... what the fuck is the deal with the exclamation point??? Is that supposed to be a substitution for actual sincerity?

I hadn't even considered that. At least he didn't add "Sad!" at the end.

This is sending a sympathy card with your own photo on the cover.

NO YOU FUCKING DON’T. John McCain was a MAN!! worthy of our love, respect, & tears. “A Jack Tar, he is, he was, he are”. YOU? YOU ARE A REPULSIVE COWARD not even worthy of our revulsion, derision & scorn. McCain will LOL from heaven when I say you are #LowerThanWhaleShit

John McCain's passing will be the #1 news item tonight, tomorrow, and the day of his funeral, at the very least. This will push tRumpie off the first page for that time, making him a happy man indeed as the nation's attention is directed elsewhere with no effort on his part.

tRump is slime.

45 will say and/or do something to knock it off the headlines.

but maybe he really is that stooopid. Whatever he might say or do would most certainly be very inappropriate, but that's never stopped him before, I guess.

While it might take some of the heat off of him for a bit, he’d resent the fact that he was not getting all the love and devotion he thinks he should get.

He will be disappointed to learn from this event (McCain’s passing) that a large number of us won’t give a rat’s ass when tRump dies. In fact, many will cheer and celebrate. Many of us, while not fans of McCain, do respect his service to the country. tRump will not get that kind of tribute at all. No tears or tributes for him.

Just like an innocent person would stay quiet and let Mueller finish his investigation because he'd know at the end he'd be vindicated.

But 45 is all about ME ME ME and it will anger him to turn on the tv and see all the attention and tributes going to McCain.

That will be played over and over again even after the funeral.

America will be reminded, once again, that we very recently had Presidents who, at minimum, could at least act like a somewhat literate adult and who, at best, were downright erudite and brilliant. As opposed to a fucking mental and emotional two-year-old in an old man suit.
