“The View” co-host Meghan McCain charged Thursday that the Trump administration seems incapable of apologizing, after having attacked her father, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., several times.
McCain pointed out how his administration never apologized to her family, during a discussion about President Trump demanding an apology from Disney CEO Bob Iger after the network made the decision to apologize for Roseanne Barr’s racist tweet this week.
“I don’t like talking about my dad all the time, but he keeps being brought up,” McCain said, citing recent examples of the Trump administration attacking her father.
“Obviously I was promised an apology, Kelly Sadler, publicly to my family. I did not receive that,” McCain said Thursday. “This is not an administration that’s capable of apologizing.”

Her remarks came just days after Trump the crowd at his Nashville rally booed the GOP senator, who is currently battling brain cancer, for his recent vote on Obamacare. A few weeks prior, White House adviser Kelly Sadler also took a jab at McCain by suggesting that he’s irrelevant because he’s dying.
The younger McCain noted there has been bad blood between her father and the Trump team since the campaign. Now she’s calling on the administration to step up and set an example by offering an apology.
McCain praised ABC for their decision to boot “Roseanne” on Wednesday, claiming that the company “holds a higher standard” than the White House does.
