President Donald Trump once again did not hold back his feelings about the late Senator John McCain, blasting the warmonger for his role in the Christopher Steele dossier, destroying the attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare — and not getting a “thank you” for signing off on his elaborate funerals.
Speaking at the Lima Army Tank Plant in Ohio, Trump again asserted, “I have to be honest, I’ve never liked him much. Hasn’t been for me. I’ve really probably, never will.”

The president also took a swipe at the McCain family, saying, “I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted—which as president I had to approve. I don’t care about this. I didn’t get a thank you. That’s okay.”

The president also criticized McCain on Tuesday, pointing specifically to his vote against a repeal of Obamacare.
“I’m very unhappy that he didn’t repeal and replace Obamacare, as you know. He campaigned on repealing and replacing Obamacare for years and then they got to a vote and he said thumbs down,” Trump said.
