Trump refuses to pay tribute to Senator McCain

Normal lowering of a Flag for a deceased Head of State or
Hero is usually no more than 2 days.Trump's White House allowed
for a day and a half of the Flag being lowered.

 

What does it matter how he became an officer? What matters is that he survived years of torture and REFUSED special treatment when the VK found out who his father was.

 

You talk and sound like some crazy.Crazy in Love with anyone who
fought for this Country and was a POW.
McCain went into the Military because of his Father and Grandfather
made Admiral.McCain would have been stupid to not pursue a life
in the Service.No ones knows how brave he was at the Hanoi Hilton.
It is not possible to know.He may have been handed the enemy
important Info { like location and number of Fighter jets on an
Aircratft and any one time }.
Personally I think the Guy is a Putz and a Hot Dog.
Like I said ... No way,no how is he any Audie Murphy.

 

No bone spurs.

 

His reason for going into the military means nothing. His actions mean everything. In fact, we're lucky it was him and not some coward who would have taken the deals and propaganda pieces the VK offered.

 

Everything matters in Life.That's how.
Because In the End God always wins.

 

Oh brother

 

So you disagree that the media hates Trump more than they love McCain? I'm sorry not to answer your specific questions, but I was only stating generally. If the media has changed from their obvious bias against Trump and his administration, I am not aware of it. Are looking for a one or two day stretch of unbiased coverage to use an example?

 

I don't know what kind of Fighter Pilot and Hero he was.
He cost the Navy a lot of money with his Piloting.
Plus he was a prankster as cadet at Annapolis.
Plus none to bright bragging how he doesn't know or
care to know about Computers.How do you think a Fighter
jet runs ... On batteries.

 

Your mentality of pilots who are shot down in combat is insane.

 

But they do work together. They work together to bail out banks, spy on Americans, throw millions into prison, bomb Muslim countries, throw billions of tax dollars at Israel and Saudi Arabia, waste trillions of tax dollars on a bloated military, etc. And McCain was always right there, at the heart of the bipartisan corruption, promoting the most illiberal policies imaginable. Yet he has suddenly become a liberal hero simply because he attacked Trump. Apparently, it doesn't matter that McCain's legacy is one of hardcore, right-wing imperialism, police statism, and corporate cronyism.

 

I'll leave you to your tribute then ... 1000's in fact did survive torture at the hands of their captors. I, like anyone else, cannot pretend to know the resilience of our own survival instinct, but you've determined that for us ...

 

Yeah, we never heard anything like "But Buuuuuuuuuuuuush" between 2009-2017 right?

 

And I would never speak ill of any of them after their death. I don't care if them decided to become wacky socialists. They are heroes.

 

How ironic, since it was McCain's aggressive incitement to war in Iraq that caused the death or maiming of thousands of military personnel.

 

lighten up, Francis

 

I mean McCain has a LOT of skeletons in his closet, including refusing to leave office or practically EVER make a vote in the congress to represent his Arizona constituents.

 

Thata boy, keep that tit for tat BS going.

 

it's sad, I can not believe so many Trump supporters are attacking McCain on his death bed like this

 

If you support someone as small as Trump you have no choice but to be small right alongside them.

Your total disrespect for our troops and what they did and what they sacrificed is just as stupid and pathetic as that slimey coward Trump's....the yellow bellied coward who couldn't hold a candle to any of our military and wasn't good enough to lick McCain's feet...



I'm sure the families of those who were maimed and/or died for your sorry ass will not appreciate your complete lack of gratitude and patriotism....

Yes, that's true and one of the reasons I found fault with him.

That does not change one word of my post you quoted.

To denigrate our troops because some make mistakes (from top to bottom) is Anti-American.

To belittle McCain because he was captured and suffered 5 years of torture WHILE SERVING HIS COUNTRY while Trump hid under his bed quaking in fear is ASSinine and Un-American.

 

The TrumpDump is just blindly following their leader who couldn't even keep the flag at half staff for a full 48 hours.....gee, are we surprised he's a petulant petty jerk???

 

exactly. Trump could have posthumously awarded him the Medal Of Freedom, declared a national month of mourning, renamed Camp David 'Camp McCain', erected a monument on the Mall, and appointed Cindy and each of his children to lifetime ambassadorships to the shithole of their choosing, and leftists would accuse him of being cheap, petty and vindictive.

 

All heroes who aren't ever going to receive 1/100 th of the appreciation McCain has ... This purely politically motivated hysteria over how long the WH flag needs to fly at half mast is a manufactured crisis. Erect a statue to McCain and count the hours until it's defaced by the same liberals crying crocodile tears over his passing. The flags at half mast because McCain was a US Senator ... decorated war vets, even the POW's kept alongside McCain at the Hanoi Hilton, get that recognition for sacrifice & service. How much respect US Senator McCain deserves is debatable, and my feelings won't be swayed in that regard.

 

There's sacrifice and then there's sacrifice. If the man next to you catches one in the spinal cord and spends the rest of his life in a wheelchair, and you get out without a scratch, who has sacrificed the most?

Give credit where credit is due.
