Greatest. President. Ever.

One of the greatest things about our president is he doesn't go along with the media's fake bulls--t.


From the Washington Post:
President Trump nixed issuing a statement that praised the heroism and life of Sen. John McCain, telling senior aides he preferred to issue a tweet before posting one Saturday night that did not include any kind words for the late Arizona Republican.

Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Chief of Staff John F. Kelly and other White House aides advocated for an official statement that gave the decorated Vietnam War POW plaudits for his military and Senate service and called him a “hero,” according to current and former White House aides, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive internal deliberations. The original statement was drafted before McCain died Saturday, and Sanders and others edited a final version this weekend that was ready for the president, the aides said.

But Trump told aides he wanted to post a brief tweet instead, and the statement praising McCain’s life was not released.

“My deepest sympathies and respect go out to the family of Senator John McCain. Our hearts and prayers are with you!” Trump posted Saturday evening shortly after McCain’s death was announced.
The media loves to ignore the fact John McCain viciously attacked President Trump and his supporters first -- all the way back in 2015 -- saying Trump "fired up the crazies" by being strong on immigration.

As Politico reported at the time:
Donald Trump “fired up the crazies” in his state when he held a rally in Phoenix last weekend, Arizona Sen. John McCain said in a recent interview. During that appearance (and others last weekend), Trump was joined by the father of Jamiel Shaw, who was killed by an undocumented immigrant.

Trump has tapped into “some anger” in the state over the conditions at the border, McCain told The New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza in an article published Thursday.

“It’s very bad,” the Republican senator said. “This performance with our friend out in Phoenix is very hurtful to me,” McCain said. “Because what he did was he fired up the crazies.”

Trump’s latest polling numbers would seem to suggest that his message is resonating with Republican voters.

McCain, a longtime supporter of comprehensive immigration reform as a member of the Senate’s Gang of Eight, noted his battles with the far right, “very extreme element” of his state’s party over the years on the issue.

McCain made reference to Trump’s past support of Democratic candidates over the years, too.

“Some of this stuff is going to come out: He gave more money to Democrats than Republicans, he had Hillary Clinton at his wedding,” McCain said, referencing Trump’s 2005 wedding to his current wife Melania at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida.

“Now he galvanized them,” McCain said, according to the article. “He’s really got them activated.”
Rather than point to all the evidence which suggests McCain lied about his time as a POW in Vietnam, Trump defended his supporters from his attacks and gave him a mild ribbing by joking about how he likes "people that weren't captured" and saying how he "graduated last in his class."



McCain responded by doing everything in his power to sabotage Trump's presidency, including colluding with "former" British intelligence agent Christoper Steele to hand FBI director James Comey the Clinton-funded Steele dossier, which was then used to obtain a FISA warrant to spy on Trump's campaign.

McCain, after campaigning endlessly on repealing Obamacare, voted to save it just to spite Trump and stick it one last time to America. He also demanded endless sanctions while pushing for war with Russia and accused Rand Paul of being a Putin agent because he didn't want to have Montenegro join NATO (Trump felt the same way as Paul, though he eventually gave in).



McCain said he didn't want Trump to attend his funeral.

Why the hell would Trump give some giant statement praising him as a "hero" -- which is an objective lie -- after his death?


His statement was plenty nice.

While the media is busy feigning a deep and abiding love for McCain, never forget these are the same media propagandists who attacked McCain as a "racist" and a "white supremacist" when it mattered while he was running for president.








This is how McCain wanted to be honored:
