Cindy McCain rebukes fellow Republican Trump to back Biden [pfft]
Dissociated Press ^ | September 23, 2020 | Jonathan J. Cooper

Cindy McCain has endorsed Democrat Joe Biden for president in a rebuke of President Donald Trump by the widow of the Republican Party’s 2008 nominee.

Trump has had a fraught relationship with John McCain’s family since he disparaged the Arizona senator during the 2016 campaign. But the family has until now stopped short of endorsing Trump’s rivals.

Cindy McCain cited the decadeslong friendship between her family and Biden’s and their bond as the parents of children serving in the military.

“He supports the troops and knows what it means for someone who has served,” McCain told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Tuesday. “Not only to love someone who has served, but understands what it means to send a child into combat. We’ve been great friends for many years, but we have a common thread in that we are Blue Star families.” […]

McCain’s backing could help Biden appeal to Republicans disaffected with the GOP president and give the former Democratic vice president a boost in Arizona, a crucial swing state that McCain represented in Congress for 35 years. …

what exactly makes her a Republican? I’m not seeing it.

They coined a word for that, RINO. Which should be RIRO, Republican in Registration only.

There are about three people who care what Cindy McCain thinks. And none of those three were voting for Trump anyway.

Plus the hate filled media. Race instigator Gayle King had her on CBS This Morning for and EXCLUSIVE interview. Cindy explained her thought process, Orange Man Bad. And CBS and Gayle actually think this is news, tell you they are really Leftist Activists. Did they ever interview Obama's Brother who endorsed Trump...….crickets.

Annapolis had to install a urinal at McCain’s gravesite so vets would stop pissing on his grave.

Cindy McCain endorsement really doesn’t mean much. Her husband hated Trump and she does too. Now, who cares?

It would’ve made a big difference if Trump would’ve been invited to McCain‘s funeral and given top priority out of respect for the presidency! But since they snubbed, mocked and belittle him during the funeral her Hiden endorsement means diddley squat to Trump’s base! Trump proved himself to be a gentleman by supplying a tremendous funeral for the McCain family... his base saw the way they treated him .. So that rich witch elitist can stick her endorsement where the sun don’t shine! Spit!

Bush League Republicans always back the Democrat against conservatives.
That’s how we lost Senate races in AL, IN, DE, NV, MO.

She’s a middle of the roader—that’s why she supports the destruction of the United States of Americ and the establishment of a communist dictatorship run by Kamala Harris.
