If McCain had won the Republican nomination back in 2000, I'd have voted for him. The world wouldn't be nearly as messed up today if he'd been President instead of Gee Dubya. I may not have agreed with him about everything, but he certainly earned my respect. McCain certainly deserved better than he got the past few years from his supposed allies in the Republican party. He towed the party line in public far longer than they deserved. He may well have been better than Bush (so would most people whose initials aren't "DT"), but let's not forget that McCain's foreign policy was extremely hawkish and that he supported the Iraq war pretty much the whole way through. The Iraq war wouldn't have happened without the Neocons that were surrounding Bush. If McCain wins at that time: no Rumsfeld, no Rove, etc. 9/11 doesn't turn into the Iraq war without neocons.

I think he would probably have won in 2008 if he hadn't picked Pailin as a running mate. Hmmm,... No proclamation from Trump to fly the flag at half staff until McCain's funeral

Wow, it took complaints from many veterans to get Trump to order flags flown at half staff until McCain's funeral. What a petulant child we have in the White House! Shameful!

If you have to play basketball with the name "Jordan" then you have mad expectations following you.
This man defied them. Bravo.

Only if you equate Ted Cruz with sports. Which I do not.

In addition to being unable to play basketball, Ted Cruz and his GOP buddies are completely clueless about how the general public reacts to things. This week, his campaign tweeted out a pic of his Dem opponent Beto O'Rourke from his days in a punk rock band with Cedric Bixler-Zavala (At The Drive-In, Mars Volta). Because Cruz is a colossal dork, he felt that people would react badly, instead of thinking that Beto is a cool guy who had better things to do with his time as a young man than joining the Young Republicans and doing interpretive mime, like playing music and getting laid.

No Cruz or Beto signs in town so I'll wait for a Castro to run for Senate.

The final deadline for reunification of parents and children separated and lost in the system expires today with more than 500 kids left to reunite.

Trump really stepped in dogshit now.
Trump's tweet :
Donald J Trump
Two long running, Obama era, investigations of two very popular Republican Congressmen were brought to a well publicized charge, just ahead of the Mid-Terms, by the Jeff Sessions Justice Department. Two easy wins now in doubt because there is not enough time. Good job Jeff...... 2:25 PM · Sep 3, 2018
That's pretty darn close to obstruction, if not damn close to "high crimes and misdemeanors" which is an impeachable offense .
A sitting president saying his own Justice Department Chief shouldn't have charged two people this close to the mid-term elections - just because they're also Republicans.
In other news, I think Bob Woodward's new book FEAR: Trump in the White House should be worth a look. Woodward is one half of the Washington Post team that broke the Watergate scandal and brought down the Nixon administration. He's covered at least seven presidents, and i do trust his journalistic integrity.

Manafort plead guilty to a truckload of crimes, and had to lose a lot of properties including his apartment in Trump Tower.
In exchange he will have to cooperate at all times with the Mueller Investigation😀
How many flippers does that make? At least 7?

Hahahaha Trump is blaming the almost 3,000 Puerto Rican deaths from last year's hurricane on a Democratic plot to make him look bad, when everybody knows "the.official Death count" is really only 64... Those other people must have died due to natural causes.
What disgusting idiotic moron!

I hadn't heard about that, actually. Looks like its pretty close to the state line of Texas, so thats probably why I hadn't heard much of it.
