You can't win a war against a dead hero

President Trump has decided to double down and continue his crusade against a dead war hero.

Amid reports that the White House directed the Navy to keep the USS John McCain "out of sight" during Trump's visit to Japan (without Trump's knowledge), the president decided to weigh in to the press.

"I was very angry with John McCain because he killed healthcare. I was not a big fan of John McCain in any way, shape, or form. I think John McCain had a lot with getting President Bush — a lot to do with it to go into the Middle East, which was a catastrophe," Trump said en route to Colorado. "To me, John McCain, I wasn’t a fan. But I would never do a thing like that. Somebody did it because they thought I didn't like him. They were well-meaning, I will say."

Trump has a unique ability to troll his enemies into derangement. On the campaign trail, he touted Muslim bans and 2,000-mile concrete walls. But as president, he's managed to cajole Democrats into embracing literal open borders. During the early stages of the Mueller investigation, Trump called it witch hunt. But now that Democrats still want to chase uncharged and potentially nonexistent process crimes, the House has actually sort of began a witch hunt.

Besides the ones who make this stuff up and twist it?

In the main thread on the topic, WSJ doubled down this afternoon and said they have multiple Navy sources including the Secretary of the Navy and even a picture of the tarp covering the name.

It isn't like the WSJ to BS, they are one of the most reliable.

That doesn't mean the president ordered it (they didn't actually claim that), probably just some staffer making assumptions.

Assumptions make an ass out of the Press.
