During Friday’s episode of “The View,” McCain said giving Trump credit for the vaccine would help show that getting vaccinated is a bipartisan issue.
“If the White House truly wanted to show that this a bipartisan issue — that this is about getting everyone vaccinated, not just Democrats — they should give a little credit to President Trump,” McCain said.
McCain said that “Fast and Furious,” referring to Operation Warp Speed, really did work in accelerating the availability of coronavirus vaccines.
She further took aim at White House press secretary Jen Psaki, who previously said that other former presidents “did not need an engraved invitation” to promote vaccinations.
“At this point, if it’s this serious that we’re going to lock down the country and masking everyone including, by the way, 2-year-olds, you should invite President Trump someone in Trumpland to help get the messaging out because until then we’re all being held hostage until this maybe never passes,” McCain said.
