WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A top Republican has urged the White House to speak out against an aide who mocked Senator John McCain’s brain cancer during an internal meeting, but stopped short of calling on U.S. President Donald Trump to apologize.
South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, a close friend of McCain, told CBS’s “Face the Nation” program in an interview to be aired on Sunday that he was not satisfied with the White House’s response to the controversy surrounding Kelly Sadler, a communications aid.
“It’s (a) pretty disgusting thing to say, if it was a joke, it was a terrible joke,” Graham said. “I just wish somebody from the White House would tell the country that was inappropriate, that’s not who we are in the Trump administration.”

So McCain starts all of this by making headlines about not wanting Trump at his funeral and saying that selecting Sarah as his running mate in 2008 was a mistake. The self righteous nonsense from ones like Graham over this comment therefore does not compute.
more of a bottom
It isn’t true. Nobody said this. It’s fake news.
Republicans have no SENSE OF HUMOR.
Top RINO is more like it.
there. fixed it.
All these preaching, judgement morality experts are becoming tiresome. Why can’t these people just mind their own business?
Lindsay Graham was part of the Soggy Bottom Band.
FULG... mind your own business or we’ll ask you if you spit or swallow.
Lindsey Graham is grandstanding in effort to boost his credos for a run at the WH, but just like McPain he’s taking a stand at the bottom of the wrong hill.
McCain should’ve retired when he found out he had brain cancer
McDork deserves any criticism laid upon it.
Yes, it.
Since when is what they skimmed out of a scummy pond a “top Republican”? I have NEVER heard ‘’Lindsey Graham” and “top Republican” uttered in the same sentence! They should have a game show pitting Graham Cracker and David Camera Hogg against one another to see who vies for lens time more and who is fuller than the other of pure ______.
The songbird is a dying traitor. What is not factual and truthful about that statement.
McCain lived far longer than the men he left behind in Nam or the ones who died because of him on the carrier.

And who should condemn those who mock Trump?
This was said in a CLOSED DOOR MEETING of WHITE HOUSE STAFF!!! WHO LEAKED. THIS?? I heard that there were 5 people who leaked....out of about 20 that were there!!!!
No, he’s an eager bottom. Poor Lindsay, a bachelor all this time. He just couldn’t find a girl with the one feature he wanted most.
Poofter gets wild hair over his butt buddy.
I have seen this crap story recycled for 2 days now. Where is the call for an apology from McCain for the things he said?
