McCain Points Finger at the Rich Boy Draft Dodger

No but he still dodged the draft and to "stayed home and capitalized on the system defended by blood"

So what you are saying is that Trump is just as un-American as Bill Clinton....ok I agree they are both are pieces of ****s that should have never been president.
 
I’ve yet to find someone who can even try to put up some sort of defense of President Worthless without mentioning Hillary, as if she’s the real reason we hate his guts.

That’s only because you don’t listen or ignore stuff you don’t like.
 
I have issues with McCain on some things but he has way more class and stability than the orange sphincter. But then so do a lot of people.

Just what I said, except I wouldn’t have necessarily called folks names.
 
I wonder why he doesn’t blame the system he’s a part of for the ability of some to evade the draft.

Uh, he essentially said the rich can buy their way out of anything. If that's not blaming the system. IDK what is.
 
There was a time when liberals idolized draft dodgers.
 
Getting out of serving your country, is just like draft dodging and worse when you become a military hawk sending other kids in harms way.
 
John McCain is showing himself to be one great guy and one of the very few Republicans on the Hill with the guts to speak truth to power.

About what? Ok, he served. Trump didn't, Obama didn't, Clinton didn't, Roosevelt, Hoover, they all didn't.
Some of the rich did, H W, and G W Bush.
Draft dodgers? Is that his point? I am sure it wasn't just the rich who did.
More recently, a few folks who volunteers for service yet refused to serve

God love him for his service and sacrifice, but McCain should stop taking cheap shots for a last hurrah and stop making a fool of himself. Time to talk about today's issues instead of dwelling on his past.
 
About time he took the gloves off in regards to the hypocrite in chief. It never ceases to amaze me the people that claim to be he most patriotic and gung ho when it comes to wars never served when asked. Other example are Ted Nugget and Dick Cheney, and there are many more chicken hawks.

Trump has taken it to a new level insulting those that made the ultimate sacrifice and their families.

Of the 25 or so announced candidates in the past election, only 1 served in the military, and I don't think he was a draftee. That also applies to 90% of the general population. There are plenty of lefty non servers also.

why did u leave out Bill Clinton?????
 
Though I like McCain and would have liked him to have become President, he has his priorities mixed up wasting hate on this drivel.

And ironically you defend or excuse Trump's antics on an almost daily basis.

Personally, I have no problem with draft dodgers. I do have a problem with hypocrites and chickenhawks, however.
 
Maybe every one who didn't go to Vietnam should be considered less of a citizen.

I don't see anyone doing that. What I do see is hypocrisy being called out.

He has always done that.

- Liberals bashed him with the rest throughout the Bush years, despite him being the only one that kept catching Senators and Generals hiding their bad military contracts behind "nothing is too good for our troops." When it came to his run for president the slogan was that he was "just like Bush."

- Despite pretending to be the part of America that actually cared about the troop, conservatives turned around and cheered for Trump's degradation of the military by insulting McCain. And now they scoff at him for daring to defy the GOP's political antics, which actually begged conservatives not to vote for Trump.

The Right is definitely in the midst of an identity crisis. But this say's something else too when Democrats can't even defeat a buffoon like Trump.
 
Fight fire with fire. Deferement Don did not even remember which foot had the bone spurs.
 
Ah the old others did it too argument to defend the sphincter in chief. Having lived through the Vietnam era McCain is spot on. People like Trump stayed home and capitalized on the system defended by blood. The less fortunate came home in body bags.

As far as your well it was a long time ago argument that's another fail. Is the halocaust less egregious because of how long ago it was?

Deferment Don served alright, he served himself to a helping of Vets GI Bill education benefits thru Trump U. He is a class act.

There was nothing cheap about McCains shot. It was well placed and well earned by Trump.
 
No he blamed Trump for being rich and that the system favors the rich.

He blamed the rich and said the system favors the rich. I’ll drink to that. So whose fault is it if the system favors the rich?
