That being said, I wouldn't wish what he's been diagnosed with on my own worst enemies.  I watched my father in law fight this for a year before it finally took him, and it's an utterly brutal, painful way to die.  From the sounds of it, he's got a particularly aggressive form of the disease, just as my father in law did.  

I do enjoy how our resident socialists/democrats feel the need to turn everything back on Trump.  He's living rent free in their heads right now.  The president issued a heartfelt statement on McCain.  He's capable of separating politics from the personal.  It's a shame others can't do the same.
