Meghan McCain: I Hate America Without My Father’s Leadership
Breitbart, Jan 26, 2019

Meghan McCain, co-host of ABC’s The View and daughter of the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), told CNN’s Van Jones in an interview broadcast Saturday that she hates the United States without her father’s leadership.

VAN JONES: What have you learned about grieving, and what have you learned since your father passed that you wish more Americans who, all of us faces at some point, knew?

MEGHAN MCCAIN:  [...]  As an American, I hate this country without him in it. I know that sounds awful. I don’t hate America but I just hate it without his leadership. And, I’m very sad all the time, and I’m struggling with that sadness. I miss him in ways I never could have even fathomed, and then I try and say “What would my dad say?” He’d say “We are McCains and we don’t feel sorry for ourselves, and we’re blessed. Get up and keep fighting, Meghan.” That’s what I kind of do every day, and some days are better than others.

MCCAIN: I call myself a conservative. I’m still a member of the Republican Party. I still vote on the Republican ticket., but Republicanism is so tied up with being for Trump. But, I’m also not a Never Trumper.  [...]

Quote
To me, when I grew up, conservativsm and character, my father was like really, really, I would say, militant about character. And now it seems like lying, well, it’s okay, it’s a little nebulous. Stealing, it’s a little nebulous. I just don’t think those are American characteristics.

How ironic.  In the first example she describes her father and in the second her mother.

Well as an American I think Meghan is a fat disgusting pig and her mother should be doing time in Jail.

Yeah. The Keating Five member and the pill popping thief are cited as role models. Eff her and the broke down donkey she limped in on.

What Leadership?

McCain led squat.  He was a member of a debating society.

With Romney now in the Senate, what's the frickin' difference?

Look: the woman loved and idolized her father. Losing him was obviously an emotional ordeal for her, as it is for all of us who have lost parents. I think she deserves a bit of a pass here.

The big difference is that McLame was able to wrap himself up in the American flag as a so called hero to give himself cred. Romney is just a garden variety loser that most people hate.

She gets an automatic pass if she keeps her bleep yap shut.  Otherwise she deserves to be ripped to shreds.

No. The death was a while ago and she is being presented as a thought leader by herself and the crap networks she guests on. It is also very deliberate wording going on here. She is not some innocent flower who is getting asked questions on her way to visit the grave. She is fully involved in making money saying stupid shit like this.

Every time I get depressed at the news, I remember McCain is dead, and then I'm happy again.

I'll tell you what: if she's still talking this way in a year's time, you'll know she's just looking for attention. Not that she hasn't done that before, as we all know. But in the short term: let her go. It's on CNN. No one's watching anyway, unless their plane is delayed.

Oh, absolutely. See my response to @RoosGirl. I'm letting her off now, not forever.

She could have kept it to herself, or confided her feelings to close friends privately.  But, NOOOOOOOOOO!

She's a public figure, which is her choice of course. And public figures sometimes verbally confuse their feelings with wisdom.

Ignore her.

Instead employ the time, on good future candidates, representatives and ideas.

Focus on persuading others; a skill set too rarely present with many conservatives.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

   I certainly don't miss him.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

She needs a Happy Meal, a New Flannel Cuddle Blankie and a trip to the nearest petting zoo.
My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.
