Cindy And Meghan McCain Go After Michelle Malkin Over Her ‘Ghost Of John McCain’ Remark

Michelle Malkin delivered a scathing speech at CPAC last week. She dropped some serious truth bombs on immigration and even dropped a line about the “ghost of John McCain.”

“I have been accused of being a ‘grifter’… but it’s the GOP sellouts, not just the radical open borders left, that is in bed with immigration saboteurs. Like the ones who hijacked the tea party movement to shill for amnesty. Those are the real grifters,” Malkin said. “Cashing in and practicing deceit at the expense of their base and the expense of our country.”

“And yes I’m looking at you retired Paul Ryan,” she continued. “And yes I’m looking at you Mitch McConnell. And yes I’m looking at you, Bush family. And yes I’m looking at you, the ghost of John McCain.”

Predictably, she’s facing a ton of backlash over those remarks.

You might not like how she said it, but it doesn’t make it any less true. I’d also like to remind everyone that I was NEVER a fan of John McCain. I felt bad for his family when he passed away, but honestly? I don’t understand why so many people tried to act like he was some sort of incredible man with impeccable moral character. He was petty until the very end. There’s only one reason MSM honored him after his death, and that’s because he loathed Trump. I don’t mean to sound insensitive, but surely his family knows this.

All that aside, I WILL say that I understand why Meghan McCain felt “hurt” by Malkin’s marks. I mean, no matter how much we don’t like him, he’s her dad.

At the same time, we’re talking about the woman who literally took jabs at Trump during her dad’s funeral and pledged to have a beef with the Trumps indefinitely so…yeah. There’s a lot at play.

I don’t know.

ALL THAT BEING SAID. There’s some ruckus on Twitter.

Where do you fall on all of this?
