GOP strategist: McCain's funeral a reflection of what Americans are thinking of Trump
Republican strategist Liz Copeland said on Tuesday that the late Sen. John McCain's (R-Ariz.) funeral in Washington, D.C. was a reflection of what Americans are thinking of President Trump.
"At the end of the day, the funeral was reflective of what everyone was thinking," Copeland, who a former Democrat and the president and founder of Urban Conservative Project, Inc., told Hill.TV's Krystal Ball and Buck Sexton, on "Rising."
"I think that when people spoke up, and they spoke out, they were saying that 'you told us President Trump that during the campaign you would be presidential. Now is the time for you to do it.' He didn't do it. It was the appropriate time to call him out," she continued.
Copeland has publicly criticized the president in the past.
Trump slammed McCain, who is a former POW, after announcing his presidential campaign in 2015, saying the six-term senator and former GOP presidential nominee was not a war hero because he was captured during the Vietnam War.
