The late Sen. John McCain's family plans to support former Vice President Joe Biden's White House bid, backing the Democrat not only in his party's crowded primary race but also in a general election matchup with President Trump, the Washington Examiner has learned.
In an extraordinary snub to Trump, who derided McCain's Vietnam War service and mocked him even after his death last August at age 81, the McCain family is preparing to break with the Republican Party. McCain represented the party in Congress for 35 years and was chosen as its presidential nominee in 2008, losing to Barack Obama.
Sources close to both Biden's presidential campaign and the McCains said that at some point during the White House race, McCain's widow Cindy, 64, and daughter Meghan, 34, a host on "The View," will offer their public support in the hope of removing Trump from office in 2020.

Nope, Willard was just as phony and just as much a ringer. I laid that out in about 10k posts way back when. Zero was as “shocked” by his “win” as Captain Renault was that gambling was going on at Rick’s.
In other news....John McCain is still Dead!! (Thanks God)
Meghan simply cannot accept the fact her father simply never wanted to be president. If he had, he would have actually tried to win.
That McCain was more harsh towards his 2000 and 2008 primary challengers than he was towards his 2008 general election opponent tells you everything you need to know.
McCain always exuded entitlement in his primary runs, then strangely deferred in his 2008 general election run.
Certainly Iraq War exhaustion and the 2008 financial crisis may have meant a Republican did not stand a chance in 2008, but if that is the situation, as the nominee, you need to damage your opponent so they enter the office weakened, to reduce their coat tails, and reduce their ability to implement their policies.
I just don’t get it.
Yet she has no problem with Biden grabbing, and touching little girls inappropriately.
And to think, I held my nose and voted for McCain back then.
Being traitorous runs in the McCain family.
“....McCain always exuded entitlement ....”
from aviators I know from that era - yes he did!
Now NeverTrumpers will begin to have Strange New Respect for the Socialist-Lite Biden, and support his candidacy, too.
They are the Silver Republicans of our era.
Since they’re not backing Hillary, they won’t be a factor in November.
Long ago Cindy was seen wearing a certain eagle brooch which indicated support for Hillary. Nothing really new here.
Just proving they are McCains.. nothing to see here.. move on.
I don’t mind if the McCain family wastes its own money.

Much like Hillary they cant get over losing
I’ve been saying this for 10 years.
Cindy McCain is a hard core Democrat and the plan has always been to have her replace John when he died and then flip to RAT.
Careful.
You’ll upset the NeverTrumpers.
And here I thought she was a mentally unstable pill popping drunkard.
She says Joe Biden is a friend, but she's not getting involved in the presidential election.
McCain family likes child fiddler Biden. Makes me wonder about John.
How is this an extraordinary snub, they have always acted like democrats
Megan has become very overweight and hostile. When her View faux conservative gig runs out, she will fade from the public eye.
