As Sen. John McCain’s battled an aggressive form of brain cancer, he decided months ago he did not want the president attending his funeral.

Instead, family asked the White House in May that Vice President Mike Pence attend the service that will be held at Washington’s National Cathedral, The New York Times reported.

Although arrangements are not yet set after McCain’s death Saturday, former President George W. Bush and Barack Obama are expected to deliver eulogies, NBC News reported.

McCain had a contentious relationship with President Donald Trump who had belittled the Vietnam veteran’s war record, blasted him for a critical vote that ended a repeal measure of “Obamacare” and snubbed him when he signed a bill named for the senator without mentioning his name.

Trump did not attend the funeral for first lady Barbara Bush earlier this year to avoid disruptions and out of respect for the Bush family, officials at the White House said in April. First lady Melania Trump was at the service.

McCain, until his last breath carried vengeance, ill-will, and jealousy for not winning the presidential election. He hated president Trump so much until he forever closed his eyes.
Where do you think is he going after death?

He hated Trump? And here I thought it was the other way around. As for where he is going I would be willing to bet that he goes where all of us will go and no place else...

Sen. McCain did everything in his considerable power to oppose candidate Trump.
Sen. McCain did everything in his considerable power to oppose nominee Trump.
Sen. McCain did everything in his considerable power to oppose President Trump.
Sen. McCain often promoted his ability to 'reach out to the other side', for the good of our nation.
Why was Sen. McCain unable or unwilling to ever 'reach out' to the choice of republican voters?
Sen. McCain was a great man in many respects, but it seems to me that he was a mighty sore loser at the end.
I think that his 'final insult' was the most petty act of his life.

Who cares. The childishness of the swamp doesn't interest me.

What I do care about is what is getting done and what Trump is attempting to get done despite the severe obstruction of so many, and he's getting a lot done; witness the economy.

The GOP obstructed, blocked, and stonewalled everything Obama said and did for 8 years.
