<p>At around 1:30 a.m. EST Friday morning, Senator John McCain voted &quot;no&quot; on the <a href="https://www.someecards.com/news/politics/john-mccain-healthcare-tweets/">Trumpcare plan he helped advance</a> just a few days ago. He joined Sen.s Lisa Murkowski, who was <a href="https://www.someecards.com/news/politics/donald-trump-twitter-lisa-murkowski/">bullied by President Donald Trump over Twitter</a> for her opposition, and Susan Collins, who was <a href="https://www.someecards.com/news/politics/susan-collins-blake-farenthold-duel/">challenged to a duel by a Republican Congressman</a> for the same, as the only three Republicans to vote nay. It was enough to kill the repeal bill and <a href="https://www.someecards.com/news/politics/donald-trump-healthcare-repeal-twitter/">throw Trump into Twitter hysterics</a>.</p><div class="oembedall-container sec-iframe sec-oembed-iframe"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Watch the moment Sen.

John McCain voted 'no' on healthcare after voting 'yes' three days ago. Twitter's emotional.

At around 1:30 a.m. EST Friday morning, Senator John McCain voted &quot;no&quot; on the Trumpcare plan he helped advance just a few days ago. He joined Sen.s Lisa Murkowski, who was bullied by President Donald Trump over Twitter for her opposition, and Susan Collins, who was challenged to a duel by a Republican Congressman for the same, as the only three Republicans to vote nay. It was enough to kill the repeal bill and throw Trump into Twitter hysterics.Watch the moment Sen.
