    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Jennifer Griffin

    John McCain was a legitimate American war hero. He was also a guy lots of people had good reasons for disliking as a politician. He was not immune to criticism, but Obama & Biden's treatment of him was shameful, & Trump's was much worse.https://twitter.com/JenGriffinFNC/status/1301975330048167936 …

    Dan McLaughlin added,

    Jennifer GriffinVerified account @JenGriffinFNC
    Regarding McCain, "The President just hated John McCain. He always asked, 'Why do you see him as a hero?" Two sources confirmed the President did not want flags lowered but others in the White House ordered them at half mast. There was a stand off and then the President relented.

        Not a reason to disparage his military record.

        What did Obama and Biden do to McCain besides run against him and attack him in that context just as he attacked them (And McCain was unusually honorable in one memorable moment)? Moreover, McCain chose to have each of them speak at different parts of memorial services.

        Mock him for being unable to use email due to his war injuries. Lie in radio ads claiming he hated immigrants.

        The Mozart of whataboutism has logged on. Spoiler alert, the third movement ends with a regretful Trump vote.

        One could argue W treated him the worst. At least during the 2000 primary.

        Gross dude. So gross. Saying McCain was a "loser" because he was a POW is not a policy "criticism." Nor is it an expression of dislike for him "as a politician." You and others are trying to rewrite history. Trump mocked McCain for being a POW. That's what this is about.

        Literally no one has said he should be immune from criticism. People just don’t like it when #Trump disparaged his military service. Big difference- conflating the two is intellectually dishonest.
