Most of the United States Citizens then or now had any idea that he gave up an early release because he did not want to be released until all of the prisoners were released and that he did not want to be a political token.

I doubt seriously Trump would not have said what he did had he known. I only found out about it a few years ago myself.



BTW, did you notice when he voted on the Bill to replace Obamacare. I think that was what he was voting on.

He had a grin on his face like he just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. No way of knowing for sure, but he may very well have taken out his ire against The American People for what Trump said about him.

If that is what he did I can only assume that his illness caused him to do it. I don't believe McCain was that kind of man.

Hot Rod, what low statement if any will the Twitterman ever make that you won't be able to excuse or make a lame excuse for him?

McCain was not that kind of man. Nope he wasn't ever an oxygen thief like the Twitterman. He put country before himself or Party. Something that you can rest assured the Twitterman will NEVER do.

He seldom apologizes, he has always been that way.


As soon as he heard he had The White House Fag lowered to half-staff and he sent a message of condolence.

McCain did not want him at his funeral and Trump will honor his wish.

Are any of the posters here running for President of the United States?

Has anyone here made fun of a handicapped reporter on National TV?

Have any of us tried to denigrate a Gold Star Mother on National TV?

Ias this what you guys are worried about?


""In my view: the Senate Judiciary Committee should immediately pause the consideration of the Kavanaugh nomination," Schumer declared. "The majority of the Senate still has not seen the bulk of Judge Kavanaugh's record. At the very least, the very least, it is unseemly for the President of the United States to be picking a Supreme Court Justice who could soon be, effectively, a juror in a case involving the president himself."

I was referring to racism and the attitudes towards women. I thought that is what you meant too.


"Has anyone here made fun of a handicapped reporter on National TV?"

I'm handicapped and true, they don't make fun of me, they just want me to die. And let's not forget the gentleman that Biden asked to stand up and take a bow.



"Have any of us tried to denigrate a Gold Star Mother on National TV?"


I have never seen him be anything but kind and appreciative of Gold Star Mothers.



"Have any of us claimed or corroborated the Twittermans claim that he witnessed hundreds of Muslims celebrating the fall of the WTC in the streets in New Jersey?"


Yes, he may have exaggerated a bit there. Personally, I saw quite a few Palestinians dancing and celebrating the WTC on TV.


I'm getting ready to watch Mark Levine on FOX. Candice Owens will be on. She is a treat to watch even if you disagree with her. She is young, but she is a powerful speaker.

"And I watched in Jersey City, N.J., where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. Thousands of people were cheering."

...there's been no video of anyone cheering on NJ rooftops

that's quite an 'exaggeration'

was part of his attacks on muslims... as was the gold star mother thing where he suggested 'maybe she wasn't allowed to speak'

and he claimed muslims living in the neighborhood of terrorists all know what the terrorists are up to

which was the point of his total bullshit lie about the San Bernardino terrorists that he told rally after rally, claiming people saw bombs all over the place & didn't report it
(there is no evidence of that at all... police found bombs... they did not claim they were on display openly for any visitors & a safe bet they were not... it was neighbors who saw a group of muslim men & didn't report it as the seed of his lie)


Trump is essentially the old woman in the well-known McCain video where she says Obama is a scary arab & McCain says 'no, he's not, he's a fine man' yadda yadda

no way Trump would do that or anything else respectable, he is & will remain total trash

She belongs to a group called Turning Point. She is the one that Kanye West was talking about when he said something to the effect that she is telling the truth.


"Charlie Kirk founded Turning Point USA in 2012, when he was 18 years old. At the 2012 Republican National Convention, Kirk met Foster Friess, a prominent Republican donor, and persuaded him to finance the organization.[7][8] Friess also serves on the organization's advisory council, alongside Ginni Thomas, wife of US Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.[9]

Turning Point USA's website says the organization has more than 300 chapters in colleges and high schools[10] and a "presence" in over 1,000.[11]

Turning Point holds several annual national conferences, including the Young Women's Leadership Summit (YWLS)[12] and the Young Latino Leadership Summit.[13] The National Rifle Association was the headline sponsor of the YWLS in 2017 and 2018.[12][14] According to The New York Times, YWLS "styles itself as an alternative to a liberal culture of feminism that many Republicans characterize as oppressive" and had by 2018 "evolved into an ultra-Trumpian event complete with 'lock her up' chants and vulgar T-shirts disparaging Hillary Clinton."[12] Candace Owens, who days prior to the 2018 conference stirred controversy by saying "the entire premise of #metoo is that women are stupid, weak, and inconsequential", was greeted with a standing ovation at the conference.[12]

Turning Point hosts an annual retreat; in West Palm Beach, Florida; in 2016 the event was sponsored by a dozen conservative groups, including FreedomWorks.[15]"

not that it will make any difference but I'll explain again

that bill was the 'skinny' repeal and multiple Senators only agreed to vote for it on the PROMISE that the House would NOT pass it (meaning they would change it) if they changed it, it would have to go back to Senate, and probably fail again just like all of the others had

listening to Trumps constant lies, you'd think that if McCain voted for it, Obamacare would've been repealed

All Trump has to hear is "bad polling" or "bad ratings", and he gives way.
