John McCain, who has been battling an aggressive form of brain cancer for more than a year, doesn’t want President Trump to attend his funeral and prefers Vice President Pence to be there, according to a New York Times report.

In addition, former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama have been asked to deliver eulogies at McCain's funeral, sources close to both former presidents and McCain told CNN.

Pence should do the right thing and skip it too.

Hopefully the old bastard has an open casket so Pence can f*rt over his face.

That’s the contempt he has shown the ordinary man over his career if evil and treachery

DJT should send someone like the assistant deputy director of the Department of Agriculture...and a fruit basket.

In this case, I suspect that the governor might appoint himself. It would give him a chance to get his name in the public. Based on commentary within the state....some people think a quick election would not be beneficial for Gov Ducey if he did intend to run.

Odds on McCain’s wife? Just about zero.

“Even on his deathbed he can’t help being a petty, vengeful asshole”.

You nailed it.

No member of the Trump administration should attend Benedict Arnold's McCain's funeral.

According to the NYT the McCain clan is pushing Ducey to appoint Cindy. And Ducey once worked for her family’s Budweiser distributorship

The public has not seen or heard the man speaking since when? I have no reason to believe that he can still speak. The headlines are deceptive.

Also, I think Pence should skip the funeral. It will be an anti-Trump rally.

John McCain proves anal cancer is a real b1tch to the very end.

And before correcting me, think about it awhile.

I hope that President Trump gets to skip mcpain's funeral in June, 2018. If the prick, mcpain, can last until June 1, 2018, the pubbie gubbernor will get to appoint another pubbie until 2020, so there will be no additional drama.

Die in early June, you low life savings and loan thief and traitor from your 'war hero' days.

Then, rot in hell...Oh, today is Sunday and I've got to get to Confession before I go to late Mass, for being so un-Christian, FUJM.

When I go, I hope to have more grace than John can muster.

Some folks find reason to improve themselves in their last days.

Some folks double down.

He’s a senator. Listening to this you would think he is a head of state. What a deluded clown.
