Meghan McCain Calls Donald Trump a “Barbarian” for Attacking Dead Soldier’s Family

Meghan McCain, daughter of Republican Senator and 2008 Republican presidential candidate, John McCain, is one of those Republicans who have had enough of Donald Trump.

After Donald Trump decided that it was perfectly fine to use his presidential platform to attack the parents of an American soldier who gave his life in service to this country, Meghan took to twitter to express her shock at the Republican presidential candidate, calling him a “barbarian” for going after the “parents of a fallen soldier.”

“I would ask what kind of barbarian would attack the parents of a fallen solider, but oh yeah it’s the same person who attacks POW’s,” McCain wrote on Twitter late Saturday.

Trump has faced backlash from Republicans and Democrats after he lashed out at Khizr Khan, the father of a U.S. soldier killed in Iraq who gave an emotional speech last week at the Democratic National Convention.

Trump said Khan had “no right” to criticize him and questioned whether Khan’s wife, Ghazala Khan, was “allowed” to say anything.

Meghan McCain to Mitt Romney – Save Your Family, Don’t Run in 2016

But will The Mittens listen? I doubt it. Chances are the American people will have yet another chance to tell Romney NO… Again… for the third time!

In a column on the Washington Post, McCain apple about the hurt and pain she suffered as her dad ran and lost in previous presidential contests.

Those of us who’ve been through it multiple times, who’ve watched our parents be rejected by the American public more than once? We make up a weird, lonely island of political misfit toys. I’m on it. So are the Romneys. And when I think about what they might go through again, if their father runs a third time, I shudder.

Don’t get me wrong. I like Mitt Romney. I like his wife and children. But take it from someone who knows – being the direct spawn of a presidential nominee is arduous and excruciatingly public. It’s an experience that will always hold a very special place in my heart, but I wouldn’t put myself or my family through it again for anything in the world. And it’s inconceivable to me that anyone else would either – especially after losing as your party’s most recent nominee.

Meghan McCain – “I got all the Sarah Palin I need for one time” – Video

Speaking about the new Sarah Palin endeavour to take people’s money – the launch of Palin TV – Meghan McCain made it clear that she is not a fan of the Palin.

“When I looked at her site, though, I don’t know how this is different than a blog with video posts. It didn’t look like a video channel,” she said.

Meghan compared what Palin is trying to do, to Glenn Beck and the actual network he began. “Glenn Beck has TheBlaze which is an actual channel you can turn to on television.”

Asked by her co-host Jacob Soboroff if McCain plans to subscribe to Palin’s new channel, which costs $9.95 per month, McCain gave an emphatic no.

“I am not gonna subscribe to Sarah Palin’s $9.95 per month. I got all the Sarah Palin I need for one time.”

Meghan McCain To The Republican Party – Change, Or I’m Leaving You

While her father John McCain continues his fruitless partisan attacks on the Obama administration, Meghan McCain is quietly making news calling for drastic changes in the Republican party especially around social issues. And if the party remains the same boring old party stuck in the ice age, the daughter of the 2008 Republican presidential candidate is threatening to pack all her stuff and leave the party!

She writes:

“… I’ve been calling for the Republican Party to come to terms with reality and modernize. Last Tuesday, Mitt Romney lost—and he lost big. As Republicans, we lost again. I felt sad, exhausted, beaten down, and heartbroken. It was the first time that I considered that the Republican Party, which I love so much, might die.”

“Times are changing. The face of America is changing and we as Republicans stand at a crossroads. Are we going to accept the changing face of America and change with it? Or are we going to continue to become more isolated and irrelevant? It’s possible to maintain the core values of this party and evolve when it comes to social issues. Quite frankly, I don’t see any other path to success.”

“I’ve spent most of my adult life fighting for change from inside the Republican Party… And if we don’t move forward, adapt, and become relevant again, the Republican Party isn’t going to survive. It will just continue to alienate more moderate voters like myself. If I don’t see some changes in the next four years, I’m going to consider registering as an Independent in 2016.”
