John McCain’s son decries Trump appearance at Arlington as a ‘violation’ that turned cemetery into campaign backdrop
CNN — When Trump held a campaign event at Arlington National Cemetery last week, 1st Lt. Jimmy McCain says he viewed it as a “violation.”
The youngest son of the late Sen. John McCain had already been moving away from the Republican Party — just weeks ago, he changed his voter registration to Democrat and plans to vote for Kamala Harris in November!
*NOTE: Jimmy McCain will be interviewed on “The Lead with Jake Tapper” at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday.
“It just blows me away,” McCain, who has served in the military for 17 years, told CNN.
“These men and women that are laying in the ground there have no choice” of whether to be a backdrop for a political campaign, he said.

¡°I just think that for anyone who¡¯s done a lot of time in their uniform, they just understand that inherently ¡ª that it¡¯s not about YOU there. It¡¯s about these people who gave the ultimate sacrifice in the name of our country.¡±
McCain¡¯s decision to speak out now is part of his broader shift away from the Republican Party and his family¡¯s famously conservative roots.

“These men and women that are laying in the ground there have no choice” of whether to be a backdrop for a political campaign, he said.
“I just think that for anyone who’s done a lot of time in their uniform, they just understand that inherently — that it’s not about YOU there. It’s about these people who gave the ultimate sacrifice in the name of our country.” McCain’s decision to speak out now is part of his broader shift away from the Republican Party and his family’s famously conservative roots. He registered as a Democrat several weeks ago and plans to vote for Kamala Harris in November, adding that he “would get involved in any way I could” to help her campaign.
It’s a significant move for the son of a former GOP presidential candidate and Arizona senator.
Other members of the McCain family have distanced themselves from Trump — including Jimmy McCain’s mother Cindy, who endorsed then-candidate Joe Biden in 2020, and his sister Meghan.

Dick Cheney put out a statement Friday confirming his endorsement, which read almost entirely as opposition to Trump rather than support of Harris.
"In our nation¡¯s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump," Dick Cheney said in a statement.
"He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him! He can never be trusted with power again!"
¡°As citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our Constitution. That is why I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris.¡±

Either Taylor Swift or Brittany Mahomes, people are free to back and endorse a political candidate in a democratic society. However, people can not do as such under an autocratic regime. Trump as “a danger to our national security and our democracy.” , it's cited in the article of the Hill from ten former US military officials.

She is not her color . She is not her sex . She is a person . Give the person that accomplishes something their due credit without having to imply that somehow the adjectives that you use to describe them makes their effort more amazing . What ? because she¡¯s black it¡¯s impossible to believe or something ? That she won the debate ? My sisters in this country are given the least amount of power or respect in regards to anyone living . Not cool . It¡¯s because of things like you just stated or implied .
