    They despised each other, Trump would never have gone anyway.

    He was elected President to drain the swamp, not eulogize it.

    1...why would Trump despise McCain?...ahh, ok...because McCain was a "captured POW" and therefore according to Trump was not a hero?

    2...Instead of draining the swamp, Trump has added to it.

    And this is the problem with this thread. It's a complete whitewash of history.

    jjj

    Ok, I'll chime in some.
    If two people don't have respect for one another, imo, it would be disrespectful to say things that they don't feel.
    Id rather a person in leadership simply convey condolences and sorrow to the family, rather than blow hot air.
    It's ok if the deceased and/or family doesn't want or expect, the other to attend any services.
    Neither is right or wrong, they are feelings! and feelings are not right or wrong!
