John McCain’s Son Registers as a Democrat, Endorses Kamala Harris

[Rebound]

Jimmy McCain Condemns Trump’s Arlington Cemetery Campaign Event

“Former President Donald Trump’s recent campaign event at Arlington National Cemetery has sparked outrage from 1st Lt. Jimmy McCain, the youngest son of the late Senator John McCain. Describing the event as a “violation” of the sacred space where generations of his family are buried, McCain expressed his deep disappointment and concern over the use of the cemetery as a political backdrop. This incident has further solidified his decision to distance himself from the Republican Party, a move that includes his recent registration as a Democrat and his support for Kamala Harris in the upcoming election, according to a report by CNN.

A Shift Away from the GOP

Jimmy McCain’s response to Trump’s Arlington event is part of a broader shift in his political alignment. Having served in the military for 17 years, McCain’s decision to register as a Democrat and support Kamala Harris marks a significant departure from his family’s traditionally conservative values. While other members of the McCain family, such as his mother Cindy and sister Meghan, have criticized Trump, Jimmy is the first to publicly abandon the Republican Party.

For McCain, the use of Arlington National Cemetery as a campaign venue crossed a line.”

No democrats are really republican. Some Republicans are really democrats.

If that's all it takes, maybe he never was a republican? 

I mean, I can understand being disillusioned based on policy.

But it would be for me, to switch to Republican after finding out Whoopi Goldberg doesn't shave her armpit hair or wear deodorant.

The sad part, is am not being serious, but since it's Whoopi, nobody questioned it to be false.

Did Donald Trump ask the soldiers buried at Arlington whether they wanted to be part of his political campaign?

Anyone with half a brain will see this simply as the other side playing politics for personal gain.

Biden was allowed to take pictures at the same site:

So, photo ops are bad if its Trump.

This doesn't hurt Trump any. There is a distrust of the media for a reason. This just plays into Trumps hands.

All democrats had to do, is pay Trump no mind, and present better policies and smoke him during interviews.

Right now, they are grasping at straws. Looking desperate. 

They have nothing to bring to the table, and Americans can smell it.

Or ANY of the OTHER soldiers' families? No, he STOLE their valor.

Just like when he called them "loser" and "sucker."

Except Biden's photos WERE NOT used in a CAMPAIGN VIDEO, nor taken by HIS CREW.

Your DESPERATE FALSE EQUIVALENCE notwithstanding.

It was the families of the dead soldiers. They matter more now. They're honouring their fallen loved ones.

McCain didn’t feel that way, and it must have upset him a lot, because draft-dodger Trump insulted his father for being a POW… which is pretty sick. 

Trump’s also insulted Congressional Medal of Honor winners for being killed or injured in order to receive the nation’s highest military decoration. Donald Trump is a pretty sick puppy.

McCain's opinion doesn't matter here, nor does Trump's service record. Trump didn't pretend to represent everyone in the US military and that's what counts.

Everything that Trump did at Arlington was 100% legit and the Dems shouldn't be throwing shade on families whose loved ones are buried in Arlington. They had every right to have Trump visit there.

That never happened either. 

He said it was better for that woman to receive that medal because she managed to do it without dying or getting shot a bunch of times. 

It was an odd distinction to make but it wasn't done as an insult, and only your faux-outrage crisis actors "feel" that way.

Donald Trump is a pretty sick puppy.

You're a pretty sick puppy for just lying all the time to try to prove your CNN talking points.

 Luckily for you, you're completely shameless and amoral so it's meaningless to you. 

 

And just so we're clear, there's no equivalency whatsoever between what Walz lied about and what Trump did at Arlington.

1. Trump paid respect to families who lost loved ones
2. Walz pretended that he served his country and exposed himself to the same risks that the American heroes buried at Arlington did, but he actually didn't. When Walz was faced with the prospect of going to Iraq with his unit he ditched the military. 

Now that we know Walz was made aware of the fact that his unit WAS going to Iraq BEFORE HE RETIRED, we know that he ditched them and ran away. https://www.foxnews.com/media/retired-national-guard-member-alleges-walz-left-his-unit-cnn-interview-he-went-around-me

• During his interview with CNN, former Minnesota National Guard Command Sgt. Maj. Doug Julin appeared to bolster criticism that Walz abandoned the unit with his account of the former Guardsman going around him to leave the National Guard before his team went to Iraq. 

  He relayed to CNN anchor Laura Coates that Walz and the whole unit – "including my boss, commander, and the command team" – had multiple meetings to discuss deployment months before Walz sought retirement. 

This isn't some random disgruntled grunt talking, it's Walz's former superior. He and Walz knew before his unit was officially given the notice that Walz keeps referring to that they were going to Iraq, and Walz actually gave his retirement notice during a 90-day period before deployment where soldiers aren't allowed to leave their unit. 

He knew his direct superior wouldn't have allowed him to skip out, so he bypassed him and went to someone else.

That's just weak. 

That's like a knock joke that doesn't get the punchline:

"Knock knock"

Who's there?

"Pizza delivery"

Pizza delivery, who?

"Uh, do you want your Pizza or not?"

Uh, do you want your Pizza or not, who?

Point am making, is they didn't get Pizza that night. Just like your punchline didn't land well, like a dog dropped on its back.

It seems the last of the Republicans with an ounce of integrity are switching parties, and abandoning the GOP. Colin Powell was an Honorable Republican, but at the very end of his life said he no longer recognised the Republican party, and no longer wished to associate himself with them. 

I will never forget when John McCain, sick and frail, in one last act in defiance to Trump, cast the deciding vote to prevent the repeal of Obamacare.  It was like McCain had the middle finger up, and pointing at Trump, as his casket was lowered to the ground.

John McCain wasn't a Demonrat (technically a RINO) until after he got brain cancer.

Just goes to show ya...

You make NO SENSE. McCain paid a huge price to defend this country and has an infinitely GREATER amount of credibility than YOU. Which is easily computed, since you have NONE.
