Senator John McCain may have died, but his death and upcoming funeral unites people of many different persuasions, Republicans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives.
Actor Warren Beatty, a liberal Democrat, will be one of the pallbearers at the funeral this coming Saturday, along with former Vice President Joe Biden, former Secretary of Defense William Cohen, former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, former Senators Russ Feingold of Wisconsin and Gary Hart of Colorado, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, and former Homeland Security Secretary and Pennsylvania Governor Tom Ridge.
Tributes will be offered by Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, former Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, former Senator Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and members of McCain’s family.
McCain’s body will be interred at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, where he graduated fifth from the bottom of his class, but still led a distinctive career despite his partying and lack of seriousness while there.
One has to wonder who would be at Donald Trump’s funeral, since he has so alienated so many people and groups.
If Trumpty Dumpty dies, I’m blasting Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead over some loudspeakers.
HAHA, Rustbelt Democrat, a good one! LOL
Reports are that Lindsey Graham invited Ivanka and Jared to the funeral. He claims he didn’t. But he’s been known to lie a lot.
Trump and his supporters are attacking Meghan McCain’s powerful speech.
