CNN's Dana Bash: Trump loss in Arizona would be 'John McCain's last laugh'
https://thehill.com/homenews/media/524584-cnns-dana-bash-trump-loss-in-arizona-would-be-john-mccains-last-laughCNN's Dana Bash said President Trump's possible loss in Arizona would be "John McCain's last laugh," with the network's chief political correspondent saying the outcome would be poetic, given the president's criticism of the late Republican senator.
"Ultimately, John McCain’s widow, Cindy McCain, beloved and respected in Arizona, endorsed [Democratic presidential nominee Joe] Biden," noted anchor Jake Tapper on Wednesday. "There are many people in the White House right now tearing their hair watching Arizona returns right now saying: ‘I told you not to do that!’”
“You read my mind,” Bash concurred. “I was sitting here thinking [about] Arizona and thinking [about] John McCain and Cindy McCain. And now [former Republican Arizona Sen.] Jeff Flake endorsed Joe Biden, but much more of the McCain legacy."
"I am sure you are talking to people who are close to John McCain, that it is John McCain’s last laugh, if, in fact, his state, his beloved adopted state goes for Joe Biden, his old friend who spoken at his funeral, eulogized him," she concluded. “Can you imagine the poetry of that if it happens?”
