        "If you talk to any senator on Capitol Hill, they will say that John McCain is a fighter's fighter. They never counted him out in this battle. And they knew that he clearly wanted to give it everything he had," @nancycordes says https://cbsn.ws/2MzpQfx pic.twitter.com/EVIvxf1qb7

        There is one final moment when we have to painfully decide for ourselves to submit our whole being to the divine mercy of the One Who created us. It is that Trust in our loving God that, while we're still strong & alive, we find our solace & peace. My prayers!😔😔😥

        You have no clue about what you are talking about. its unfair to his fellow citizens now that he is resigned to the fact its over. It was different while he was still fighting, but he hasn't been to work in months. So get past the butterflies and think about real life

        It was your callous timing that was quite offensive, so stuff your butterflies and your phony Christianity.

        Yeah whatever dude. I don't even know how long he has been a senator probably my whole life. You don't resign any job bc you have cancer. He only stayed in bc it pisses Trump off bc Trump ran is mouth and mocked him being a war prisoner.
