Late Republican senator John McCain passed away in August 2018 and was a veteran of the Vietnam War.
Mr McCain arranged his own funeral before he died and invited former presidents including Barack Obama, who beat him in the 2008 election, but not Mr Trump, who just signed off the arrangements.Mr Trump also repeated his complaint that Mr McCain voted against repealing Obamacare and that he was not supportive of military veterans.
He went on to say that Mr McCain sent the dossier to the FBI and the media before the 2016 election, in an effort to discredit his candidacy.But now it would seem that Republicans are tired of the president's constant bashing of John McCain. Georgian Senator Johnny Isakson called Mr Trump's comments"deplorable", and that he does not care"if he's the president of the United States, owns all the real estate in New York or is building the greatest immigration system in the world".
