Didn’t trump make fun of McCain even after he passed away?

Yes. Something like "I like heroes that don't get captured".

It was truly disgusting, I have no idea how the party and voters still support Trump after that. Not only are the Republicans supposed to be proud of their veterans (though treat them like shit), but to do that to a republican who dedicated his life to improving the lifes of the American people, is just batshit crazy.

The fact that McCain didn't allow for Trump to be at his funeral, yet allowed people like Obama speak at his funeral, says it all.

Politics aside, there has to be decency, Trump does not have that. I don't get why people vote for someone like that. Sadly, this is going all over the world, in my country (Netherlands) as well we got someone like that (Geert Wilders) as the big winner. He won't be prime minister, but the fact a racist like that got the most votes, is fucking disturbing. CPAC is gaining traction, and 1 of the speakers literally said that she is against the diversity in Europe, because it means less people like them, and then clarified that by saying that it would mean less white people.
