A White House official derisively dismissed John McCain’s opposition to President Trump’s CIA nominee in a closed-door staff meeting Thursday by saying that the Arizona senator battling brain cancer is “dying anyway,” according to another White House official with knowledge of the comment.
Kelly Sadler, a special assistant in the communications office who helps manage talking points for Trump allies, made the comment about McCain during a discussion among the White House communications staffers about Gina Haspel’s nomination for CIA director, which the Arizona Republican announced Wednesday that he opposed.
“It doesn’t matter, he’s dying anyway,” Sadler said, according to the official with knowledge of the comment, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because remarks made during internal meetings are intended to remain confidential.
Sadler’s comment was first reported by The Hill and confirmed by The Washington Post.

Because I really want to know! 
Will somehow spin this into just how coarse our society has become, and say that Dems are just as responsible as thuglicans for it 
Isn't the woman who said this about her father a thuglican?
Meghan uses her head as a a giant hat rack.
Nor anyone in her family
It was a meeting with Congressional aids and staffers, for the purpose of getting on the same page and coming up with the same talking points on a number of issues. It was not some top-secret, hush-hush kind of meeting.
IMHO, If I had been in the meeting, I would have gotten up the instant she said that, put my chair upside down on the table and walked out. 
Spanky hires only the best people.
