Discussion: How McCain Arranged His Funeral To Be The Ultimate Middle Finger To Trump

Kelli Ward wasn’t too far off the mark, and I prefer to imagine that the late Senator perceived her to be a one-woman argument for gender neutrality in the usage of, “asshole.”

How about a big FUCK TRUMP banner or at least a lapel pin?

Well, Drumpf couldn’t have made it to the service on Sunday anyway. He has a golfing date.

Funerals are about the living. It’s a little unusual to arrange a funeral/memorial to send a message to someone specifically excluded from the guest list. I hope sending a big FU to Two-scoops brings some comfort to McCain’s family.

ETA: I hope all media outlets, but especially including Faux News (Real Noise) harp on this aspect of the ceremonies.

The real reason Agolf Twitler won’t be attending McCrashcup’s funeral is due to a scheduling conflict. He will instead spend the weekend at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster reading, writing, reflecting … and shooting three more 9-under-par rounds of golf, followed by well-done rib eyes and plenty of catsup.

Well, everyone else, including Donnie and the gang think likewise.

It’s the Vinnie Barbarino thing – Up your nose with a rubber hose!

Well, I have held off of having the opinion that McCain arranged everything simply to send a message, not only to the §resident but to the country at large. I now have an opinion. He did.

If he is not careful, we may elect him President in 2020. Dead as he is, he is still more able bodied than the current resident of the White House.

Well as long as he does not select Palin as a running mate again.

I would have preferred more ‘fuck you, Trump’ from McCain while he was in the Senate.

Regardless, I hope McCain’s choices support his family in their loss.

Remember when McCain was campaigning for Hillary?

Yeah, I don’t either.

I think it’s more likely he will be at one of his ‘lovefest’ rally’s which will pose a problem for Faux News as to which event to cover.

Palin: What about me?

Absolutely agree. He was perhaps the only person who could have made a real difference, and he would have gone down in history as saving democracy. I often wonder why he didn’t do more.

I hadn’t thought about how Bush as well as Obama had defeated McCain in a presidential race, and Bush had used some pretty dirty tactics that not everyone would be inclined to forgive. Also it covers about 75 percent of the nation as far as political views go to have them both there. It’s going to be a big recognition of the established order, the rule of law, the norms that made for productive governance, all that fun stuff. And who’s not looking forward to hearing Obama do a big speech after two long frickin’ years? Like a cold beer after two hours in the sweltering heat mowing the lawn.

I have to give McCain props between this and the final statement read on Monday he’s trolling Trump from the beyond and it’s highly amusing to me.

I used to think that well-done steaks were an abomination. I still prefer mine medium-rare, but a steak can be cooked to well-done without destroying it. It has to be prepared sous-vide, though. (Sealed in a waterproof pouch and immersed in a water bath at the desired final temperature, 160F for well-done.) Then the cook takes it out of the pouch and sears the steak on the grill long enough to generate the Maillard reaction on the surface. I’m certain Two-scoops’ steaks are not prepared that way.

If he did - it would not be a problem for FOX - they would not hesitate …
The “A” team would be dispatched to cover Trump
The “B” team would have Labor Day Weekend off
… and that funeral thing could be covered by picking up a feed from the local FOX affiliate.
