Decent interval over, as far as I'm concerned

And here's why. I always knew that John McCain, after campaigning on repealing Obama Care, wound up casting the deciding vote to kill repeal. What I didn't know was that he reportedly yukked it up with Chuck Schumer after the vote and remarked, "Let’s see Donald make America great again now".

Oh, and let's not forget that it was a senior McCain staffer who encouraged the IRS to target conservative non-profit groups (show of hands: how many people believe that staffer Henry Kerner acted on his own initiative and that McCain knew nothing about it? I'd say the probability of that scenario is in the neighborhood of zero).

Compare and contrast with another military hero, POW and politician, Jeremiah Denton.

Let’s see Donald make America great again now. Well, John, you've just made it a tad easier. Thanks.

It just gets worse and worse, the sheer arrogance of 'our betters'.

The thing is, they're not really elite; more like "elite lite". And self-proclaimed, at that, with no substantiating evidence.

I liked what Kurt Schlichter tweeted about that whole sorry affair:

"I note that, thanks to his enemies, Trump - without even trying - managed to be the star of the McCain funeral.

And a lot of people in the establishment in the press think today was a victory for them.

Nope."

The people who used TWO funderals to hurl invective at Trump are the same people who say that Trump has no class.,

Pot, kettle, black.
