Opinion | Ashley Pratte: Republicans must reject Trump's disgraceful attacks on John McCain. - NBCNewsTHINK

that we are a nation of ideals, and that we are the custodians of those ideals at home and their champion abroad."We will not thrive in a world where our leadership and ideals are absent," he said."We wouldn't deserve to."John McCain used his funeral and memorial services to send a final, bipartisan farewell message to America

John McCain put his life on the line for our country through his military service and spent six years as a prisoner of war as a result, after which he served his country honorably for over 30 years in public office. He was always been a tireless advocate for American leadership, recognizing that America is stronger and safer when the world is stronger and safer.

President Trump’s words, actions and lack of leadership, by comparison, pose a threat to America’s role in the world. For example, Trump hasto pull out of crucial agreements and has said he would leave global organizations such as NATO that rely heavily on the leadership of the United States. Lawmakers like McCain courageously stepped forward to confront Trump’s dangerous policies; others now need to assume that mantle. We must always fight for what is right and hold those in elected office accountable — even when it's unpopular to do so, and even if the president of the United States might make you the next target of one of his shameful attacks.

THINK The trouble is, her idea of what is right and what is actually right could not be any further apart in any way shape or form!

THINK McCain is linked to the dossier

THINK Everyone who’s a fan of McCain today, hated him just a few short years ago. If you thought he was so great, and love him so, then why didn’t you vote for him?

THINK This is the most stupid article ever! Not even worth to read!

THINK John McCain died a traitor to the people that voted for him. The fake dossier that was passed by his staff was treasonous. The name John McCain deserves to be drug through the mud.

THINK They should override his veto.

THINK McCain was a traitor and false friend

THINK Get real, McCain was treasonous

THINK His political voting record is one of many reasons why the American people don’t WANT career politicians. He didn’t do crap unless it was to benefit himself and his wallet. He should’ve stayed out of politics

THINK Once you except that McCain was a traitor and actually caused the deaths of his own men your healing can begin .

THINK I am a veteran. John McCain was no hero. I know of his service record. And toward the end he sold out.

THINK McCain was a snake and corrupt.

THINK Move on

THINK Try to imitate some of Senator McCain’s courage and stand up to the president, who is nothing, if not, a bully

THINK John McCain screwed a lot of people. He treated SarahPalinUSA very bad!

THINK So, arming ISIS and AlQeada was the right thing to do? UsefulIdiots DebunkMSMbs

THINK Oh shut up.

THINK Every lefty love John McCain now that he's dead...

THINK mccain is everything that is wrong with politics. Him and his ilk have debased the American political process.

THINK The racist goof-ups, war-mongering, introduction of Trump's Mom Sarah Palin, his misogynistic attacks against Chelsea, Hillary and Janet Reno r well documented. And if in the USA the path to being a hero is to target civilian homes/factories then it is shameful JohnMcCain

THINK Did McCain do what was right to share a bogus report that started a 2 year witch hunt? Does that matter NBC? hacknewsorganization.

THINK ScrewMaggotMcCain That bitter codger had so many indiscretions and skeletons in his closet, he could have been a Kennedy.

THINK As Gomer Pyle USMC would say...

THINK McCain was involved with the FAKE dossier. McCain is a traitor! McCain was involved in an attempted coup! Screw McCain! Trump 2020!

THINK McCain was not doing what was right. He outright lied about how he was going to vote on repealing Obamacare and then went against his party and his constituents. He conspired with the creators of the Steele Dossier to try to destroy Trump. He was consumed by hate and meanness.

THINK Here comes a change in the narrative.

THINK

THINK Here’s an idea. Accept the results of the election and move forward with dignity. The last 2 years have been entirely undignified.

THINK Criticism is not an ATTACK You people need to stop with the faux outrage.

THINK JohnMcCain I didn't agree with some of Senator McCain's stands on issues however he help save ACA and for that act I'm extremely grateful. 📷 for GQMagazine by RichardBurbridge photo director agitpopworld
