Such as? I have to read this. His policy mindset is so well documented it's not even going to be easy to fudge.

A psychotic foreign policy for starters.



McCain has the old style uniparty foreign policy. He was the opposite of what the republican party is turning into as of late. He was closer to Bush/Cheney or Obama/Biden. Not sure if I'd call that psychotic though. It was a much more common stance among republicans and democrats just 20 years ago.

Trump has withdrawn troops from around the world by contrast, which has infuriated a lot of the MIC.

Maybe you were talking about something else and I'm missing it.

The Rona was always going to run its course. I'd imagine that the president has had more restrictions of those around him than most and he still got it.

Sweden was correct all along. The lockdowns were asinine. Let's line up a few more trillion dollar stimulus packages though.

Which one of the two groups is more likely to censor you for disagreeing with them?


Both. Both extremes are exactly the same.

Plenty of hardcore right and left groups do what they can to suppress opposite opinions.

Here is an article of right wing groups filing lawsuits to keep yoga and meditation out of schools

John McCain's support of permanent war around the globe is well documented. He not only has supported just about every American military action abroad since entering public life, he often argued we weren't doing enough invading around the world, even when the justifications for our presence there were lies. And then compare his policies to some of the largest donors to the institute in his name and you'll see a who's who of organizations (including the royal embassy of KSA) that profit from war or America's interventionist foreign policy. Just a cursory glance at the Board of Directors of the McCain Institute is like a neocon's wet dream.

John McCain's brand of foreign policy has caused the death of thousands of American service members. And those who make it back have numerous physical and psychological scars they deal with every day. John McCain's brand of foreign policy has also killed hundreds of thousands of Muslim civilians throughout the Middle East. This in turn radicalizes more Muslims against the United States, which makes us less safe. The difference between McCain and say Mitt Romney or Marco Rubio is that John McCain got a taste of the horrors of war and yet still voted for needless war after needless war his entire political career. That's why I thought he was a disgusting human being.

bullshite. Open censorship has been a core part of the Democrat's strategy of advancing their ideology (which is no longer liberal) as of late.

The more libertarian types that value of freedom of speech, right to worship as you choose, right to own guns....tend to reluctantly vote republican.

“It’s crazy ... these same people applauded when McCain died, joked when John Lewis passed away, wished death on a (healthy) President Obama daily... now they full of compassion... “

Link to video of people applauding McCain death?

What planet are you on? John McCain supported the Iraq War, the Afghanistan War, the Libyan War, the Syrian War and famously coined a Beach Boys song to the tune of Bomb Iran. This doesn't even include his ridiculous neo-McCarthyist desire to start another Cold War with Russia and his aggressive posture towards North Korea, a country with a GDP less than the state of Wyoming.

Do the 5 people who downvoted you know that your quote is John McCain calling Rand Paul an agent of Putin for opposing Montenegro joining NATO? Do the people who downvoted you know that Rand Paul's opposition to NATO is based on the collective defense provision in the treaty, which usurps Congress's sole power to declare war?

I do appreciate that Mccain warned of Russia still being a formidable foe when debating Obama and just being laughed at as living in the past.

Then Democrats pounding the tables that everyone is not looking at Russia.
