Weaponizing a funeral
Leftists and swamp-dwellers alike are reveling in the anti-Trump rally disguised as a funeral that went on in Washington today.
Call it the Wellstone Memorial Redux.
The selected speakers didn’t so much as eulogize the sneerly departed as they did use their moment in the spotlight to take not-so-subtle digs at the sitting President.
It was petty, vindictive, passive/aggressive and childish.
You know. Like John McCain himself.
Partisan attacks at a funeral by folks bemoaning partisan attacks is quite the spectacle.

There was a time in American history when you could tell the difference between a funeral and a political rally.

And you know the terrifically sad thing about this?
Meghan isn’t dishonoring her father’s memory by take pot-shots at President Trump.
Not at all. She’s doing precisely what her father wanted done at his funeral.
The “UniParty” — as Sundance calls them — really do live in a bubble. They really believe that turning a funeral into an anti-Trump hit-job is a winning idea.
That’s what happens when you have zero acquaintance with actual Americans.
Within their echo chamber weaponizing a funeral to attack this President actually seems like a good plan.
And this right here is why idiots in the #FakeNews have been deifying McCain all week. They're wanted so badly for McCain's death to be used as a bludgeon against Trump. Now that they've gotten it, they're celebrating. Such craven and disgusting people. https://t.co/Al53aYZQXp

And it might feel good … for now.
I’m sure sitting down and eating five gallons of ice cream seems like a good idea at first too. I’ll have to ask Ana Navarro if that’s the case.
Going down that ice cream gives you all kinds of pleasure.
But when it comes back up, it’s nothing but bile.
If you think taking a 2×4 to the face is subtle, then sure, they were subtle swipes.
Just like the Wellstone Memorial, this is so gonna backfire on them. https://t.co/Dec0CGxL2z

These idiots just can’t stop pushing too hard and too far.
They’re willing to weaponize a funeral for crying out loud.
But these sorts of petty attacks on the President are never just attacks on Donald Trump.
Not at all.
They’re passive/aggressive digs at us.
This is no different than Hillary smearing Trump supporters as Deplorable to the delight of her audience.
But these idiots are so tone deaf it never occurs to them that Americans are getting sick and tired of this kind of slander and smears.
Instead, they just keep attacking us.
And the slobbering media celebrates the hate-fest.
#McCainMemorial was about two things: Remembering Sen. McCain and hating on Trump.
From the reporting on it, it seems the latter was sadly more important than anything else.

Sad to bring underlying references to politics at a funeral. CNN has David Axelrod saying this funeral was a rebuke of the President. What a petty thing indeed.

And meanwhile, out here in the real world, voters are paying attention to the disrespect, condescension and cruelty.
And we know exactly what it’s about.
Don't kid yourself, folks. This wasn't just against Trump. If you voted for him or support his presidency in any way, the partisan attacks at the funeral were aimed at you, too. https://t.co/WIrvt8a0oM

This is the epitome of the Swamp.
Nothing but naked disdain disguised as a funeral.
All they had to do is memorialize John McCain and lay him to rest.
But they couldn’t even do that.
Because destroying Trump and undoing the 2016 election means more to them than the country.
If they thought that weaponizing McCain’s funeral would cripple support for President Trump, trust me, they would hold a funeral for him every weekend until the Midterms.
And I think they’d do it with John McCain’s blessing.

And to add to the piling on of our President and we deplorables, all Fake News channels will run ‘re-runs’ of the scum bucket’s funeral[s] ALL week long next week and probably the next!
I am proud to say that I haven’t watched one second of this cartoon of a funeral! I’m glad others are and relating the low-lights for me!?
Same here!
Megan, anti Trump is anti ME and millions of other Americans. Losing proposition, Losing philosophy, Losing methodology. Enjoy your loss.
Proud to say I have watched NONE of this spectacle….. My only comment: good riddance!
Have they pried the senate seat out of McCain’s cold, dead hands yet?
I have coined a new word: “funerally” : A political rally thinly disguised as a funeral. I hope it catches on.
McCain started the feud but Trump was better at it. So those that thought McCain was untouchable are pissy now. In the long run McCain’s legacy will be more like Neville Chamberlain and less like Churchill
Megan McCain spent the last week auditioning for the Dems. Unable to “stay classy.” the entire establishment was petty, spiteful and small. Most of us think this carnival should have ended exactly a week ago.
The McSTAIN torch has been passed.
The McSTAIN torch has been passed to likely candidate. No big surprise.
Over at another website someone noted that Obama made reference to himself over 40 times while eulogizing McCain. I’m sure he didn’t refer to McCain nearly as often, but that was to be expected.
40 is on the low side for Barack. Unless it was only a 5 minute speech.
The canonization of McStain, to be quickly followed by Muledeer , electioneering for the Dems,( right up to the midterms.) I’m wondering if they will set up a NEVERTRUMP booth right in the polling place? It would appear “institutional Amerika” has no boundaries.
Meghan just proved that she is just as big a loser piece of trash as her dead old man ! Both Meghan and John were sorry losers, John is holding hands with his buddy Teddy Kennedy in hell right now !
Maybe now we can put a Republican in his Senate seat.
Jon Kyle just got named.
I was at the gym so I had to watch CNN. They played THE UNIPARTY hard. Many shots of a far left GOP President whispering “sweet nothings” into the ear of Mrs, O. The the same liberal GOP Pres hugging Mrs. O. The former Dem Sen , friend of both leaders of the UNIPARTY (GWB + Johnny) (Old guy cant bring up his name) lied about John’s military record.
the Bush and Obama family are sure close!
Should have just thrown him out with the rest of the weeks rotting trash and let the trash man and buzzards take care of him. Even that would have been too good for that traitor. Good riddance, can we just get back to the normal Trump bashing please? This special edition bashing is really getting old.
PS
The NeoCon liar is Joe Lieberman. Saxon name said lee-burr-man. But in English he lies!
She needs to spend more time at Weight Watchers or the gym on a treadmill instead of running her pie hole !
Proud to say I didn’t watch one minute of this “canonization” of Juan McLame. But, having being on line & having read the reports, I am truly disgusted with what transpired. Guess I’m not surprised at the Bushes kissing up to their supposed enemies (the Obamas and the McCains), but the Trump bashing was just appalling. The Fat Spawn will be hailed all over the anti-Trump media and will most certainly be applauded and sainted when she returns to The View. Can you imagine the reaction from the leftists hens on this show when she returns???? And if they do rename that Senate Office Building after that decrepit old fart Juan McLame, the news coverage will be on yet another week’s roll! Get ready for that, folks!
One small comment re: Meg. WHO THE HELL WEARS A HEAD BAND WITH A BUN??????????????????
Finally, is this shit over?
