John McCain uses Trump's favourite insult against him after he fails to raise human rights with Duterte

Senator John McCaine has criticized President Donald Trump for sidelining human rights during his meeting with Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte. “Human rights obviously not a priority in @POTUS’s meeting with Duterte — again, sad,” Mr McCain wrote on Twitter, co-opting one of Mr Trump’s favourite ways to express his frustration. The tweet came after the White House indicated that the two world leaders had “briefly” discussed Mr Duterte’s drug crackdown that has left thousands of people dead in the country, and elicited accusations of human rights abuses, which Mr Duterte has denied.
