When discussing Trump's efforts to overturn the Affordable Care Act while he was president, Harris invoked 'the late, great John McCain,' praising him for voting as a Republican against the GOP efforts to eliminate Obamacare.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Former President Barack Obama on Friday contrasted former President Donald Trump’s character to that of the late Sen. John McCain during a packed rally at the University of Arizona. Obama, who faced off against McCain in his successful bid for the White House in 2008, offered only kind words for his onetime political foe during his Friday remarks on behalf of the Harris-Walz campaign.
“When Donald Trump lies or cheats or bullies or shows utter disregard for our Constitution when he calls service members like John McCain losers because they died in battle or were captured … people make excuses for it, that it’s okay so long as their side wins,” said Obama. McCain was taken as a prisoner of war during the Vietnam conflict and tortured. McCains’ service earned him two Purple Hearts, along with more than a dozen other military accolades.
