Bitter John McCain is not going to support President Trump’s cabinet pick for Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
From The Hill
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) announced Wednesday that he will not support Rep. Mick Mulvaney’s (R-S.C.) nomination to lead the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).McCain stressed his opposition wasn’t personal but focused on Mulvaney’s previous policy positions, accusing the conservative lawmaker of working to “torpedo” Senate efforts to increase defense spending.“My decision to oppose this nomination is not about one person. It is not about one Cabinet position,” said McCain, the chairman of the Armed Services Committee. “This is not political. This is about principle.”“[He] has spent his last six years pitting the national debt against our military,” McCain said of Mulvaney.McCain argued that confirming Mulvaney would effectively pit the White House’s budget office against the Pentagon.
Senator… Interesting That Principles Are A So-Called “Concern” To You…When You Have A History Of Ditching Them… For Opportunity….Over And Over Again…
Senator McCain is a walking, talking example of why we need term limits in Congress. He used to be a pretty nice guy & I used to like him, but he is off the rails now. I suspect Alzheimer’s, or old fashioned senility. Some suspect that he is being blackmailed by the intel community over more of the “Songbird McCain” tapes, one of which is already out there. Whatever is happening, he is working to destroy the nation with his support for wars against Syria, Iran, and Russia. His arming of ISIS was one of the most anti-American things I have ever seen.
The whole idea of more war at this point, after 15 years of continuous war, is insane. It is destroying our economy and our way of life. We are no longer a free people. Our Bill of Rights is being ignored by people like Obama and his ally McCain. We have to get these subversive insane warmongers under control.
McCain you should have died in Hanoi
Odd that he would “denounce” his own support. Did you mean “withhold”?
I would torpedo any defense spending McCain wants. McCain is an insane old turd who wants to fund wars in every country he can not to mention his unquestioning support for arming ISIS.
Crazy everybody include you duds.
i cannot fathom why anyone reports on what mc song(bird) says or does. ignore the runt, he is irrelevant, and has been so since his chatterbox nam tour he wants no one to find out about.
