McCain has spent the past few days retweeting defenses of her husband after President Donald Trump attacked him in a tweet Sunday. Trump accused John McCain of distributing a salacious dossier that claimed the Russians had compromising information on Trump. The president said Tuesday, "I was never a fan of John McCain, and I never will be."
The president's statements drew condemnation from those within his own party, including Sens. Mitt Romney of Utah and Johnny Isakson of Georgia. Meghan McCain said on "The View" that Trump "spends his weekend obsessing over great men because – he knows it, and I know it, and all of you know it – he will never be a great man."
