Trump once again bashes the late Sen. John McCain over health-care vote
Sen. John McCain voted against Republicans' repeal of the Affordable Care Act in 2017. By Colby Itkowitz Colby Itkowitz Congress, campaigns, health policy, Pennsylvania politics Email Bio Follow March 16 at 7:29 PM President Trump can’t let his grudge against the late senator John McCain go.
Trump piled on in his tweet on Saturday, adding: “He had far worse ‘stains’ than this, including thumbs down on repeal and replace after years of campaigning to repeal and replace!” McCain had already learned that he had terminal cancer. His vote to save the ACA was viewed as a defining moment in his career as a lawmaker. It also earned him the ire of Trump, which hasn’t waned even since McCain’s death in August. Trump brought up McCain’s thumbs-down vote often during campaign rallies throughout the late senator’s illness, eliciting boos from Trump supporters.
