Graham, Lieberman praise Meghan McCain eulogy that included swipes at Trump

BY BRETT SAMUELS - 09/02/18 09:53 AM EDT

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and former Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) on Sunday praised Meghan McCain's eulogy of her father, which included swipes at President Trump.

Graham said he was "totally OK" with McCain's remarks, during which she declared "America is already great" and condemned "cheap rhetoric."

"She’s a beautiful, talented young lady. She is her father’s daughter. If you say something bad about her dad you will know it," Graham said. "She was grieving for the father she adored."

Lieberman, meanwhile, called himself a "very proud uncle" after listening to Meghan McCain's speech.

"She’s grieving, and yet by the nature of his life, she’s called on to make a very public, global statement," Lieberman said. "But she did it, and she did it magnificently."
