In fact, he did it as recently as june of last year.

quote:

McCain said he intends to hold hearings on the Pentagon’s decision.

"I will be calling up the chiefs of the services, those men and women in uniform who are the heads of the military, and ask them their views, including the cost of implementing, I’m talking about the fiscal costs, of implementing some of these changes, and we’ll be having hearings," he vowed.


I will be drinking a cold beer for the first time in years when that brain cancer of his finally gets him out of the senate.

frick him. His two faced cowardly bullshite has no business being a part of what's supposed to be a party of responsible and unapologetic conservatives.

you really should read beyond the headline.

He isn't slamming Trans in the military, he is slamming the Obama admin's decision to move forward without consulting the Armed Svcs committee and politicizing an issue at the expense of the military. in addition to a myriad of other complaints about transparency and secrecy.

carry on with your morbid obsession with mccain's death.

McCain has done a John Kerry in reverse, as he was against it before he was for it.

Then McCain should be praising Trump for rolling back Obama's grave mistake of making such a radical move with the military without consulting Congress and the appropriate committees

But McCain is still slamming Trump for doing that and returning the military back to where it was before Obama fricked up on that.

frick McCain.

if anything his complaints about Trump today are consistent with his complaints from the Obama admins handling of the same issue.

Furthermore, it seems he was right in his criticism of Obama's handling, as a failure to enact legislation then has resulted in the tug of war back towards a ban now.

I think you owe John an e-pology.

What legislation would be needed? Serious question. There is no need for legislation.

Naw.

McCain complained about Obama opening transgenders up to military without consulting Congress.

Trump is just simply rolling back that mistake and McCain is shitting on him for it.

Too bad for him there isn't shite he can do about it that wouldn't get struck down in federal court.

frick him.

McCain accused Obama of acting partisan and political in undoing the transgender ban in the military.

Therefore he was against Obama's unbanning. Trump reversed this Obama partisan pandering order. McCain is partisan in bashing Trump for undoing Obama's hack. He is the chairman of the Armed Srvs Committee, are you saying McCain is not aware of this?

He is aware; he is just taking one for the establishment uniparty team on his way out. He is neverTrumpering in a hypocritical partisan whimper. The MSM and dems also... suddenly adore him and will cry fake tears at his funeral coverage.

Sounds like Trump is becoming a regular politician like McCain, Kerry, HRC, being against something before he was for it

1. Against sending more troops to Afghanistan

2. For abortion before he was against it

3. China currency

4. Was against US Import-Export bank, but now is in favor of it

5. Mexico paying for the wall

To many to list and that is just a few. He has become part of the swamp which is one of the biggest things he ran against.

McCain was a vocal opponent of gays serving in the military, much less transvestites.

McCain 11 positions on DADT

He insisted on waiting for a report, then asked for a new report when he got it and it didn't say what he wanted it to.

He insisted on waiting for input from "the generals" then dismissed their opinions as just "individual opinions".


Of course people on this board who were outraged in 1993 when Clinton tried to lift the gay ban will never admit how wrong they were on that issue.

On several issues. This pile of shite is just anti Trump period.

I don't wish death on many people , but since this frick obviously intends to die in office, I hope he dies soon.

I think I can now guess with some degree of accuracy exactly how John McCain survived his POW time in North Vietnam. He has a remarkable aptitude for turning coat and pleasing his enemies.
