    If McCain were running, the MSM would be saying horrible shit about him.

      Like saying he wasn’t a war hero since he got captured? Which is still better than dying since only “losers” and “suckers” get killed in war.

        What wretched asshole would say such a thing? Unimaginable.

        Still, it could be worse than the media saying it. Like it would take some of the lowest scum on the planet for someone in the context of running for or acting as president to say such a thing.

        Seriously, to paraphrase, “he’s just a hero because he got captured. Well I like the ones who weren’t captured”. And this from a giant asshole who never served after claiming to have “bone spurs” and called STDs in the 70s “his personal vietnam”. It’s unimaginable that basically anyone supports that insanely stupid windbag, but here we are.
