    Trump extended every courtesy he could to the McCain family despite their petty and vindictive treatment of him.

      Could you give some examples?

        It was reported (but not by the liberal media, of course) that Trump ordered his staff to accommodate the McCain family in every way possible, regardless of logistics or expense. I can't remember where it was reported, though.

          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              In other words, no, you can't give any examples. Surely you can dig something up at Breitbart, no?

                  You've got no room to talk here, Jim. ...and, as demonstrated directly above, you wouldn't pay any attention to a source anyhow. I'd chalk it up to chutzpah, but I'm leaning increasingly toward "terminally self-unaware."

                    Yeah, actually I do, OBP. I can cite sources, and do, when I feel it's worth my while. MM's answer in this case is that he can't.

                      Which is why he initially said "I can't remember where it was reported, though."

                        Right, he can't!

                            And I posted an example that even Snopes reported was surprising to the detractors, but Peewee laughed it off.

                              I learned long ago that no one and nothing, including cited sources, actual facts, are going to change the fixed minds of you right wing conservative christians. That's why you are right wing conservative christians.
