President Trumps attacks on the late John McCain mark the first time in memory where a President has picked a fight with a dead man and lost. McCain was no saint, but he was a brave and patriotic man. Hitting him when he cant hit back is repellent.

(3,910 posts)These people have hated John McCain for as long as I can remember. He represented compromise with Democrats which they have abandoned since the Gingrich era.

(2,010 posts)Voted For McCain!!! This is the simple fact from which the only conclusion one can draw is that Trump/McCain voters are mentally insane. You don't vote for a guy, and then 8 years later pretend you never did when the same guy says the new guy you want to vote for with the same (R) next to his name is dangerous for the country. They.Are.Nuts.

(23,002 posts)He almost single-handedly gave us politics as war. That's how the gop fights now. They hate dems irrationally for almost 3 decades now bc of that imbecile. I firmly believe it's why they think rampant cheating is ok bc we ARE the enemy to them. Just as sure as if we were in trenches facing each other in France. If we don't get with the program and start fighting like they do, we will lose. When we regain power, we can re-set the civility standards. Until then, the gloves should be off. That's my opinion.
