Just Say "No, No, No," to Big Bad John.  No to Mean People. 

No to an Angry President.

Its that simple.  John McCain is an angry old man. He's probably in pain from his five years in captivity (only 2 years under torture, but even that is to much). Pain turns to anger very easily. Both generate frustration. Then impatience. And erratic behavior. A willingness to strike out. To strike back.  And Not neccessarily at an appropriate target. At a causative factor. Not in any way that will actually bring relief.  Pain even strikes out & attacks that which would have brought relief if it were welcomed. If it were seen as a sign of Hope.

IMO, the foregoing is self-evident. It's a logical progression. It's experiential.  For me, it's personal. 

Two of my cervical disks are displaced & bulging to the right. My L-1 vertebre is crushed; splayed like an 'old-fashioned' donut.

My L4 & L-5 vertebrae are canted; they are tipped so that the top of L-4, and the bottom of L-5, protrude to the back, (like so <), and L-4 has slipped down on L-5. I know pain. And unreasonable anger. It 'feels' like I know torture.

Pain slams me in the back with a 2 by 4 - but there is no one there.

How bad is McCain's pain? We can't know.  How bad is his anger? We can see it on his face:

How much will he strike out? And at who? We can listen & watch. But let's watch him in the Senate, not as President.
