The Hill was first to report on Thursday that White House special assistant Kelly Sadler said that John McCains opposition to President Trumps CIA director nominee Gina Haspel didnt matter because hes dying anyway. The comment was reportedly meant as a joke, but it did not go over well with the rest of the people in the White House meeting, according to sources who spoke with the Hill.
John McCains wife Cindy McCain responded with a direct tweet to Sadler on Thursday, pointing out that my husband has a family, seven children and five grandchildren. Meghan McCain retweeted her mother.

And Meghan McCain is an idiot who isnt qualified to read sports scores at the local Little League game, let alone be on the FUCKING View, and anything that gives that BIGOT sympathy, works against the better good.
On the one hand what was said about her father is horrible, but why call the daughter, not the wife? The daughter goes on national TV daily and DEFENDS the traitor in the fucking WH

(115,615 posts)She apologized only because the remark became public, but the real problem isn't that it became public, but that she thought it and then said it. It shows you what kind of person she is - the kind of person who would work for someone who thinks those kinds of remarks are just fine and has made them himself. Fish rots from the head.
