McCain comes out swinging against Trump administration
By Eliza Collins USA TODAY
WASHINGTON — John McCain is making it very clear that he isn’t just going to go along with everything President Trump proposes, despite the fact they are both Republicans.
The Arizona senator just won a six-year term so he isn’t concerned about being re-elected. And just a few days into the new administration, he’s showing that he has no problem speaking out against the president.
“Look, there's no evidence of that and I think that those who allege that have to come up with some substantiation of the claim,” McCain said Wednesday on MSNBC’s Morning Joe about Trump’s claim that millions have people voted illegally and cost him the popular vote in the election.
Trump announced there would be “a major investigation into VOTER FRAUD” on Wednesday. The investigation will be to look into his unsubstantiated claim that he lost the popular vote because of millions of illegal votes.
“Listen, I won by 14 points. I'm absolutely sure that there was not a single illegal vote in that election in Arizona,” McCain said about his re-election to the Senate in November.
