    NEW: Chuck Schumer says he will seek to rename one of the three Senate office buildings after John McCain. “Nothing will overcome the loss of Senator McCain, but so that generations remember him I will be introducing a resolution to rename the Russell building after him.”

        This is good. Russell was a Southern Dem famous for blocking civil rights bills for decades.

        Sweet, they can name it after McCain, who voted against the resolution to make MLK Day a national holiday. Meet the old boss, same as the new boss!

        Voting against a holiday is not the same as opposing civil rights you idiot.

        ah, yes. just voting against honoring one of the biggest voices of the civil rights movement is definitely a normal thing to do. nothing else in john mccain's record could indicate any racism at all, definitely not entire book's worthpic.twitter.com/ZLYi5QXOpJ

        Can't Pennsylvania Avenue be renamed McCain Blvd? If not that maybe the street in New York that Trump Tower is on?

        Haha, renaming a street for McCain where any Trump property is located would be an everlasting thorn in Trump's foot.

        Anything to get Richard Russell's name off that building. It's appalling it is named after him and that statue of him makes me sick.

        Russell was a vicious racist. Nothing should be named after him except for a room in hell.

        McCain wasn't much different. Read his history. He's just famous now because he openly hated Trump.

        Rename the room where @realDonaldTrump sleeps as the "McCain bedroom".

        It is politics. We're all supposed to work together for solutions. This year it has been proven republicans no longer work for solutions, but control.

        What are you a nit wit? Politics is supposed to be working together. I'm a great grandmother. You want to tell me again what I don't know? You got something green running down behind your ears.

        Ma'am, I don't disagree with you. Cooperation is one of my core political and personal principles. My point is that what Sen. Schumer did isn't related to political cooperation, but rather something more personal. Also, can you stop with the belittling comments? Unwarranted
