President Donald Trump, already facing widespread rebuke for his attack on Sen. John McCain, stepped up his criticism in a speech on Wednesday in Ohio, at one point, sounding annoyed, 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.”
“We sent him on the way, Trump continued, “But I wasn’t a fan of John McCain.”
In the speech at a tank plant in Lima, Ohio, Trump claimed that McCain hadn’t properly advocated for veterans –“he didn’t get the job done” — and said veterans were “on his side.”
And he once again angrily recounted how he felt betrayed when McCain voted against repealing Obamacare.
