Most Americans met Wednesday night?s news that Arizona Senator John McCain was facing a dire diagnosis of brain cancer with shows of respect for the elder statesman and former prisoner of war. But to some on the extreme right, the longtime Republican is a traitor worthy of scorn, presumably because of his willingness to work with Democrats, as well as his criticism of President Donald Trump.
?The last president for McCain will be Trump. There?s some godly justice right there,? wrote one user on the ?Politically Incorrect? message board of social media network 4chan, a hothouse of right-wing memes.
?I?m pretty sure that God is punishing him,? wrote another 4chan user. ?God made it pretty clear that he supports New Right now.?
"John McCain = a war mongering, never Trumper whom I dislike," wrote a user on Gab, another social media network popular with the alt-right.
?Any death of a genuine eternal cuck should be celebrated. John McCain's passing, assuming he passes, will do our race a lot of good and that's what matters,? wrote a user on Reddit.
?He?s a traitor and a psychopath,? one responder said. ?His interests are of the globalists. They all need to die, faster the better. Then we straighten things out.?
John McCain cancer is ?godly justice,? Trump supporters claim
