Meghan McCain rips Trump at father’s memorial service
NY Post ^ | September 1, 2018 | Mary Kay Linge

Meghan McCain tore into an absent President Trump at a memorial service for her father, Arizona Sen. John McCain, in Washington on Saturday.

“We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness,” McCain, a co-host of “The View,” said at the National Cathedral. “The real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who lived lives of comfort and privilege.”

“He was a great fire who burned bright,” she said in a speech punctuated by sobbing. “A few have resented that fire… but my father never cared what they thought.

“The America of John McCain does not need to be made great again, because America was always great.”

He didnt want ANYONE involved in his 2008 campaign at his funeral..not just Sarah Palin, but those two evil scum Wallace and Schmidt, even those two babbling Commie idiots were not lefty enough for Juan McCain..he never wanted to be President and in a way Im glad he never became President, he would have been a DISASTER, at least Obama wasn’t a phony about his Commie agenda, McCain was all PHONY

That is an excellent point. She has never struggled financially. She’s no different than Chelsea “I was curious if I could care about [money] on some fundamental level” Clinton.

They have not the slightest understanding of why Trump received the votes he did. She might pretend to on that hag fest television show.

[[I shouldn’t talk, but when did she get so fat?]]

It’s just a trick of the camera- everyone knows the camera adds a few ounces-

“The America of John McCain does not need to be made great again, because America was always great.”

Sounds like Andrew Cuomo, a bitter Liberal.

No, kiss your factories goodbye with folks like her.

That’s it, Meghan, focus on Trump during dad’s funeral. Chip off the old bitter block.

All the feuding done by the McCains at this funeral make me object to a 'McCain' being appointed to succeed Senator John S. McCain III.

They are not a civil bunch by their actions of UNINVITING Sarah Palin...

Her words are about as vacuous as quotes from her father. I mean really the guy was a classless shill for elites.

The pudgeball just keeping it classy as always. She wouldn’t want to turn her father’s memorial service into a political circus. /s

Even if one believes that Trump has been somewhat petty towards McCain over the years, this is not particularly classy on their part. It Demonstrates the ego and entitlement of this entire family and exactly why none of them should be appointed to his Senate seat

Honey with that statement your credibility is so small it disappeared into the quantum realm.

Will the lemons ever stop falling from the McCain lemon tree? This is one classless, arrogant and delusional family and a pox on them all. This was not a funeral but a pathetic attempt at Trump bashing, shameful and deceptive. If John McCain was such a “hero” for his time as a POW, where were the rest of the POWs - heroes - at this funeral? Were there ANY there? Certainly, McCain’s military record does not make him a hero or deserve him much acclaim. As a Senator, he is known more for his back stabbing, anger tantrums, military screwing and obstruction of Republicans than anything else. McCain’s ONLY claim to fame is that he was anti-Trump.

Today Meghan McCain secured for her father a legacy of bitterness......

At most funerals I’ve attended, it’s God’s love that fills the room, not hate and animus for a person who is not even in attendance.... Megan McCain’s, (with a history of melodramatics), eulogy was incredibly angry as she weaponized her fathers funeral service against a man who was not even present.

The blurring of pain and vengeance is a fine line......she well crossed that line today.
