McCain is More Dangerous to his own side than to the enemy.

Vindictive and petulant, he would rather undermine Trump with lies, than support what's best for US. He prefers the approval of the Washington Post and CNN over the facts and truth. 
Fool that he is, McCain wouldn't allow Obama to be called Hussein or to bring up Rev. Wright during his terrible presidential campaign. m/r

Sworn Donald Trump enemy John McCain admitted Wednesday that he passed the dossier of claims of a Russian blackmail plot against the president-elect - calling it 'what any citizen should do'.
McCain - a longstanding anti-Trump Republican who had disassociated  himself from the candidate's campaign weeks before the election - cast himself as an innocent and concerned member of the public as he justified his move.
He claimed he had no idea whether it was accurate or not - but that he believed the FBI should have it because it was 'sensitive'.
'I did what any citizen should do. I received sensitive information and handed it to the FBI,' he told CNN - the network which broke the story that the document existed. It was then published in full by Buzzfeed.
