McCain just saw WP: "We certainly don't want any president to leak classified information but...

[Miles Archer]

...the president does have the right to do that."

1. Really John?

jeez

[DURHAM D]

2. No, he does not.

He has to get permission from the country that gave it to us.

[Raster]

3. Oh Jesus Christ John, MAN THE FUCK UP...

...TIME TO IMPEACH!

[Eliot Rosewater]

28. He can woman up too, for that matter. I cant believe him anymore, I mean

jesus fucking christ, I thought he was a real patriot!

[Raster]

34. I concur on all points. I hold out faith in McCain....

...but that faith is fleeting.

[louis-t]

4. Has the right to do that if he wants to be put on trial.

I guess.

[C_U_L8R]

5. What a limp response

[LibraLiz1973]

6. WHAT?!?!??!

Is there any link to this?? Is this fucking real life????

[Ilsa]

12. Yes, it is. John McCain was hem-hawing around

on cnn. He then flopped onto the floor, to be scooped up by his aides, for lack of a spine.

[Freethinker65]

7. As expected. Graham will be next.

Then the GOP will turn all of the blame on the Washington Post for reporting about it

[StevieM]

8. "When the president does it, it isn't illegal." (eom)

[DBoon]

14. "I am not a crook"

Followed thereafter

[chelsea0011]

9. Well, he really put the hammer down on trump, didn't he?

[bagelsforbreakfast]

10. looks like Trump was right about McCain after all n/m

[Ilsa]

11. Wolf Blitzer is making excuses for him too:

He hasn't had a career in government, he was a businessman
He can declassify information, etc

I'm waiting for the following excuses to be revealed:
He's old and demented and hasn't a clue what he's doing
He owes the russians lots of money, and this is in lieu of loan repayment or dividends
He's a russian agent
He hates the US and doesn't give a shit about our military's safety or ours.

[LisaM]

26. Well, Wolf, perhaps your network shouldn't have spend an entire year....

legitimizing the candidacy of someone who was a "businessman".

[geek tragedy]

13. MAVERICK nt

[kacekwl]

33. Whore,

just like the rest of the gop.

[jaxind]

15. Could...

Could it be that now McCain doesn't mind covering for tRUMP cuz McCain's wife got the ambassador gig??!!

[enid602]

40. Surgeon

I think that was Gingrich's wife, but they're practically clones. Must have the same plastic surgeon.

[hatrack]

16. "Country First" my ASS!

Fuck you, John.

[KingCharlemagne]

17. They would already be starting impeachment if it were Barack or Hillary

who had done the same, the mother-fucking hypocrites.

[procon]

18. "When you're a star, they let you do anything." Donald Trump - Oct 7, 2016 nt

[BigmanPigman]

19. A Republican is a Republican is a Republican...

A Republican by any other name would stink so horribly.

[Mr. Ected]

20. McCain used to love the USA

He almost died for it.

Looks like a lifetime in Washington has turned him into a petty, selfish partisan.

Go home, John. You've come full circle, and are now in bed with the enemy.

[Glimmer of Hope]

21. Anyone with a spine? Hello?

[LiberalLovinLug]

22. McCain and his buddy Graham are worse than the Freedom Caucus

At least we know where the FC stands. At least they have some kind of consistent stance we can fight against.

Tweeledumb and Tweedledumber are worse in that they will occasionally pop up to say some mild criticism on Trump, I am guessing to try and not lose the moderate Republican voter in their own districts, or to show they actually do care. Then they shrink back into the woodwork and proceed to vote for every sleezy bill or appointment that the traitor Don wants them to support.

[ElementaryPenguin]

32. Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber - perfect names for that dynamic duo of dissapointment!

They are both such infuriating teases!

[NRaleighLiberal]

23. Vintage McCain

[Hortensis]

24. Classic 21st century McCain. Twisting in the wind.

He was once a POW. Does he wonder what happened/is happening still to the agent who sent this information from inside ISIS?

[old guy]

25. John has to quit making public statements,

till he takes his meds. Jeez.

[GallopingGhost]

27. Really, McCain?

From you?

Mr. Tough-on-Russia?

[JHB]

29. See the Amazing Maverick fearlessly toe The Party Line!

Trump cards are something you're supposed to play, John, not let them play you.

[Doreen]

30. McCain is a POS.

It is time to bring up the footage of trump telling the country during his campaign he would never tell what he is doing or giving the other guys info.

[milestogo]

31. Time to retire, you're losing it.

[NewRedDawn]

35. Another Sell out!

Johnnie you now sir are a collaborator with the Russians.

[uponit7771]

36. +1

[uponit7771]

37. +1

[Solly Mack]

38. Oh, lie down already.

[pansypoo53219]

39. patriot my ass. didn't he use america first?

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

41. As always. This guy's as useful as tits on a bull. nt
