After being read for filth by Steve Schmidt over the weekend, Meghan McCain–who is John McCain’s daughter, in case anyone forgot–broke her silence by giving a random shout out to her gay best friend of Twitter late last night.

At 9:53 p.m., McCain retweeted a photo of celebrity hairstylist Josh Rupley, along with the caption: “14 years!!!!!!! Met as babies on the campaign trail. I love you. Ride or die @josh_rupley”.

The “campaign trail” McCain appears to be referring to, of course, is her father’s 2008 presidential campaign, which Schmidt managed.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
In his Twitter takedown of McCain, Schmidt accused the former The View co-host of being a “spoiled rotten, entitled bully” and “fourth generation wannabe” who is wholly “unaccomplished” in life.

“Everyone who has ever worked with Meghan McCain from ABC, The View, Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg and a thousand others have seen the unfiltered version of what the whole of America has seen,” he wrote, recalling the time he had her kicked off the campaign’s plane in 2008 “because of her outrageous behavior.”
“I was the first adult that Meghan McCain ever encountered that she heard the word NO from,” he continued in a new thread. “I told her she was unimportant and that the Presidential election wasn’t about her.”
From there, Schmit detailed how McCain’s own father “was appalled” by her behavior on the campaign trail. He also accused her of throwing “tantrums” that “were beyond anything I have ever witnessed from any other human being.”

“Raging, screaming, crying, at the staff, at the makeup people at Secret Service,” he wrote.
Schmidt’s takedown of McCain, who he accused of “14 years of abuse and attacks,” came after she liked a tweet calling him a pedophile. He has received high praise from both Democrats and Republicans alike for speaking out against her nonstop bullying.
Now, the responses to McCain’s gay best friend tweet…

You should title the pics w/friends “another person to never tell me no”

Just goes to show not all gays have good taste. No better than log cabin gays. Voting against their own communities rights. We good. You can have him.

Watch your back. Meghan turns on her friends. Just saying.

McCain tried a lie like this before. She used a bunch of phony outrage to attack Kathy Griffin who announced she was sick, saying that she had mistreated her best friend, practically “her brother”, Clay Aiken, and she owed him an apology.
In response Aiken tweeted out well wishes to Kathy Griffin with a picture of Kathy and him hugging each other. Nothing to Meghan.

I would be very interested in her gay best friend explaining how he tolerates her support and marriage to her gay bashing, homophobic husband who has literally written articles for right wing extremist publications attacking the LGBT community and his continued belief that marriage should only be between one man and one woman.
Lets also not forget her homophobic father who fought harder than anyone else in congress against the repeal of DADT and the passage of marriage equality.
We won’t even begin to go into the fact her dad was the man responsible for unleashing Sarah Palin on the country.

instead of meghan she should switch to “244”. not even republicans are buying her boring book. whats the scaly mail have to say about that?
marshal phillips
Tots and Pears to Meghan.

I’m completely puzzled by Rupley’s tweet of that photo. All his Tweets are VERY gay and liberal, and many slam Republicans, e.g. he tweeted a Happy Friday to all crossdressers, “except that little shit, Madison Cawthorb.” (I’m paraphrasing)

I’m wondering who the 244 people are who paid over $20 for a book written by a woman who has done nothing of importance in her life. And that photo with her innocent baby at her father’s grave is bad enough but she put her loser book there to be photographed. Tacky AF.
P.S.: The good thing about the book (non)sells is that maybe the media will realize that no one wants to hear or see her and she will not be able to be a job in the future.

She is interesting on the level of Herschel Walker’s son. Much more interesting at a distance than to have to actually be around them.
dbmcvey
She used Clay Aiken as a prop before he bolted and now she’s using Josh Rupley. she doesn’t surprise.
