Was her deathbed request that Donald Trump not select Ruth Bussie’s replacement???
Any word from her daughter-in-law Carol?
When he ran for President the Left had all kind of nasty things to say about him—mean, far right wing...
>>The Obama campaign also committed the “sin” of belittling McCain’s war record, mocking him for the injuries he suffered, scoffing at his age, and even comparing him to a Nazi.
The following campaign ad joked about McCain’s inability to send an email.
““McCain’s severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes,” is the full Mary Leonard wrote in the Boston Globe in 2000 referred to in the ad.”

RIP.
Certainly hope they don’t say the cause was China virus.
She outlived two of her three kids.
Roberta’s political views did not represent the Republican party I belonged to.....however....she certainly had longevity genes!
Geebus can you imagine if he stayed in office until HE reached 108???
What is more amazing is her twin lived to 99!
She would’ve wanted us all to ‘hold our noses’ and vote to reelect Trump.
if you have enough money to spend, you can live to 108....24/7 care, every surgery to keep you going, best doctors, maybe a private doctor....any transplant you need....
Didn’t know he had a live mother!
Rather sad, despite the age, to see a child die before oneself.
What an age to get to, though!
RIP
RIP, Mrs. McCain. You lived a long, full life.
‘’’’’’’’’’’
See, there, I was good.
Not one reference to Rosemary’s Baby or anything...
Without question, her game went into overtime.
She lived through WWI, the Great Depression, and WWII. I wonder what someone born in 1912 thinks of todays snowflakes.
You are blessed to still have your mother. Prayers up for the 2 of you.
I lost my dear mother in 2007 at the age of 94, just about 6 weeks shy of 95. She outlived all of her siblings and their spouses and all of my father’s siblings, except one, and all of the spouses of those siblings except one. And my father was the eldest of 11 kids!
She was always strikingly beautiful and well-dressed. That’s about all I care to say.
Aw, hugs to you. Prayers up.
I doubt she’ll see him again.
