MAGA

quote:

President Donald Trump thanked multiple members of Congress involved in passing the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act at a signing ceremony at Fort Drum, New York, Monday, with one major exception: the senator for whom the bill is named.

"We would not be here for today's signing ceremony without the dedicated efforts without the dedicated members of Congress who worked so hard to pass the National Defense Authorization Act," Trump said, namechecking Republican members of Congress including Rep. Elise Stefanik, who spoke briefly and represents the district containing Fort Drum, as well as Don Baker, Dan Donovan, Joe Wilson and Martha McSally.


quote:

The bill's formal name is the "John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019," and it is listed on the White House daily guidance as such, but Trump simply called it the "National Defense Authorization Act" at Fort Drum.

What CNN wants us to be outraged at: trump not specifically mentioning McCain at bill signing

What we should be outraged at: an unnecessary increase in military spending

Trump should ban every single member of his administration from attending McCain's funeral.

You do realize that expenses for the military are not just for more bombs, tanks, etc right?

A lot of it has to do with infrastructure for the military bases, higher wages, etc etc etc

Yeah we don’t spend enough. Let’s spend $1 trillion on defense. Hell why not $2 trillion?

Trump should hold a rally at the same time McCain’s funeral is taking place.

Yes.

McCain was seditious as frick for his role in peddling the bogus collusion dossier and backstabbed his constituents in the back repeatedly.

McCain does not deserve the honor of being lionized in death by the same President of the United States who he fought so hard to prevent from taking office.
