If Trump could have stopped the funeral he would have; he refused to fly the flag at half staff until public opinion made him. The fact is Trump is a petty vindictive little man.

Were not wanted either, but they showed up, invited by Lindsey Graham.

The American People and the People of Arizona gave John McCain the funeral he deserved.

You are a PIG, Donald J. Trump. May you rot in hell.

And we remember that you had to be SHAMED into lowering the American flag at the White House to honor McCain.
