Meghan McCain on her dad: 'I’m scared of America without him'
CBS News ^ | August 2, 2018 | Yvonne Wingett Sanchez

Posted on 08/03/2018 8:19:30 AM PDT by Trump20162020

In a new wide-ranging magazine interview, Meghan McCain offered details of her relationship with her father, U.S. Sen. John McCain, and how she has coped in the year since his father's brain cancer diagnosis.

McCain, a political commentator and co-host of ABC's "The View,' has used her perch to take on President Donald Trump for his repeated attacks on her father, as well his policies and rhetoric.

She told Glamour magazine the devastating diagnosis has caused her to approach life as her father did: unafraid.

"My father is the sun in my universe,' McCain, 33, told the magazine. "He's the absolute center.'

His daughter cannot imagine a world without him, she told Glamour.

"He's the last person who needs to be sick now because I so need him here, fighting for all the things that we believe in,' she says. "I'm scared of America without him.'

I have sympathy for a daughter who’s dad is dead, but let’s cut the crap.

The guy has never contributed anything positive to the Republic. His life is a litany of treason and cowardice at every step

Best thing to happen to America. Maybe he can grab Jane Fonda on the way out.

“He’s the last person who needs to be sick now”


I’m not sure he’s sick.
And that could apply under two different scenarios.

Right. Because the country can’t function without a war-mongering, angry, crooked enemy of Free Speech in a position of high power. Sure, Meghan.

I’m afraid many trips to the restroom will be redirected towards his final resting place and kill the grass.

These “prog’ snowflakes need to cowboy up and start doing for themselves and stop relying on everybody else for everything.

Yes, McCain is dying to prevent Trump from making America great again.
