President Donald Trump's allies are roaring about the treatment of the president and his family at John McCain's funeral service, including complaining Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump were seated too far in the back of the Washington National Cathedral.

Trump's friends are fuming after the tributes to the late senator contained some pointed criticism and unfavorable comparison to the president.

There is also anger at the fact Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump were at the service - and where they sat in the huge Washington National Cathedral, which can seat about 4,000 people.

'It was a very nice gesture by Jared and Ivanka to attend,' Trump campaign adviser Sam Nunberg told Politico. 'I find it contemptible that the McCain family couldn't seat them in a better, more respectable section.'

The president's daughter and son-in-law entered the cathedral on Saturday morning shortly before McCain's funeral service began.

Ivanka Trump was spotting hugging Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, McCain's best friend in the Senate who invited the couple to the service.

Graham cleared the invite with Cindy McCain, The New York Times reported. He invited Ivanka Trump after she offered him her condolences during a meeting on Capitol Hill last week.

But Graham, speaking on CNN's 'State of the Union' on Sunday, denied he was the source of the invite.

'No. Nobody was at the funeral who did not get invited by the family,' the Republican senator from South Carolina said.

He said it was Ivanka Trump's kind words on McCain that got the family's attention.

'Earlier in the week, I met with Ivanka about a trip we're planning in Africa. Ivanka said some very nice things about Sen. McCain after his passing. It was not unnoticed by the family,' he said. 'I'm hoping that Cindy, who has done terrific work for human trafficking of women and all things related to that issue, can work with Ivanka and others because that's her life's work.'

Former Sen. Joe Lieberman, who gave a eulogy at McCain's funeral, said neither member of the couple complained of any veiled shots at the president.

'They felt that the whole service was a great tribute to [McCain] and elevating,' Lieberman said. 'Hopefully everybody is elevated by what happened there in the cathedral yesterday and the whole week, and will take some of this forward with us and make the country better.'

But other Trump allies were upset Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner were at the service all given the slams against the president.

One person told Politico their attendance a 'huge mistake.'

The couple was seated in the cavernous cathedral to hear Meghan McCain take a few pointed shots at President Trump during her eulogy on her father.

'The America of John McCain is generous and welcoming and bold,' Meghan McCain said. 'She is resourceful and confident and secure. She meets her responsibilities, She speaks quietly because she is strong. America does not boast because she has no need to. The America of John McCain has no need to be great again because America was always great.'
