Meghan McCain - the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain - called out at President Donald Trump shortly before his State of the Union speech Tuesday night over a dig he reportedly took at her father's book sales, posting on Twitter that his "obsession with my father 6 months after his death is pathetic and telling."
McCains comments were in response to reports that Trump took a shot at the former Republican senator who died in August after being diagnosed with brain cancer during a luncheon with television news anchors. In addition to criticizing Democrats, Trump reportedly said McCains final book - "The Restless Wave: Good Times, Just Causes, Great Fights and Other Appreciations" had "bombed."
She told Trump that "the greatness of my fathers life and legacy haunts you."

McCain, Flake and Romney. What a mess.
Daddy’s dead, time for her to move on with her life.
Immediately after stating “the greatness of my fathers life and legacy haunts you” - , Ms McCain was heard to give a low and mournful “Moo” and went back to chewing her cud.
WHOA...well summarized, THANK YOU!!
what haunts us is McCain's pathetic support of Obamacare and betrayal of his party.
Thank God!
Was just that his book bombed?
To hell with Meghan and her father.
Don’t give a damn about his damn book.....only care that he’s gone!!!!
I’m pretty sure she accomplished steps #1 and #2. Getting her to shut up, well, that’s a different matter.
Some legacy. Abandoned his first wife after being released from the Hanoi Hilton, the same woman who stood by him and suffered near-fatal injuries in a car crash while he was a POW.
And of course, her “Daddy” was the same guy who’s womanizing attracted the scrutiny of Navy brass after he re-qualified as a Navy pilot and became XO of a replacement training unit (RTU) in Jacksonville. “Cross-Country John” made an art of taking trainees on weekend flights to locations where there were plenty of hot babes, lots of alcohol, and the chance to hook up with someone else. There was actual discussion in senior Navy circles as to whether McCain should have been disciplined—even court-martialed—for his antics. Instead, he was reassigned to the Navy legislative liaison office in Washington, where (they concluded) McCain’s drinking and partying might generate some dividends for the Navy.
Ms. McCain might also recall that part of dear ol’ Dad’s legacy was hooking up with her mom—while stilled married to his first wife, Carol—after learning that Cindy was the richest woman in Arizona and could finance the lifestyle and political career he wanted.
In a general way, you are correct in not wanting to stomp on those that have passed. However in this case you must remember all the times that McCain, cut other peoples throat, just for spite. Daughter needs to stop tying to make him out as something he wasn’t, great statesman, hell no. I could list dozens of bad things he did, can any one name a good thing he did for this county.
McCain will forever be known as the most notorious traitor our nation has ever seen. Little fat daughter of traitor needs to STFU.
It takes time to get over the death of a loved one...
WHO was John McCain??????
The only cause she’s advancing is her pocketbook.
Yes. He was a turd and in her case, the apple didnt fall far from the tree.
You’re welcome and thank YOU! :-)
