"Not pleasant" moralist who deserted his whomper jawed wife

McCain on not supporting Trump: Women 'cannot be degraded and demeaned'

Sen. John McCain called his decision to withdraw his endorsement of Donald Trump “not pleasant” during a debate against his Senate campaign opponent Monday night, but said Trump’s graphic and vulgar discussion of women in recently published audio clips forced his hand.

“When Mr. Trump attacks women and demeans the women in our nation and in our society, that is a point where I just have to part company,” McCain said in the debate, broadcast on Arizona’s PBS station. “It’s not pleasant for me to renounce the nominee of our party. He won the nomination fair and square. But this is – I have daughters. I have friends. I have so many wonderful people on my staff. They cannot be degraded and demeaned in that fashion.”
