Trump Knocks Cindy McCain Off High Horse Over Biden Endorsement: “Cindy can have Sleepy Joe”
President Trump hit back at Cindy McCain after the widow of the late Republican Sen. John McCain publicly backed Joe Biden.
Political endorsements are quite useless unless you have a strong base of support and I am not sure who supports or even follows Cindy McCain.
Trump said, “I hardly know Cindy McCain other than having put her on a Committee at her husband’s request.”
Trump added: “Joe Biden was John McCain’s lapdog. So many BAD decisions on Endless Wars & the V.A., which I brought from a horror show to HIGH APPROVAL. Never a fan of John. Cindy can have Sleepy Joe!”

Cindy McCain announced her endorsement of the Democratic presidential nominee Tuesday night, indicating that Biden’s values outweighed the political differences between them.
“My husband John lived by a code: country first,” she said. “We are Republicans, yes, but Americans foremost. There’s only one candidate in this race who stands up for our values as a nation, and that is @JoeBiden,” she tweeted.
McCain’s wife had already praised Biden in a video at the Democratic National Convention in which she discussed the friendship between her husband and the former vice president, but did not formally endorse him then.
Biden responded to her endorsement, “I’m deeply honored to have your support and your friendship. This election is bigger than any one political party. It requires all of us to come together as one America to restore the soul of the nation. Together, we’ll get it done.”
