John McCain has been trying to destroy Donald Trump ever since, back in July 2015, Trump said McCain is no war hero … and Trump has been helping him
Back in July 2015, while campaigning in the Republican primary, Trump belittled John McCain during a presidential forum in Ames, Iowa. Here is what Trump said:
“He’s not a war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”
That was a dumbass statement if there ever was one. And it’s come back to bite Trump in the ass time after time.
John McCain is unforgiving. Ever since Trump belittled him with that stupid statement, McCain has been out to destroy Trump. At every opportunity, McCain has criticized Trump in Congress, before the media and on the world stage. And Trump has been helping McCain get his pound of flesh.
McCain’s most recent blast implied that Trump was trying to become a dictator when the President used Twitter on February 17 to say:
“The FAKE NEWS media is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!”
Another dumbass statement, even if true, which it is not. There is no doubt that the media is Trump’s enemy, but that does not make it the enemy of the American people, it just makes it untrustworthy.
Also on February 17, McCain made a blistering attack on Trump’s policies without naming him during a speech before the Security Conference in Munich, Germany. While blasting the President’s policies, he went so far as to compare today's American political atmosphere to the Nazi years of the 1930s and 1940s.
Trump continues to suffer from a bad case of foot-in-mouth disease which no one has been able to cure. During a rally in Melbourne, Florida on Saturday, the President said:
“Here’s the bottom line. We’ve got to keep our country safe. You look at what’s happening. We’ve got to keep our country safe. You look at what’s happening in Germany, you look at what’s happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this. Sweden!”
No, we can’t believe that because nothing untoward happened in Sweden Friday night, or the night before, or the night before that. And they used to make fun of Joe Biden.
As for John McCain, he is belittling himself by getting his revenge for what the president said about him in Ames back in 2015. While McCain was without question a true war hero during the Vietnam War, he is no hero now! He’s just a bitter old man getting his pound of flesh by bashing the President at every opportunity … and Trump is giving him plenty of opportunities.

I suspect a lot of it is simply that Trump did what McCain was unable to do. Simple jealousy. The fact that Trump dissed him along the way didn't help a bit.
