Pretty much as expected and the 7th hit for the DeathList this year.Breaking News: John McCain has died of brain cancer at 81. Once a prisoner of war, he made two bids for president and was a towering presence in the Senate.https://t.co/oWPRrWL6XX

I didn't agree with McCain at all but RIP.
81 years too late. Good riddance.
The funeral took place in Washington D.C. today and it is quite unbelievable how they have used it to attack the US President.
The tweet below is pretty much spot on. Pictured is an elite that now finds itself out of power, totally shaken by what has happened. And it is the same in Britain with Brexit: Tony Blair, Sir John Major, Lord Mandelson, Lord Adonis, Sir Nick Clegg - they're now an elite without a home. They've lost control of the agenda, of power and of their own parties. It's over for them but they do not yet realise it.
Edit: Tweet now deleted for some reason. Was a picture of Obama, W. Bush and Clinton at funeral today.
You've just criticised people for using it to attack Trump then went on to attack the "elite who finds itself out of power".
And? They turned it political.Quote:

a more apt example would be mentioning cucumber in a thread about fruit and then complaining about people talking about vegetables
I personally hope Satan had him cremated within the hour of his arrival.Quote:
