I believe I know why Trump so envies John McCain

On Trump's death bed, he will be denied respect and love that McCain received, even from adversaries.

And Trump won't receive love from his wife, his children, his family as he fades -- and he'll know it.

as a human being or leader

The GOP sees him as someone to sign bills for them - that's it

I'm sure The National Enquirer will cover it. I might spring for a copy.

to understand where that bad feeling is coming from. The crowds at Der Leader's funeral will dwarf those at Obama's inauguration, and everyone will talk about that for the next decade.

Meanwhile, in the moment, McCain's getting all the attention and adulation that is rightfully Trump's. Just more of a looong bad week that won't end.
