“Meghan McCain, in an emotional and deeply personal eulogy of her father, took a tacit swipe at President Trump several times during her remarks,” the Washington Post reports.
“But the most pointed was when she said, ‘The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again, because America was always great’ — a reference to Trump’s campaign slogan. Rare for such a solemn gathering, applause rippled through the catherdral for several long seconds, passing over an audience which included Trump’s daughter and son-in-law, who sat stony faced.”
McCain also referenced her father’s “greatness,” saying his was the “real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly.”
