Will that be enough to push him over the edge?

(Oh, I hope so.)

I'm kind of curious what he's going to be doing during the funeral. He'll either go golfing to show it's not important to him or he'll try to upstage it with some major announcement at the White House. It's going to have to be really big, like fire Jeff Sessions big.

ETA: That's not a prediction, just an example.
 
So. Brett Kavanaugh is now likely to receive his 51st vote (perhaps only his 50th) from a non-elected replacement for John McCain, two months before a national election. The GOP is going to do the consistent thing and wait for the election now right?
 
Actually..... in the Mid-Term Elections thread someone linked to Dr. Crazy (Kelli Ward) claiming on Friday that the McCain family timed their statement about him refusing further cancer treatment.... so it would detract from her really big news that her campaign bus tour was starting out.

She's since removed the Tweet and naturally blames Fake News, but she made exactly the same claim that Cain did!

I independently hit upon the same idea because truth is convergent.
 
For a sitting President to be publically disinvited from a funeral for a distinguished member of his own party..........That is some kind of a new low for a sitting President.

As opposed to that for a former first lady from his own party.

Any non penitent statement made by Trump was always going to be in a losing battle with his own body of work and probably why not effort was made.

I noticed he retweeted a bunch of his own earlier, recent tweets just after that. My guess is to get the sympathy note to "scroll off the page". Notice he ended where he started, with the stock market report.

Social Media Giants are silencing millions of people. Can’t do this even if it means we must continue to hear Fake News like CNN, whose ratings have suffered gravely. People have to figure out what is real, and what is not, without censorship!

Big story out that the FBI ignored tens of thousands of Crooked Hillary Emails, many of which are REALLY BAD. Also gave false election info. I feel sure that we will soon be getting to the bottom of all of this corruption. At some point I may have to get involved!

....FISA abuse, Christopher Steele & his phony and corrupt Dossier, the Clinton Foundation, illegal surveillance of Trump Campaign, Russian collusion by Dems - and so much more. Open up the papers & documents without redaction? Come on Jeff, you can do it, the country is waiting!

“Department of Justice will not be improperly influenced by political considerations.” Jeff, this is GREAT, what everyone wants, so look into all of the corruption on the “other side” including deleted Emails, Comey lies & leaks, Mueller conflicts, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Ohr......

OH good Lord. That man has such an inferiority complex when it comes to Obama. The economy made steady gains throughout Obama's presidency. I'm surprised Trump is blaming Obama for the crash in the first place. Trump isn't fit to lick Obama's boots.
 
No doubt the fact that Obama will be delivering a eulogy will be chewing at Frump's butt as we speak... particularly because Obama will get plenty of air time afterwards from all of the news media.

Yup, it's going to chew away at Conald Frump's arse but good.


So with that thought in mind, here's my prediction:

A day or two after McCain's funeral, the orange clown will inform all of us just how terrible Obama's eulogy was... how terrible the economy was under Obama... how horrible Obama was as a president... and how the Kenyan born muslim doesn't even know how to pick out a proper tie for a funeral.

We'll hear about how behind closed doors Trump and McCain had some great talks, the best... and how Obama didn't have those kinds of talks with McCain like he did.

And Trump's eulogy would have been the best. The greatest in American history. Obama did such a disservice to such a great American war hero with his crappy eulogy, sad !

 
The (lack of) reaction of the Markets to the Cohen/Manafort/Pecker/Weisselberg news is interesting.
It seems that investors have figured that Republicans in the Senate won't impeach Trump no matter what.
Or that what happens to Trump won't have much long term impact on the markets,period.
Or they figure even if Trump goes, there will still be a Republican in the White House.
And I think a lot of the business world has no love for Trump because of his tariff policies.

The Moonie news loves Trump/ Whatta surprise.
 
I wonder if Trumpelstiltskin is going to continue to mock McCain's "thumbs down" vote against repealing the ACA. It would be tacky, petty, classless, and stupid. Which means he probably will.
