There were two admirals. McCain’s father and grandfather were both admirals. Whoever it was named for, it wasn’t the Senator.

Thank you........ NOT named after the slug from AZ. WAS indeed his dad. Still not deserved, IMHO.. but no one asked me.

The news slimes can’t even get THAT right. This morning in his little news conference on the way to the helicopter, he said he had nothing to do with that, didn’t know about it. More fake news.

“She is NOT named for the Senator, but for the admiral.”

True but hell, since we’re tearing down monuments because they were racists, let’s tear off the McCain name because it’s descendant is an asshole.
