The Hill: Trump attacks Meghan McCain and her family
The Hill ^ | 10/22/21 03:06 PM EDT | BY LEXI LONAS

Former President Trump attacked Meghan McCain and her family in a statement Friday, mocking her for saying she left ABC’s “The View” due to a toxic work environment and going after her father, the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who died in 2018.

“Isn’t it funny that Meghan McCain, who has always been a bully and basically a lowlife, is now complaining that it was she who was bullied by the Slobs and Radical Left maniacs of ‘The View,’ ” Trump said.

“In any event, Meghan should fight the Communists instead of explaining how they beat her, hurt her, and made her 'physically ill.' She should fight back against the Losers of The View the way she fights against very good and well-meaning Republicans, and she would do herself a world of good,” the former president added.

McCain recently announced her departure from “The View,” where she was the lone conservative voice for years.

In a new audiobook titled "Bad Republican,” McCain said there was "toxic, direct and purposeful hostility" towards her from her co-hosts.

Trump also attacked Meghan McCain's father.

“At the request of many of her representatives, I made it possible for her father to have the world’s longest funeral, designed and orchestrated by him, even though I was never, to put it mildly, a fan. In his own very special way, he was a RINO’s RINO,” Trump said, using an acronym for "Republican in name only."

In the statement, Trump continued to push the false narrative that he won the state of Arizona in the 2020 presidential election despite having no evidence for the claim.

Trump has continuously attacked the McCain family since John McCain died in 2018, with Meghan McCain firing back at Trump’s comments.

Meghan McCain recently said Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, and Jared Kushner had no right to go to her father’s funeral after Trump’s behavior.

"They should never have come," Meghan McCain said. "They had no business being there."

Yes! This is the sort of in-your-face response that I loved about DJTrump.

Write a nasty book about him? That makes it personal. Gloves come off.

“Trump Attacks Meghan McCain and her family”


Reminds me of some graffiti that was on a retaining wall, across the street from my favorite bar while in college.

Someone spray painted:

‘Your taxes are killing children in Nicaragua’

Two days later this was added:

‘So raise taxes!’

I say let’s keep the attacks on Meghan up!

Trump defends himself against Meghan McCain’s constant attacks. Whe tge heck is she? Does she hold office?

She knows that as was stolen. The numbers are available for anyone to see especially the many corrupt Republican AZ state reps

McCain her father was as untouchable as Obama for different reasons. No one was allowed to say a word against him. This corrupt keating 5 emblem.

He came out swinging at Trump who knew all about the deep corruption. Trump swung back and people defended McCain on cue. Tgey have no clue how Trump worked for us an McCain never did

Suburban women (I’m a suburban woman) defend McCain, they insult Trump they refuse to be informed.

McCain was the son of an admiral. He got an academy spot which he pissed away graduating bottom of the class. He crashed a plane then he crashed another.

Many POWs who got out of VN went on to continue to serve the country in the military, in business and in government without mentioning it.

McCain would not shut up about it. No one was allowed to point out any flaw in what he was doing to screw us up.

He publicly insulted Trump who was trying to get the country back. McCain who threw the Obama election, trying to ruin it for the Republican presidential candidate who was not about to throw it

He was disgusting. Trump defended himself, and us, against this terrible angry inept ma, this corrupt deal-maker who also could have chosen to just shut up

But people defend him

It is disgusting

And now the daughter She will not stop insulting Trump

She can’t just shut her ranting mouth.

Trump fires back as no one else will. Not one Republican will turn to her and say shut up. Trump is trying to save this country. Why don’t you go to arizona and fix the stolen election

But no one will. They continue to pike on to Trump.

Selective fake moral outrage doesn’t work anymore from liberals. I don’t care what they complain about.

“Former President Trump attacked Meghan McCain and her family…”

Like… with a knife? Or maybe, like with a cloth or something?…

Sheesh, what passes for “journalism” these days is absolutely pathetic.

McTurd was a poison on both America and Arizona. So glad he is gone and I wish the Meg would swell up further and blow away.

