Meghan McCain didn’t know that Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner would attend her father’s funeral — and she wishes they hadn’t. “It made me uncomfortable,” McCain told Stephen Colbert when she was a guest on “The Late Show” Thursday night. “And I hope I made them uncomfortable, honestly.” McCain, a co-host of “The View,” also said that she is very much a conservative — but that if former Vice President Joe Biden runs for president and gets the Democratic nomination, “I’m going to have to quit television because I can’t say anything bad about him.”

When I watch President Trump talk to reporters, it gives me pause to think how rude a man he is as I watch him cut the reporters off and tell them to be quiet. How respectful are you supposed to be to anyone who treats you in such a way? Yet the reporters have jobs to do and a responsibility to their families and the public. I could not help but think of how lost a man Trump is, with a heart of stone, broken into a thousand pieces that only God can put back together again. How sad to...
