Sources said that McCain had requested that George W Bush and Barack Obama deliver the eulogies at his funeral.

Two family members reiterated to CNN on Saturday that Trump won’t be present at the service.



...President Trump should stay far, far away from this soon-to-be liberal lovefest.

If Trump had made a longer comment praising McCain’s “achievements”, the media headline would be:

Trump, not invited to funeral, ignores McCain family wishes by issuing a pre-funeral eulogy,

The more that the Bush family outs itself, the easier it will be for all the Establishment Pubbies as they come to understand more of the truth to their treason and criminality.

Better yet he should schedule a rally and have a bombshell announcement.

That’s probably a relief to him anyway.

Since they are deliberately excluding him, his statement of sympathy is all that’s required, IMO.

He doesn’t need to fawn over McCain.

The family shunning the president and not inviting Trump to the funeral would be yet another dishonorable act of a man’s/his families questionable conservative loyalties in his final years.

We will see if this story is accurate, but if it proves to be so..let McCain’s legacy speak for itself.

Piece of subhuman offal should have Satan deliver his eulogy.

TurNed off TV. The lavish praise bestowed on this pile of vomit us too much to take.

Donald Trump clearly shows his integrity in shunning this “love-fest” by liberals and shills for the traitor John McCain. The only thing that McCain has ever done in government is to block all major Republican efforts to ensure our freedoms. He was nothing more than a Democrat in Republican clothing. He began his “wonderful” career by screwing his buddies in the tiger cages in Vietnam and from there...spent his life sabotaging Republican bills in Congress. This is a great day for America.

Does one pay tribute to a pile of excrement?
Does one pay tribute to a toilet that will not flush?
Of course, the libs lauded Dead Ted as a saint.
‘Nuff said.

Daily Mail is the sleaziest of sleazy rags. Article after article praising McCain, them some articles dumping on Trump, and the balance made up with stories about their inbred, dysfunctional monarchy. The brits should try cleaning up their own national disaster before criticizing others.

Today (same as last night), no TV for me.

The McCain eulogies and propaganda consume the networks. There's no other news happening in the world....and, certainly, the repetitive adulation will continue for many, many more days as he will be laying in state in AZ and in DC, then the funeral and internment at the Naval Academy in Maryland.

The establishment, the media, the Left and the family are all busily milking and manipulating the hapless public with might and main without shame...or the truth.

With all the pomp and circumstance, you would think a Democrat president had died yesterday....(and you would be pretty much correct).

McCain reportedly spent the last year of his life planning his own funeral, CNN reported Saturday night. Friends of the senator said he wanted the service held at three locations: Arizona, the National Cathedral in Washington and Annapolis, Maryland.

Even though this arrogant creep was the Designated Loser in 2008 and lost to W in 2000, he still wanted, and arranged for himself the closest possible equivalent to a Presidential funeral, one similar to the great, and fully earned, funeral that was given to Renaldus Magnus by the people of the United States.

Trump's being attacked for extending condolences to the family rather than making an insincere tribute to a man who hated his guts and tried to destroy him. I thought POTUS's comment was appropriate under the circumstances.

I suppose he could have responded like my father upon the death of his stepfather (who beat him every day and twice on Sunday): "I hope the bastard rots in hell." Or maybe like Bette Davis when Joan Crawford died: "You should never say bad things about the dead, only good. Joan Crawford is dead. Good.”

Are we to assume these DC elites have never known similar family dynamics? If so, my how sheltered.

However, I think it's just the stink of rank hypocrisy hanging in the air. And to that I say, P U .
