"Remember when every maga personality screamed at the top of their lungs that anyone with the last name McCain was a blood thirsty neocon warmonger who would bomb Iran and had no place in the Republican Party? Yea I didn't forget that either."
"John McCain famously sang, Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran, to the tune of the Beach Boys' hit Barbara Ann in a jovial response to a supporter on the campaign trail in 2007 as he ran for president against then-Senator Barack Obama."
"But with the rise of Trump and the MAGA movement came the America First agenda, with emphasis on border security, trade, and energy at home not on foreign wars and regime change abroad."
Meghan McCain defended her father John McCain's longstanding opposition to a nuclear-armed Iran and support for military intervention, responding to MAGA critics who previously condemned the McCain family as neoconservative warmongers. Following U.S. and Israeli strikes against Iran, McCain highlighted the hypocrisy of those who attacked her father's foreign policy positions while now endorsing comparable military actions. John McCain had famously joked about bombing Iran during his 2007 presidential campaign. The rise of Trump and the MAGA movement shifted Republican priorities toward domestic concerns like border security and trade rather than foreign interventions. McCain and Trump maintained a contentious relationship, with Trump questioning McCain's war hero status. McCain died in 2018 and requested Trump's absence from his funeral.
