John McCain Reportedly Wants Obama at His Funeral But Not Trump

The family of Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) does not plan to invite President Donald Trump to the senator’s funeral when the time comes, according to a New York Times report.

McCain and Trump have long had a contentious relationship, including Trump slamming McCain and insisting he was not a war hero during his 2016 campaign.

“He’s not a war hero,” Trump said back then, referring to the former prisoner of war. “He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured.”

The relationship did not get better after Trump was elected, particularly after Trump mocked McCain after he voted against a key Obamacare repeal.

According to NBC, it is McCain’s wish that Trump not attend....

Q refers to McLame as “No Name” as in Traitor. Speaks volumes.

Pence will make a big mistake if he attends, after his boss was snubbed.
Conservatives will not like the images they see on TV.

Interesting—thanks for the information. The details of protocol are interesting. I bet Cheney has been glad ever after that he missed the Wellstone debacle. At this point, most of the people who actually were there probably deny it.

I guess he will be buried in Arlington.

...........

That would be my guess also.

His grandfather and father are buried there.

Is McCain hanging on to the seat so that the governor will appoint his wife Cindy to finish his term? What do you think the chances are for a new Senator McCain?

Come on now, think about this.
RNC rolled out McCain, Romney and want to roll out Jeb.

RNC is the swamp.

He can have who he wants. I’m hoping Pence has another engagement that just can’t be broken.

I’m also hoping someone releases the Vietnam Nam records that show why we call him Song Bird

You are quite right. I am actually a big Pence supporter, but if he attends McCain’s funeral I will be very disappointed.

MAGA Trump ought to throw a rally in Phoenix at the same time as the funeral, more people will attend the rally, and have more fun than McCain’s cluster*uck.

I am sorry I ever pulled the voting machine for this POS.

Not to worry, wait a week after his funeral and he can easily use his position to cut the line and piss on his grave.

Who do you think the Gov. would appoint as his replacement?

I don’t know if Cindy McCain would be the same if not under the thumb of angry McCain.

A rare error on the part of the D’s. If they had held the rally with Cheney in attendance, it would have lent some cover to the illusion that there’s not a dime’s worth of difference between the two parties.