Very well said. McCain came from USN royalty …. Thus crashing a couple aircraft didn’t affect his career. Then he parlayed his POW experience into a lifetime in The Senate where he never missed an opportunity to attack Republicans. He had to maintain that ‘maverick’ monicker. And when he finally got his party’s presidential nom he runs a lackluster campaign where he did only one right thing: chose Sarah Palin as his VP candidate. And as a final insult from his death bed he provide the vote that allows Obamacare to survive.

My suburban housewife friend say, “see this is what drives women crazy. Why does he do this? This mss as ken him look petty.”
Women's emotions.
Another perfect example of why we should never elect a woman President.

I think you are right and I don’t understand.

You say your women friends support Trump, but disparage him at the same time? So, maybe you are saying that they repeat what they are hearing on TV, when they get together? That seems possible.

“Trump forgot to call McCain fat and ugly.”

Could of had a lasting impact on millions of teenage boys.

I find it infuriating that people are offended by Trump's relish for mixing it up and going bare-knuckles with people who have openly viciously slandered, personally denigrated, and brazenly stolen from him.

They don't like that he calls them names. They don't like that he takes time out of his busy day to do it, as if he doesn't have the bandwidth to respond. They think it is somehow "demeaning" or "beneath him".

I wish these people would just stuff it.

This has been a one way war for decades now, and our side has been taking it by refusing to dish it back and doing the equivalent of good-naturedly taping the "Kick Me" signs on the backs of our own allies, if not personally themselves as George Bush did.

These people seem to like it when a politician says as part of the putrid Washington DC game: "I disagree with my distinguished colleague across the aisle who is interested in the rights of everyone including those poor people who migrate from Mexico..." instead of as Trump might say it "Such and Such is such a low performing performing seal of Left who is more interested in the welfare of illegals whose first act on entering this country illegally is to break the law..." or whatever.

This is the type of politician we should have supported every step of the way. That is why I voted for Trump twice, and if he runs again, I will vote for him again.

I am sick of it. Sick to death of this.

I could give a good damn if he is crass, cruel, loutish, or inconsiderate to his opponents in his act of shining a light on their oily, duplicitous, perfidious and openly treasonous behavior. The fact that he makes up nicknames about them, and paints them in clownish if not evil lights bothers me not in the least. I applaud it. Because even if his attacks against these people are untrue (which they rarely are, unless you throw in with them and are a ball-washing fan of the 'Truth Checkers") that in itself has value.

Since January 20, 2021 look at what has happened to this country. This deliberate, intentional, malignant destruction of our country is being carried out in full view and with no pushback by the EXACT SAME PEOPLE who attack Trump because so many idiot people think the straightforward, direct, and on-target attacks by Trump on these people isn't "civil".

You know what isn't civil?

Calling out these people appropriately, even using obscenity like FJB isn't uncivil. It has come to be a necessity, and we all better get on board.

So people who whine about Trump making truthful yet crass comments about people who wish to destroy this country and those who aid them in it (such as turncoats like the deceased John McCain and his tool of a daughter Meghan McCain) isn't uncivil.

It is fighting back. And people who don't like it or are offended by it-I don't care. Just get out of the way.

There are those on FR who likes Trump’s going to the basement insults.. and some of his targets have it coming.
However there are those .. middlemen.. who think this is beneath a President. This modern age are used to handling things that way.

I wish he did his hits with a little humor...
(don’t come at me.. opinions are allowed)

Saw headline dems hate Bannon because he’s a fighter.
Must be another reason they hate Trump.. he’s a fighter too.

Precisely. Plus They don’t think critically

There is also a maternal peacemaker thing. In that model the bully wins and McCain and family are bullied.

I see that. The suburban women don’t

They say I like DeSantis. He’s nice and he’s effective

I ask them if they think the people who pushed trump out and all of his best people into jail or into their cult would let a governor from Florida take over.

They get mad and change the subject. Educated women. Masters. PhDs
