Trump Whines That Deceased John McCain Didn’t Thank Him For His Funeral

During a speech on Wednesday in Ohio, Donald Trump defended his attacks on Senator John McCain by saying that McCain was responsible for delivering the Steele Dossier to the public, and also that McCain didn’t thank him for the funeral that he “approved” for him (because he wasn’t alive.) Trump is really going off the deep end, and his attacks on McCain are starting to backfire among his supporters. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Yesterday, Donald Trump headed to a tank factory in Ohio where he spoke to workers about how much he just hates John McCain. Here's a clip.

John McCain received the, uh, uh, fake and phony dossier. Do you hear about the Duchesne? It was paid for by Crooked Hillary Clinton, right? And John McCain got it. He got it. And what did he do? Didn't call me. He turned it over to the FBI hoping to put me in jeopardy. And that's not the nicest thing to do. You know, when those people say, because I'm a very loyal person, John McCain, campaign for years to repeal and replace Obamacare for years in Arizona. Great State. I love the people of Arizona. But he campaigned for years for repeal and replace. So did rob. So did a lot of centers. When he finally had the chance to do it, he voted against repeal and replace. He voted against the two o'clock in the morning. Remember? Thumbs down. We said, what the hell happened? I endorsed him at his request and I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted, which as president, I had to approve. I don't care about this. I didn't get, thank you. That's okay.

Okay, so the president of the United States is apparently mad that a dead man didn't thank him for his funeral role. Ha. Who? Who was supposed to thank you. Was it John McCain himself? Because I don't think dead people can speak and I don't think he's going to come back from the grave as Zombie John McCain just to say thank you or maybe he's going to haunt you for the rest of your days walking around behind you with ghost form saying thanks for the funeral. Here's the thing. First and foremost, Donald Trump is lying about approving the funeral. He didn't have anything to do with it. He allowed the body to be transported on Air Force two and that is it. That was the extent of Donald Trump's involvement. In John McCain's funeral, the Senate passed a resolution that allowed for the massive funeral, the body lying in state that allowed all of that to happen. That was the senate. Trump had nothing to do with it. He was actually asked by the family to not even show up to the funeral, but Trump wants credit for it. He wants the dead man to rise from the grave and thank him for it. He wants the grieving family to walk up and say, Oh, thank you so much. I, I know you've been horrible to my husband or my father ever since you entered politics, but thank you for letting him fly on your plane for an hour or two. That's really thoughtful. You Jack Ass.

Okay.

I am no fan of John McCain. John McCain does not necessarily deserve all of the admiration and praise that he is currently getting. I do understand that he is a war survivor. He is a torture survivor and he is also during his time in the Senate was a strong advocate and critic
