about you invite him to your own funeral? Next week would be good.

Little Big Man may be retiring, but he’ll never retire from being a sycophant to the powerful.

So… is Hatch off the funeral list too?

If Trump is Hatch’s idea of a very good man, then I would think Rob Porter is his idea of the perfect man.

Orrin, you need to butt-the-fuck out on this one.

You don’t get a vote, asshole.
Drop dead, Orrin, and your family can invite all of those traitors and miscreants that you want at your funeral, bitchola.
If anybody said this about the dying wishes of anyone in my family, I would kick his teeth in and, believe me, the Secret Service wouldn’t stop me.

Makes you wonder about Mormon politicians doesn’t it? Hatch praises Trump and Romney refuses to criticize him. Evan McMullin is a giant compared to Hatch and Romney.

Orrin is under the mistaken belief that we’re sitting on the edge, anxiously awaiting his opinion.

Trump toadie David Pecker (sic) already has. When his tabloids aren’t hoovering up to Trump, they’re trashing the royals and Markle.

And you are a traitor-enabling sucker of Trump micropenis, Orrin. Go fuck yourself.
