Meghan McCain rips Trump at father’s memorial service
NY Post ^ | September 1, 2018 | Mary Kay Linge

Meghan McCain tore into an absent President Trump at a memorial service for her father, Arizona Sen. John McCain, in Washington on Saturday.

“We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness,” McCain, a co-host of “The View,” said at the National Cathedral. “The real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who lived lives of comfort and privilege.”

“He was a great fire who burned bright,” she said in a speech punctuated by sobbing. “A few have resented that fire… but my father never cared what they thought.

“The America of John McCain does not need to be made great again, because America was always great.”

I hope the AZ Governor was watching. She clearly failed her Senatorial audition.

Wikipedia says that Granny McCain there in the middle sued John's disabled first wife to reclaim her wedding gifts to the first wife when a divorce resulted from John cheating and dumping the first wife and kids.

You would think that Trump had something to do with the death of McCain. I do think that this whole funeral is an admission that Trump did mortal damage to McCain’s legacy. This is a feeble attempt at damage control. McCain lost, Trump won.

Does anyone here disagree with me that had Trump or Ivanka said something about a liberal at any funeral, they would be scorched for “exploiting the event of solemn sadness for their political purposes to settle old grudges. How crass.”-—on every TV news half hour update for four days.

Taking cheap shots at Trump is supposedly noble and uplifting and fun due to their political bias. Liberals at home say “Yay, get him. That’s a good shot at Trump.”

Just once when local liberals get their little giggles in I’m going to bust somebody’s face. One example: a booth in a coney island and the four were giggling about the time Melania slapped away Trump’s hand as they walked instead of holding his hand. Giggling went on for five minutes.

Dirty scum.

Goodness. She has gained quite a bit of weight. Time for Nutrisystem.

They can celebrate McLame all they want.

I am celebrating his just being done. Every time I see a story on his funeral, I just smile knowing that GOP turncoat can’t work against the GOP any longer. He is now with a different gang of 8. RIP. God bless him. I am just thrilled he is gone.

This is exactly what I would have written if I had your talent....so the only thing I can do is quote you.

“Will the lemons ever stop falling from the McCain lemon tree? This is one classless, arrogant and delusional family and a pox on them all. This was not a funeral but a pathetic attempt at Trump bashing, shameful and deceptive. If John McCain was such a “hero” for his time as a POW, where were the rest of the POWs - heroes - at this funeral? Were there ANY there? Certainly, McCain’s military record does not make him a hero or deserve him much acclaim. As a Senator, he is known more for his back stabbing, anger tantrums, military screwing and obstruction of Republicans than anything else. McCain’s ONLY claim to fame is that he was anti-Trump.”

One more time, a great description of Meghan McCain,
“Petty, vile, vindictive, classless, and bitter. Like Father. Like Daughter.”

Just for kicks...MAGAN would be a fun spelling. The President has really gotten to these people and they just don’t see what they are doing to themselves. I guess that is the meaning of blind hatred.

I applaud the greatness of the structural engineers who reinforced the platform she stood on.
