Cindy McCain says GOP no longer the 'party that my husband and I belonged to'

Cindy McCain, the widow of the late Sen. John McCain, said on a podcast released Wednesday that the Republican Party is "excluding people for the wrong reasons" and is no longer "the party that my husband and I belonged to."

When McCain was asked if Democrats have a chance to win Arizona in 2020, she said she "really can" see the southwestern state going blue.

"We have, on my side of the aisle, on the Republican side, we see a local party in Arizona that's not functioning well. And it's excluding people. And it's excluding people for the wrong reasons," McCain said in an interview for Politico's "Women Rule" podcast.

John McCain, whose career in Washington spanned decades, cultivated a reputation for occasionally opposing Republicans.

The state GOP is excluding ppl NOW? Lol. When ppl wonder why us Arizonans continued to keep McCain in office for decades — well the answer is because the AZ GOP wouldn’t allow anybody else to run against him. McCain had that organization sewn up tighter than a drum for years.

Can we all say thank you Lord? America has plenty of swamp dwelling criminals. The GOP is better every time it looses a swamp dweller by any means.

Well, maybe she can convice Ann Romney do divorce Willard and marry him. I’m beyond tired of the constant cannonizing of Saint John McCain.

The widow McCain should open up her home to MS-13 members.

They should not be excluded, right Cindy?

She’s absolutely right! The Party of Trump has no resemblance to the Parties of Corruption, Hate, and Evil!

I don’t think she likes the fact that the deep state Republicans are disappearing.
