Minnesota senator and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar is not apologizing for invoking the late-Sen. John McCain in an attack aimed at President Trump despite the wishes of his daughter, Meghan McCain. The feud began on Saturday during a campaign event in Des Moines, Iowa, where Klobuchar echoed her late colleague's remarks he told her during Trump's inauguration. “I sat on that stage between Bernie [Sanders] and John McCain, and John McCain kept reciting to me names of dictators during that speech because he knew more than any of us what we were facing as a nation,” Klobuchar told the crowd.
