Senator John McCain (R-AZ) was treated at Walter Reed Medical Center over the weekend for a minor tear in his right Achilles tendon, according to his website which further explains that he has returned to work in the Senate and will be wearing a walking boot until his injured tendon is fully healed. I can t tell you how much I hate wearing this boot!

So, far right-wing sites such as Gateway Pundit, a blog which was gifted with White House credentials (!), wrote up the breaking news about the boot-switch.Comments poured in the thread under the post, many speculating that McCain is under house arrest and wearing an ankle monitor. Trump supporters weighed in on Twitter, too.John McCain's walking boot mysteriously appears to swap feet in latest photo-It s official #bootgate is real https://t.co/nC3q3mYK5w  Eazy Duz MAGA (@socalmike_SD) November 23, 2017*hypocrite.WHAT A HIPOCRITE!!!

John McCain (@SenJohnMcCain) November 23, 2017As a surprise to no one ever, Trump supporters still do not believe McCain. The Arizona Senator has been receiving treatment for brain cancer after announcing in July that he had been diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of the disease. The tendon tear is considered a  normal  side effect of his cancer therapy.Image via Twitter.
