Donald Trump was pointedly not invited to attend John McCain’s funeral service, and his allies are furious that those who did attend took the time to get a few licks in at the president during their remarks for the late senator, a man Trump never liked and who blocked the president at every turn. Most scathing was Meghan McCain’s statement in her emotional eulogy for her father, that, “The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again because America was always great.” This, according to Politico’s sources, was the last straw for those within the White House.

While his allies were hoping for some cutting remark from the president as he tweeted through the day on Saturday, none was forthcoming until that evening, when Trump simply posted his campaign slogan, “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

If he wasn’t going to do it himself, some of Trump’s people decided to defend the president themselves. “.@realDonaldTrump ran for @POTUS ONE time and WON!” crowed Trump campaign advisor Katrina Pierson, referencing McCain’s two failed attempts at a presidential bid. “Some people will never recover from that.”

Trump received criticism from both sides as he remained silent after McCain’s family announced the senator would be suspending medical treatment for his cancer, merely tweeting out his condolences to the family after McCain’s death as other Republicans and Democrats took the time to honor the late senator himself. Trump also received harsh blowback for quietly raising the White House’s flag back to full staff at midnight two days after McCain’s death. Overall, his comportment was in stark contrast to the funeral itself, which was, in some ways, a return to old Washington civility between both political parties.

Meanwhile, Trumpworld was mixed over Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump’s presence at the event. Some applauded the couple for attending as a nice gesture, while others were angry that they didn’t refuse their invitation in solidarity with the president. Still others were fine with them attending, but mad that they weren’t given better seats.

“It was a very nice gesture by Jared and Ivanka to attend,” said former Trump campaign advisor Sam Nunberg. “I find it contemptible that the McCain family couldn’t seat them in a better, more respectable section.”
