Senator McCain’s final act was to not invite his running mate, Sarah Palin, to his funeral. What a classless move. She energised his White House run and increased interest in the plodding, low-energy affair he called a campaign. Without her, he would not have done as well and he should have been grateful. Unlike Trump, the media left her bruised and battered and he should have stood up for her but he didn’t. Fuck that guy.
