JOHN MCCAIN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “The widow and daughter of John McCain on Wednesday [3-20-19] criticized President Donald Trump and his online supporters for repeated attacks on the former U.S. senator, Republican presidential nominee and Vietnam War hero who was tortured during five and a half years spent as a prisoner of war. Speaking on Wednesday to an employee at an Ohio factory that makes military tanks, Trump again hammered McCain. ???So I have to be honest, I???ve never liked him much,??? Trump said. ???I really probably never will. But there are certain reasons for it.??? Meghan McCain, the daughter of the late senator, spent the last few days defending her father and politely criticizing Trump. On Wednesday she said the president had reached ‘a new, bizarre low – attacking someone who is not here is a new low.’”
