| 'I'm Never Going to Forgive It.' Meghan McCain Hits Back at Pres. Trump's Attacks on Maverick |
| 2018-07-02 |
| [Time] Megan McCain made her feelings clear about the way President Donald Trump repeatedly attacks her father, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), over the weekend. On Friday, McCain accepted the Lyndon B. Johnson Liberty and Justice for All award in Texas on behalf of her father, who was diagnosed with brain cancer in July 2017. She said she remains angry about the way Trump talks about her father. "[Trump’s] comments are never going to be OK with me, especially at this moment in my life. I’m never going to forgive it," the co-host of ABC’s The View said on stage. "I’m never going to move on from it." Trump has a history of mocking Sen. McCain, especially for his "no" vote on whether Congress should repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, a key tenent of Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. He brought up McCain’s refusal to vote for his health care bill at a campaign rally for Sen. Dean Heller in Nevada last weekend, but avoided mentioning McCain by name. |

| #17 Maverick will be elevated to Sainthood soon. She'll be able to forget all of this unpleasantness. |

| #14 Trump's comments about McCain were very mild. On the other hand, my view is much more on point: "Benedict Arnold was also considered a war hero for a time." |

| #13 On Friday, McCain accepted the Lyndon B. Johnson Liberty and Justice for All award in Texas on behalf of her father... Tells me a lot right there. Anybody who cares about liberty and justice for all would refuse anything associated with Lyndon B. Johnson. |

| #12 She said she remains angry about the way Trump talks about her father. Sticks and Stones, eh? What about your failure to govern your father's remarks about P.Trump? |

| #11 Nobody cares, dear. They will when she replaces him as Senator on the 4th. |

| #10 A child should defend her father in all but the worst cases. She should get together and have drinks with Jeb's kids. |

| #5 Did her husband show her where to plagiarize that stance from? |

| #3 Unable to handle personal criticism is exactly why a McCain is not qualified for the job. Especially as vendictive as the McCains are after losing in battle. |
