On Friday, after blaming conservatives like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) for the Obama administration's mishandling of military death benefits, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said Cruz simply did not represent the GOP.
Fox News host Martha MacCallum mentioned that Cruz would be visiting President Barack Obama along with other Republican senators like Rand Paul (R-KY), Mike Lee (R-UT), and Marco Rubio (R-FL) at the White House on Friday.
She asked McCain, "How do you feel about him representing you there?"
In response, McCain smirked before saying, "First of of all, Martha, please, he's not representing us there."
Also in the interview, McCain said conservatives were as much to blame for the problem regarding the military death benefits as Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel.

McStain doesn’t represent me. Though I thank him for his heroic service to the country, as a politician he exemplifies the WORST of the statist DC culture.
I wish that he would STFU and retire.
He’s representing me!
Dear Mr. McCain,
One of the worst decisions we ever made was to cast our votes for you for President.
Of course like most true conservatives we did so not because of what you stand for, but for what Sarah Palin stands for.
You said yesterday that Ted Cruz " does not represent US."
Well you are WRONG.
YOU DO NOT represent US TRUE REPUBLICANS.
.. and truth be told the party is dying and will no doubt be given a burial after this next election cycle.
IF the REPUBLICAN PARTY revives, it will be IN SPITE of you.. not because of you.
Please leave the party and join arms with your true identity... the Democrats!
McCain isn’t fit to shine the shoes of the guy who shines the shoes of Ted Cruz.
You are correct!
Shut up Juan.
They always get the last letter of his state wrong. It should be Sen. John McCain (R-AQ).
Didn’t Lodge speak out against Nixon? I am unsure. We know Agnew grew to loathe him.
Anyone still think the GOP establishment wants to win?
Cruz represents me and I live the Gulag formerly known as California, the Abortion, Gay everything, Gun Grabber, Illegal Alien, Welfare State.
'Us'? You got a mouse in yer pocket, there, Johnny boy?
Cruz is my Senator, thankyouverymuch, and he DOES represent me.

McCain can stuff it. He's just an undocumented Democrat.
The Media is salivating while waiting for her to go after McCain so they can add “backstabber” to their version of her Resume.
She doesn't need to bite. The people like us that support her know what she is thinking.
Then again, I would personally love to hear her go after McCain. It's what happens after the fact that would turn into a Public Crucifixion of her in the Press.
Dude, that’s a bit harsh. Let him enjoy his elder days frolicking in the splendor of Obama’s National Parks, or something.
Yes you may be right.
Our media sucks.
I think John McCain is going to start using the imperial “We” soon. As in “We are not amused”.
Properly, the response to McCain should then be “Y’all are full of s***!”
It is no wonder that McCain doesn’t like Cruz, after all, unlike McCain, Cruz is a patriot.

By going back on his promise to defend the Constitution and support the values of conservatives who helped elect him, mccain has dishonored his name, his service to his country and his oath. He is not a man of honor or integrity. It’s sad ... but it’s true.
I completely agree. I also think the man is mentally ill and has been for decades.
