rentAcock: He is a coward so you say.. did your father fight in the Nigerian civil war? if no, he was a coward. It's not illegal to give an excuse to not fight in a war. I understand why Nigerians hate trump, he has made it harder for you and your fellow criminal Nigerians to travel to US and constitute nuisance there. He's doing exactly what a good leader is supposed to do . Maybe you'll be the one to impeach him before November 2019. 1 Like |

He tried twice to become the President of the USA - and failed badly; even George W Bush - another war draft dodger beat him to it! he was such a hero that people thought there was something wrong with him the head and refused to let him be President. This is a man that voted for every war going and was always prepared to put American's military lives in danger for geo-politics and some other nefarious and money making schemes. Being a US pilot that got his plane downed, captured (tortured - according to him; something the USA now do openly and regularly - supported by himself); he is a lucky man to be alive and not killed instantly when he was captured. The havoc wreaked by the USA bombing of Vietnam and some of the other war crimes committed by the infantry would have meant instant death if the situation was reversed and it was Americans being bombed. We have seen what some of the US military have done in Afghanistan, Iraq and so on - they do revenge their deaths! I am glad to see that he went back to Hanoi even if it was to film and make even more money but being an American pilot against many other rag-tag nations without air power is often less risky than driving a car. TOTAL WAR MONGER: Here are the ones that I can think of, please point out any I missed in the comments: Afghanistan Bosnia Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Georgia Iran Iraq Kosovo Libya Mali Nigeria North Korea Sudan Syria United States (on the border) Bonus: Countries Where McCain Wants To Send Arms Libya - did Nicaragua Syria - did Ukraine - did --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NIGERIA is among the list - let that sink in! Unless you think that Nigeria should be wiped off the face of the Earth because it is a shit-hole. If anyone think inviting the USA to come and help you fight off your enemy from within is a good thing - then talk to the Libyans; all very messed up now. They will destroy the country and then make serious money rebuilding and the country will be one of their proxies for life! 1 Like |

Elder001: George W Bush also did not go to war. And his father was a military man for that matter. Going to war is a sacrifice and all those that serve are heroes; so McCain is not a special hero - and in that, Trump was right... (though he should not have said it - he gets too angry and cannot resist comebacks - foolish man). However, being an American pilot in the US Airforce is a lot easier than being an infantry man or an IPOB or Nja fighter in the civil war - the dangers are not the same at all. McCain was privileged - son and grandson of military personnel and with a past of making money on shady deals. He was also a war criminal - most US pilots end up being war criminals anyway because they often bomb indiscriminately and the bombing is rarely against military targets but civilian infrastructures and even civilians; to kill the spirit of the country and its people. He has made 23 sorties before being shot down - and that included light bulb making factories with civilian workers and many others. You can say he was unlucky but Vietnam did not have aircrafts and hardly any surface to air missiles - he mess up! Even though he was tortured; he broke (does that make him a hero - cue Trump again...) and he made propaganda videos for the enemy (heroes do not do that), and he even expressed remorse for bombing targets that are mostly civilians or civilian infrastructures. All in all - this man appears to be more of a hero because he got captured - that is messed up thinking! 1 Like |

Elder001: And yes doofus my dad did fight in the civil war. This isn't about my father or trump's father, it's about a man who not only dodged being drafted, yet had the balls to call a war hero a "coward." A chronic womanizer without honor, or character looks at a man who paid the ultimate sacrifice and belittle him for being captured in nam. But just like the rest of the internet maggots who quoted me, you have no clue, and you idolize Trump simply because you are misinformed. Oh i sure can't wait to come back here in a few months time to quote all u fools. |

bluecircle470:I'm saying it now because he is no different from a drunk in a beer parlour talking rubbish about a world issue he knows nothing about. Trump may not rule the US well, he may have no experience, the media may hate him but his supporters stand firm. The media has thrown everything they can at him but nothing ever sticks. They have followed the Russia collusion narrative for almost two years now, nothing fruitful in sight. I honestly believe the story is fake and a video came out once of a CNN executive claiming it was. His top chief and personal lawyer have caught jail time for different reasons and yet he stands tall, nothing for the media to pin on him. I believe he is the most bullied president in American history. It also doesn't help that he has no experience. I honestly don't see Hillary as someone capable for the same job -- all she did was live in the White House as the First Lady. Yet one man in a Nigerian village who probably doesn't own satellite TV is here discussing issues far from his thinking capacity when the majority of Americans have lost hope on seeing the president leave office or get impeached anytime soon. The smart ones are already seeing the people's thinking is manipulated by the media. As they have no solid evidence against Trump they're silently whispering the option of impeachment, hoping the public will catch on and try to act on it. 3 Likes |

Elder001: Because you, your ancestors and future generations are perpetual failures and will remain perpetual failures doesn't mean you should espouse such expectations on people you meet on a faceless forum. I know you are another misinformed idiot, obsessed with the bad-boy personality of Trump, but I will enlighten you until your cognition is in tip top shape. Trump has achieved nothing in life, he is rather a chronic failure whose CV is filled with several failed businesses, bankruptcy and illegal dealings. If not for daddy's money, Trump may never amount to anything more than a school janitor. Get this fact through your thick skull, America was great even before trump was born, and he is merely profiting from policies put in place by the former administration. |

FX: Spending your whole life as a senator will not make you great. It is the impact and quality of decisions you make that will stand out as a legacy when you are gone. If you don't leave the office then the office will leave you someday... No great man will take bitterness to the grave. People at that age should learn to forgive and seek forgiveness from all. Trump cannot do much since he made it public that he hates him in life and in death. Doesn't sound like a great man to me. 1 Like |

Ugosample: A republican who left hospital bed to cast and opposing vote to his party and the president's agenda, as a personal vendetta.... Then issues a public statement disinviting POTUS from his burial. Such a man doesn't deserve any olive branch. Honour and respect is a two way street. He lost it the day he joined the destroy-trump party. Hate Trump all you want but he will serve his 8 years as president and his results are speaking for him. You can't deny the record breaking boom in American economy and lowest unemployment figures. Trump is a fighter and he fights to finish! 2 Likes |
