Congratulations on choosing such a wonderful photo of McCain. It sums up his attitude perfectly. I think he must have had a stroke or something to have turned into the monster he is today.

I don’t think he’s had a stroke, JT. I think he is just extremely frustrated at the way his life seems to be ending. He lost the presidential election in 2008, President Obama had to “spank” him in a public debate on HCR, and his efforts to derail the president’s agenda have failed, especially his attempt to prevent the passage of the repeal of DADT.

He knows deep within his soul that he is a failure, and that few still feel the need to “defer” to him. He has milked his POW status for all it’s worth since he returned from Vietnam. I respect his having been a POW, but I don’t respect the way he has used it to make himself more important than he actually is. Other POWs went through the same things he did but have not sought to capitalize on it. IMO, these men are the real heroes.

— Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), quoted by CBS News.

“Here’s the problem with the red meat: It becomes an addiction. Once you go there and you put that out there, then you’re forced to defend it. So what do they do? They double down. They triple down again.”

— Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed (D), quoted by the Washington Post, on Republicans relying on anti-Muslim attacks in the Michigan U.S. Senate race.

— Stephen Miller, quoted by The Guardian, pledging “total devotion” to President Trump.
