One of McCain's real friends should challenge Lindsey (him being a Southern Gentleman) to a duel. Ah, except that would require him to defend his honor, of which, he has none.

The Republican party is a party of cowards. If even the President insulted my wife, my dad or my best friend in the ways that Trump has, I would go ape poo poo. I would lay down a barrage of curses so bad, the Pope would call for an Inquisition. The Republicans just either hide under their covers or roll on their backs. loving cowards!

I didn't even like McCain, but Trump should at least just shut up about a dead dude who served his country! Who was horribly tortured! Just shut the gently caress up!

It enrages me that my Dad, who loving VOLUNTEERED FOR VIET NAM!, voted for and supports a coward who mocks dead heros! I don't what happened to the man who raised me.

He has limited life force to dedicate to A) winning the primary, B) winning the general, and C) winning the general again. Even one iota wasted on McCain's moldering corpse is unacceptable.

ehh, who cares. bernie knows that sometimes you have to play the game. McCain being sainted is dumb but if it makes trump get mad and burn more support with the senate, i am ok with it. politics is dance. you can't play the radical who shits on people constantly, or you end up looking like cruz or trump even if your saying the right stuff. McCain is one of those people you feign tears for and then move on. if trump wants to make this about himself and burn some bridges and bernie plays the better man, then let them.

2012: President John Tyler’s grandsons are still alive!!

John Tyler was the 10th President of the United States. He was born in 1790 and took office in 1841. His son, Lyon Gardiner Tyler, was born in 1853, when Tyler was 63 years old. In turn, Lyon had six children with two different wives, two of whom were Lyon Gardiner Tyler, Jr. and Harrison Ruffin Tyler (born 1924 & 1928 respectively, when Lyon Sr. was in his 70s). They are reportedly both still living in their 80s.

Oral arguments are almost always a gigantic waste of everyone's time. They don't shift the decision on one case in twenty, and even then they probably shouldn't.

"Trump Has Now Shifted $1.3 Million Of Campaign-Donor Money Into His Business"

"Donald Trump has charged his own reelection campaign $1.3 million for rent, food, lodging and other expenses since taking office, according to a Forbes analysis of the latest campaign filings. And although outsiders have contributed more than $50 million to the campaign, the billionaire president hasn’t handed over any of his own cash. The net effect: $1.3 million of donor money has turned into $1.3 million of Trump money."
