When trump called McCain a loser the audience laughed

[SoonerPride]

If they would have booed him off the stage his campaign would have been over then and there.

But they laughed.

They thought it was funny.

That gave him the OK to keep going and say worse.

Never forget they laughed.

1. Trump cult, they love their own stupidity.

2. In fact, I think I have heard all of these Trump/military stories before.

Perhaps they are having more impact because they are compiled in one article.

Am I imagining it? I'm sure I have heard the Kelly story, the cemetery story, the McCain flag story, the losers story in the past.

3. I agree. I know I heard the French cemetery story that weekend

4. Who was in the audience? Where was it?

6. Back when Bush screwed McCain, Bradley was my first choice, but I said that for a

republican, McCain might make a pretty good president. That was of course a real tentative "might". Then I said four years later, if McCain thought he'd be a good president, he should primary Bush. We sure as shit needed a better president by then.

It's amazing that Trump followers hate both of the previous republican candidates, or maybe not so much. The real reason is that they lost to a black man. That's also why the voter fraud fraud was ramped up. They make believe there was no way a black man could really have been elected president in this country.

They also hate McCain for the one encounter with the half-wit racist woman that said Obama was an "Arab". He straightened her out about that. That one was funny. Talk about confused. That was the only moran I heard call him an Arab. Muslim yes. Kenyan Muslim. But never Arab. She must have thought all Muslims were Arabs.

I'd be willing to bet that "loser" McCain was worth more than Trump before he became president.

8. Something I've been noticing about trump's

pattern of speech for a while now. Seems he thinks he is delivering a stand-up routine. Sometimes his timing is pretty good and he gets a laugh. It's not what he says to his flock of lemmings, it's how he says it.They aren't really listening to him.. just waiting for the punch line and his tell-tale, intimate smirk.. just for them. And when they laugh, you can see what a rush it is for him.. it's a physical thing.

And also, when they laugh he feels he can go further and often does, because his audience is with him. He is sharing the 'secret joke' with them.

He uses his brand of "comedy" to control his minions and they are so stupid they believe he is smart and witty.

"Nyuk-Nyuk- Lookit ma.. he made us laugh. He is so smart and he can make things go, too"

9. I never liked McCain's political choices

but he was the epitome of honor, service, sacrifice. And for that I have huge respect for him and all our POW/MIA service personnel.

10. The right wingers have hated McCain since he lost to Obama in 2008.

They don't have anything nice to say about him, and they certainly don't object to hearing him put down - not in any context.
