Palin not invited to McCains funeral

Along with T-rump, we can add GOP nimrod Sarah Palin to the “ uninvited list” for Senator McCains funeral. Sources confirmed she’s on the “ not welcome” list.

This past May, McCain revealed he didn’t want Palin as his running mate in 2008, but the GOP coerced him to do it, according to his memoir. Palin said she felt like she was kicked in the gut when she heard that. Still, she considered him “ a friend”.

A great article on why Palin was not invited - a subtle signal from McCain that he played a role in "Trumpism" ?

Neither were Maverick's prez campaign manager, senior adviser, and longtime strategist.

Yes, but none of them were of high importance/recognition as his 'running mate'.

Another kick in the gut for Palin. More to come, I'm sure.

Big mistake by the GOP!

The poor stunt to put her on the ticket to attract female voters back-fired completely. If McCain had gotten his way and went with Lieberman (smart choice), he may have been the 44th President. And daughter Meghan McCain most likely wouldn't be so bitter today.
