The Mavericky Maverick is mad again. Watch, as Senator John McCain pants around his podium on the Senate floor, slamming single sheets of paper down, upset and irate with members of his own party over the IMF and the whole Russia/Ukraine thing.
AATTP explains;
Aid to Ukraine passed without IMF language, but many non-Reagan Republicans voted against it. In January, Obama and Democrats tried to pass a reform to the IMF legislation, but failed. Had it passed, perhaps this embarrassment would’ve been avoided for the Senator. He brought up a valid point: the Republicans shouldn’t be arguing about fixing the IMF language; the focus should be on the deaths of thousands of people and how to end it.
“I’ve been embarrassed before on the floor of the Senate, I will tell the President. But I haven’t been embarrassed this way about members of my own party.”
