Reporter, The FixPresident Trump’s main antagonist in the Republican Party has died, and there is no pining by Trump. The Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey reports that Trump nixed releasing an official White House statement honoring Sen. John McCain after the Arizona senator died Saturday. My deepest sympathies and respect go out to the family of Senator John McCain. In the last year of his life, McCain willingly molded himself as the keeper of the flame of what he believed was the true Republican Party. Whether the Republican Party sans McCain listens to his warnings about Trumpism is another question entirely.
