Sen. Lindsey Graham would like to see the White House apologize for a "disgusting" joke that was made about the health of his friend, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who is battling brain cancer.
Last week, a White House press aide, Kelly Sadler, joked to colleagues during a closed-door meeting mocked McCain’s health after he called for his Senate colleagues to reject Gina Haspel’s nomination for CIA director. “It doesn’t matter, he’s dying anyway,” Sadler said.
Graham, R-S.C., said if this was in fact a joke, "it was a terrible joke."
"I just wish somebody from the White House would tell the country that was inappropriate, that's not who we are in the Trump administration," Graham told "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan for an interview that will air Sunday on CBS....

I wish I was a cowboy... Or maybe an astronaut.
Really? Many years ago when McCain and Kerry were conducting a meeting with family members of Vietnam Nam MIA McCain told one of the wives to stop whining her husband was probably dead.
What goes around comes around
Dear Linda:
“No. Your move”
Let’s start with apologies from Mad Maxine for some of her outrageous statements.
Linda Graham being a United States Senator is a “terrible joke.”
I can’t see this being a joke. Seems like a frank, realistic observation. I don’t see any glee, mocking or celebration.
In all likelihood, McCain probably WILL be dead soon. Facts is facts...
*********************************************
Yep...it’s a plain statement of fact...nothing more. McCain left Washington before Christmas last year and hasn’t returned. He hasn’t voted in the Senate this year and WON’T BE BACK TO VOTE ON TRUMP’S CIA NOMINEE. He’s irrelevant now and THAT’S A FACT.
I wish Lindsey Grahamnesty would be beaten in an election. I am very disappoint with the SC electorate letting this jackwipe represent them election after election. Very disappoint.
Is anything else disgusting, Linds?
As an American, the too soon jokes are our legacy...
Mr. Thumbs Down deserves whatever snide comments he gets, since he still can’t STFU.
Thanks for explaining why Grahamnesty holds everlasting office. That is very disappointing about those open primaries. Open primaries are an abomination, allowing the enemy a high degree of leverage they should not weild in the other party’s primary. A real scourge.
As a California denizen, I have much more to be apologetic - but we are pretty much hopeless. We’re counting on States, such as South Carolina, to keep the Nation on an even keel.
Someday, ... someday, the communist occupation of the former Great State of California will be over.
Yep, liars all.
I wish South Carolina would appologize for giving us Linda.
Why should the White House apologize?
The only person responsible for apologizing, if one is warranted, is the person who said it. An apology by anyone else is meaningless.
I resent Lindsay Graham and John McCain who are trying to make sure America is not great again. Nobody will be taking back that comment. Not one second from that comment. Not one second. Not one second.
The left NEVER talks out of turn nor chastises their own (without permission by the DNC overlords). If they stray from the Plantation, they are to be destroyed. The only thing this does is make us look weak and divided.
