The surprise announcement on Friday that Arizona Senator John McCain underwent “minimally invasive” brain surgery to remove a blood clot above his left eye left the political world in shock. It also jeopardized passage of the Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017, the GOP Senate replacement for Obamacare.
While Washington reeled from the news, there were confusing reports as to the details of McCain’s condition and what it might mean for the chances of a health care bill reaching President Donald Trump’s desk for signature this year.
Initial news reports appeared to downplay the seriousness of the procedure performed on the 80-year old senator, a persistent critic of President Trump and a fixture on mainstream media news shows as a political gadfly.
Over the weekend, medical experts began to weigh in on the McCain news and raise serious questions as to what his exact status might be. On the next page, you’ll find more background on his type of brain surgery and how long he might be sidelined before returning to work. Also, you’ll find out what it could mean for a health care bill passing in 2017.
Amen! These nasty comments are atrocious !
Could not find a brain!
Who cares about this idiot anymore. The only reason he was voted in was because Arizona didn’t want another Demo in office.
hope the mother fucker dies
So when does our government stop making decisions when 1 person isn’t able to be there. Don’t they know that in the past all they had to do was go to that person’s desk and vote for him. They sound like they are just looking for excuses why they don’t take action on things that need to be done. And brain surgery is only done on someone with a brain. Unless they are planning on putting a brain in the empty space that he’s been running around with all these years.
Oh that explains it all, “brain” surgery for someone without a brain!!!!
Didn’t even read the article but where do they get brain surgery when they said it was a blood clot above his eye? It’s questionable but his brain is at the base of his neck.
I don’t care for McCain but wish him no
Ill. he is 80 yrs old and needs to retire now so congress can get on with their business. I see this as another chance to usurp Trump. So disgusting.
Terms terms terms.
Retire old man, you are not doing America good any m ore, you are stripping her dignity and yours.
