Meghan McCain says Republicans are acting 'deeply cowardly' for staying silent after Donald Trump's inflammatory tweets on the weekend.
co-host Meghan McCain has slammed Republicans, specifically Senator Lindsey Graham, for their"cowardly" silence after Donald Trump's inflammatory tweets telling House Democrats to"go back" to their countries.
"Stick to the politics," McCain said when discussing the president's controversial comments."The problem is you're making this about race, you're making this about racism, you're making this about what is 'truly American' and it's all these old, racist dog whistles that have plagued this country for so long."
While the president did not use specific names, he appeared to be referring to freshman lawmakers Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Three of the four women were born in the U.S., while Omar was born in Somalia and immigrated to America when she was a child. "The cowardice I am seeing of Republicans not speaking out and saying it today is embarrassing," McCain said on Monday. She later added that Senator Lindsey Graham, a close colleague and friend to her late father Senator John McCain, is"not the person I used to know."
