Trump: McCain Was ‘Not My Kind of Guy’

President Trump continued his criticism of the late Senator John McCain during a speech at a tank plant in Lima, Ohio, on Wednesday.

When John McCain received a fake and phony dossier — Did you hear about the dossier? It was paid for by crooked Hillary Clinton. Right? And John McCain got it. He got it. And what did he do? Didn’t call me. He turned it over to the F.B.I. hoping to put me in jeopardy. And that’s not the nicest thing to do. You know when those people say — because I’m a very loyal person. He campaigned for years for repeal and replace. So did Rob, so did a lot of senators. When he finally had the chance to do it, he voted against repeal and replace. He voted against at 2 o’clock in the morning. Remember thumbs down. I endorsed him at his request, and I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted, which, as president, I had to approve. I don’t care about this. I didn’t get thank you, that’s O.K. We sent him on the way, but I wasn’t a fan of John McCain. So now what we could say is, now, we’re all set. I don’t think I have to answer that question, but the press keeps, “What do you think of McCain? What do you think?” Not my kind of guy. But some people like him, and I think that’s great.
