Confidants of Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., told the White House that President Trump won’t be invited to the ailing senator’s funeral, according to a new report.

Plans for McCain’s funeral, according to the New York Times, include an invite for Vice President Mike Pence, but not the president. The service will be held at Washington’s National Cathedral.

Not a problem. DJT should simply plan to hold a rally in another city at precisely the same time as McCain’s funeral service.

Why would President Trump want to watch him dumped back in the sewer he helped create.

I don’t wish ill on the dying and I genuinely pray for a peaceful departure from this realm for McCain. Hoewver as much as I loathe Barky and his eight years on the road to socialism, I think that as a country we dodged a bullet when he defeated McCain in 08. I just believe he’d have

One year after McCain is dead, the only people with positive memories of him will be some members of his family and Lindsay Graham. The faux conservatives, Democrats, and members of the press who applauded him when he back stabbed fellow Republicans will move on to other games. McCain is a main whose ego craved the limelight and prostituted himself to gain the approval of the elites in society. He will die and 100 years from now will only be a footnote in the history books as the opponent who lost in the 2008 elections. His insignificant “accomplishments” and career as a US Senator will be forgotten. The man who craved the spotlight will spend eternity in a dark tomb.

Its McCain’s call, but its worth noting that Pence is invited.

Doesn’t that tell us reams of truth about who Mike Pence really is.........

actually it says a lot about the pettiness and leftist Alinsky tactics of McCain and his co-conspirators as he attempts to marginalize Trump.

You’ll have to wait until everyone else is gone if you plan to piss on his grave.

When did John McCain die? I didn’t hear anything about his death. I knew his was ill, but didn’t know he died.

The Navy reports that one jet Fighter will overfly the cathedral. The five empty slots represent the 5 planes Mc Cain crashed

If it was started this morning, it’s probably more than a 5 miles long by now. I will not stand in any line, that will be that long!
Maybe I would, if John Kerry and Hanoi Jane also punched out, they could have one line for the threesome!

McCain is probably the most despicable person ever to serve in the US Senate...

I've never heard of ANYONE being invited to a funeral, an invitation is not appropriate. They are open to anybody who comes to pay their respects.

Trump's got enough class to put himself above this kind of cheap shot.
