They all say that and let people believe their one vote is more important than the person sitting next to them.

I guess this is what happens when a draft dodger attempts to attack your military service.

Trump makes enemies...and then trumpkins don't understand why those enemies frick him over.

McCain didn't frick Trump over. He fricked the American people over. He broke his own promise and blaming Trump makes you somehow look fricking dumber than you already are.

Kudos

You think our Congress critters should be voting on bills based on who they are unhappy with? I don't.

I listened to only the first three minutes of the compilation, but the term “repeal“ was mentioned on eight occasions… Seven of them as part of the phrase “repeal and replace.“

The 2017 “Skinny Repeal“ legislation did not provide anything for “replace.”

“Repeal” without “replace” would have been a disaster, because of the harm that Obamacare had done to the private health insurance industry.

The Republicans as a whole (including McCain) should have had a full “repeal and replace“ package ready to go on day one. The entire party failed, not just McCain. he just had the good sense to understand that doing the job halfway would have been worse than doing nothing at all.

Hey a-hole.

Americans weren't fricked over. Quite a few of them like ACA and use it. Only retards like you hate it.

I guess donnie should have thought it through when president bonespurs was attacking a prisoner of war/navy hero.

McCain stood up and gave Trump the shiny middle finger. It was one of his many shining moments. There is a reason people called him a maverick.

Did he though? Recent Fox News poll showed Obamacare as more popular than the Trump tax cut. Maybe you’re just a salty bitch at odds with most of the country

If standing up to an a-hole is admirable to people like you, then why were you so critical of republicans standing up to obama? Talking out of both sides of your mouth must be a tiresome practice.

Except

the bill that McCain voted no for in 2017 was word ford word the same bill he voted yes for in 2016, so there goes the explanation that McCain voted no because he thought the bill was bad for America. He voted no because Trump, PERIOD. It was shameful.

Or maybe I supported whatever Obama was doing when the pubs were doing whatever the hell they were doing?

Nah that couldn't be it.

Face it. Trump was an idiot attacking senators he would later need to get his agenda through congress and paid a steep price.

Wrong. If you are sincere about what you say or stand for, how you feel about another person shouldn't change that.

Again, the bill McCain dramatically gave the thumbs down to in 2017 was the EXACT same bill he voted yes for in 2016. Same bill, not one single word was removed or replaced.

McCain didn't think that was a good bill in 2016 and then decide "no it really wasn't a good bill" in 2017 and every swinging dick in here realizes that.

Wrong. Every GOP vote on Obamacare during the Obama tenure was pure political theater. They lacked the power to actually do any harm to the program, so they could engage in meaningless gestures with impunity.

Once they had a GOP president, that bill ceased to be meaningless, and it became more important to actually CONSIDER the implications. Again, they SHOULD have had a full replacement ready to go. If they had done that, they would not have lost Snow, Murkowski ... OR McCain.

I'm sorry bud. I'm sure you are a nice enough dude with solid intentions. But if you really believe the American people like this healthcare debacle that didn't meet any of its targets - a bill that decimated dems for three straight election cycles - more than having their taxes lowered, than we just cant have a rational conversation. Maybe youre just an irrational bitch who believes whatever fits the narrative, no matter how illogical.
