Two former friends of Sen. John McCain say his daughter Meghan McCain's pointed criticism of President Donald Trump in her speech at the Arizona Republican's memorial service on Saturday reflected the character of her late father.

"She is her father's daughter," South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." "If you say something bad about her dad, you will know it, whether you're the janitor or the President of the United States. She is grieving for the father she adored. I think most Americans understand that."

Former independent Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, who joined the program with Graham, said he was a "proud uncle" watching McCain's speech at the memorial service.

"She was direct ... the way John was," Lieberman said.

In her remarks on Saturday, McCain contrasted her father's legacy with Trump's rhetoric, saying, "The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again, because America was always great."(continued)

"'She is her father's daughter',"

So she's a miserable, petty, bitter, self-serving, vengeful pr*ck.

'What made Saturday’s shocking display all the more crass was that Trump’s daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared were invited to the funeral and were forced to sit there and be humiliated, which might have been the plan.'

All this manipulated invitation list nonsense to invite the Trump family to this end. The omission of Sarah Palin from the list is also telling of the McCain inner family's bitterness. Governor Palin would have done better to tell Senator and 2008 GOP Presidential Candidate John McCain 'No thank you. I need to focus on my responsibilities as Wife, Mother, and Governor.'

She is a spoiled brat.

[stanne]

Oh yeah. That too.

[hsmomx3]

Or her daughter does it for her. I refuse to purchase Budweiser beer.

[xzins]

Was it at church?

"Here's the articles author....kid Eli WAtson...."

Looks like an early Teen. Great Article from such a young person after listening to such dribble from adult pundits about the McCain Services.

[hsmomx3]

It was probably planned that way

[Portcall24]

Any goodwill this democrat in republican clothing had disappeared after the second funeral!

McQueeg. (Queeg in the movie)

"She is her father's daughter," South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham...

Greaaaaaaaat! More pettiness and vindictiveness
for...how many years...up to 6 with a second term?

[Savage Beast]

The USA has two political parties:
The Party of Trump and The Party of Hate.

If the governor gives her that seat she could be there for decades.

[philman_36]

If she were a member of Congress she would buffalo others
into compliance to her whims with her father's reputation.

[Seaplaner]

The REAL Meghan McCain exposed herself in her “speech”. She is EXACTLY like her father...embittered and hateful.

And, my good FRiend, YOU just made a critical observation.

Ms. McCain is thought by many to have political aspirations.

And, if she cannot keep spite and bitterness out of a funeral, thinking voters should conclude that she cannot represent them over her score-settling inner voices.

Her tragically psychotic spite needs to be kept visible (audible and searchable).

Deathbed confessions?

Oh I think she’d use other tactics. While she appears zaftik and grob to many of us, she’s still young and somewhat attractive.

“She is her father’s daughter,”

Ya Linseed, and his prior marriage there is a son who is his fathers son.
So WTF is your point linseed.
