The modern GOP is NOT, and has never been, the party of Lincoln. The LABEL might be the same, but since the political shift around the Civil Rights act, they have NOT been the party of Lincoln. That line is utter crap, and it ticks me off every time I hear it.
ReplyMrs. McCain doesn’t like the party her GOP created. Sold your soul for votes and invited the racist mentally disturbed to the GOP. You made your bed.
ReplyNewt Gin-Grinch was the Trump of 1992. No different, just a different position. The GOP has been broken for decades.
ReplyHave Republicans lost their way or just lost their cloak of decency?
ReplyThe GOP was ‘far astray’ long before Trump arrived. They stonewalled Obama for 8 years.
ReplyThey have had a policy of ‘no co-operation’ for a long time. Where were these ‘righteous’ Republicans then?
The GOP was never the party of inclusion or decency or debate, sorry, no. Not in my lifetime. That said, Cindy McCain is a great woman and wonderful interview.
ReplyShe has a wonderful laugh!
ReplyThe country can once again expect some elegance and class after being deprived of it for four years.
ReplyJohn was disappointed with the gop before he died. I wready to vote for John but gop gave him a crazy lady as VICE president turned me away.
ReplyTransaltion: we used to be sleek and sly with our opression, hate and racism. Now everyone knows we’re pieces of shit and i dont like it
ReplyThe Republican party has lost it’s way. Gone are the good ole days when doing the bidding of their corporate overlords was enough.
ReplyI miss John McCain. <3
ReplyI think the Republican party has been content with dirty and dangerous for some time. 45 just took thongs further.
ReplyThe McCains are legit good people. John was a Naval Aviator and POW. All the respect.
ReplyAll the Republican party has done in the last 20 years is start the war in Iraq on a lie and give billionaires a 2 trillion dollar tax cut
ReplyCan you imagine what John McCain would have said about 1/6?
ReplyRe painkillers: Yes to stopping after or before taking 1, cuz way too often people feel they can afford freedom of movement the pain was constraining, transgressing those natural boundaries so making the problem worse. That in itself calls for more painkilling. There must be a better way
ReplyThe Democrats have also lost their way. They are beholden to the radical left. Socialists like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar dominate them. Soon, the USA will be under a socialist regime passing the cost onto hard-working middle class taxpayers. Omar fled Somalia because she didn’t want to make her homeland better. Instead she gets refugee status, elected to Congress and wants to change the USA to suit her. Why didn’t she try to do that in Somalia? People like Andrew Cuomo getting paid 5.1 million to write a book about the pandemic while NYers suffered. And Democrats believe that murdering a viable unborn child is a right. The Democrats are no better. The party of pandering and lawlessness.
Replysane , honest, and decent conservatives exist .the republican party has become unrecognizable ,the libertarian party has disappeared. the democrats are having a liberal frenzy . is there no hope for the moderate conservative ?
Replywow thats great! drift racing after a stroke! impressive
ReplyLovely lady.
ReplyCindy, Cindy, Cindy I think Mr. McCain, your brave and patriotic husband would be so proud of you. And matter of fact he is proud of you.
ReplyMcCain chose Sarah Palin as his running mate. He was lightyears ahead of his peers in giving legitimacy to idiots in the GOP.
ReplyRestored a little of my faith in humanity, there.
ReplyLmao “Go home, take these and have a drink”
ReplyMaybe if you’re a RICH woman they say/do that, but not if you’re broke…
John McCain was a different kind of evil, a true Republican
ReplyOh, she’s fun… I like her….and it figures. I never cared much for John McCain’s politics but I couldn’t help admiring the man.
ReplyCome on! The Republican Party lost its way while Cindy McCain was still a _teenager._ The Republican Party lost its way when they adopted their “Southern strategy” of deliberately wooing white racists (for political advantage, of course; Republicans care about nothing other than that) _a half-century ago._
And that worked so well that they’ve used it ever since. The core value of the Republican Party is either racism or just… being willing to do anything – _anything_ – for political advantage. Take your pick.
So these Republicans whining about Trump _now_ are a bit late, don’t you think? Where have they been for the past 50 years? They _built_ this Republican Party. The modern GOP is this crazy because this is the result of deliberately wooing white racists for 50 years. Yeah, it turns out that racists – and religious nuts – have _other_ bad qualities, too! Surprise, surprise, huh?
I’m just a few years older than McCain, so I know she’s aware of this. I’m just not so sure she _cares._
ReplyWhat a delightful woman !
ReplyI miss John McCain so much.
Replywhat a cool lady! You go Cindy McCain!!
ReplyShe *seems* nice but she also sounds completely misinformed and uninformed about the actual history of ‘her party’.
ReplyI can’t tell if she’s being purposefully ignorant and obtuse about the truth of the GOP or if she’s just that naive and gullible about the GOP. Intentionally stupid or does she never take the rose-coloured sunglasses off?
I can’t tell.
Conservatives will never have a way forward.
ReplyThe straight beauty physiologically analyse because beetle only nail apropos a jumpy texture. stupendous, flashy column
ReplyI mean no disrespect at all, but the Republican Party hasn’t been the party of Lincoln in many, many decades. Republicans back during Lincoln share little resemblance to 20th and 21st C Republicans.
ReplyWhat a great interview!!
ReplyWhat a great interview with wonderful lady. It proves again that it is possible to have a great time together and have a great conversation, even if you do not agree on political subject. You just need to respect each other and have absense of humor.
ReplyIt’s funny that they’re the “Party of Lincoln” yet they’re supporting a big lie.
ReplyNice interview!
ReplyCindy you are a beautiful person and your husband would be so proud . I hope you are asked to be in the Biden administration you would be such an asset . stay safe and thank you
Replywhat a crock of crap.
ReplyCindy and Stevie look alike.
ReplySTEPHEN, THANKS SO MUCH FOR HELPING TO REBRAND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. THE GOP THANKS YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. JOHN MCAIN ALSO FAVORED THE IRAQ WAR BUT THEN LATER SAID IT WAS A MISTAKE. NO HARM NO FOUL I GUESS.
ReplyI thought I was going to be very disappointed with this interview. That was delightful. I can’t believe I am a Cindy McCain fan now.
ReplyBiden loses his way every day.
ReplyThe Republican Party has gone from the party of Freedom of choice and Individual Liberty to the party of “MY way or the HIGHWAY!”
ReplyShe seems like a genuine person. As someone who used to be addicted to opioids, I appreciate her being so candid about her addiction. It can very easily happen to anyone
ReplyCindy McCain is such a class act. She is a true conservative with morals.
