Meghan McCain isn’t holding back on Kamala Harris, telling the VP to stop mentioning her father, the late Senator John McCain, or she’ll start revealing what he really thought of Harris. After Harris shared a warm story about Senator McCain praising her at a recent Arizona rally, Meghan shot back on social media, calling out what she sees as an opportunistic use of her father’s legacy.
“I know Democrats want to reinvent history and turn my Dad into whatever you guys need,” Meghan posted on X. “But please don’t make me start sharing what I remember him ACTUALLY saying about Kamala Harris. Consider this my final warning shot—I will start spilling tea.”
Harris’s story, where she claims McCain once told her, “You’re going to make a great senator,” has stirred up emotions in Arizona, a key battleground state. Adding fuel to the family feud, John McCain’s son, Jimmy, recently announced his support for Harris, even switching his party registration to Democrat. Jimmy, a military veteran, framed his support for Harris and running mate Tim Walz as a move toward a “better future,” contrasting sharply with his sister’s views.
Cindy McCain, the McCain family matriarch, backed Joe Biden in 2020, aligning herself with Democrats despite the McCain family’s Republican legacy. With early voting already underway in Arizona, Meghan McCain’s latest social media bombshell hints that Harris may have to tread carefully when it comes to invoking John McCain’s memory.
