Meghan McCain SNAPS, Launches Unhinged Attack On Kari Lake
Meghan McCain, the daughter of the late U.S. Senator John McCain, publicly clashed on X again with Arizona Senate hopeful, Kari Lake. The dispute unfolded when McCain sharply criticized Lake, accusing her of attempting to backtrack on previous criticisms of her father and his supporters.
Meghan McCain‘s remarks came in response to Lake’s conciliatory message, which sought to bridge political divides and extend an olive branch amidst their heated exchange.
On Tuesday, McCain took to X to express her disdain for Lake’s recent efforts to mend fences. In a fiery post, McCain wrote: “Kari Lake is trying to walk back her continued attacks on my Dad (& family) and all of his loyal supporters after telling them to ‘get the hell out’. Guess she realized she can’t become a Senator without us. No peace, bitch. We see you for who you are – and are repulsed by it.”
Hi Meghan,
As mothers, (both with two kiddos) I’m know we both agree that our children’s future is too important to let it slip away over past grudges or hurt feelings. That’s why I’m working hard to unite Republicans, Independents, Democrats — ALL Americans.
We are facing…

The post came in the wake of Lake’s attempts to reach out to McCain with a message asking for unity and the shared priorities of securing a prosperous future for their children.
Lake’s message to McCain highlighted potential common ground as mothers as Lake expressed a desire to work together. “My dad passed away from cancer, too,” she wrote. “I trust and believe that if our fathers were still with us they would do everything they could to save this Republic.”
Lake’s outreach included an offer to meet for a discussion over coffee or lunch and a wish to collaborate for the betterment of Arizona and the country. However, McCain’s vehement response showed the depth of the rift between them, dismissing Lake’s overture and signaling an unwillingness to reconcile.

McCain wrote on Wednesday morning, “NO PEACE, BITCH!”
The relationship between McCain and Lake has been contentious, largely playing out publicly on X. McCain has been vocal in her criticism of Lake, particularly in response to Lake’s political comments and her use of the term “Maverick,” which was closely associated with her father.
You hags deserve each other. https://t.co/8waFj6Ol2k

The exchanges have included sharp words from McCain, describing Lake with terms like “sideshow freak” and “lunatic,” and criticizing her for adopting the “Maverick” nickname.
REACTIONS:
All Kari can do is extend the olive branch.
If you refuse to take it, that’s your call.
This kind of blind anger is not conducive to bringing Arizona together.
It won’t stop Kari from trying.

Kari's post does not warrant that kind of response, Meghan. It just doesn't.
