'Democrats are reinventing history': McCain threatens to 'spill tea on his father's feelings about Harris'

Meghan McCain warns Vice President Kamala Harris not to invoke her father's memory.

The former co-host of “The View” threatened in a post

Harris praised the late senator during a rally Thursday night in McCain's home state of Arizona. She told the crowd about a moment she shared with the elder McCain at the U.S. Capitol before his death in 2018.

“He says, ‘Child, come here. “You will be a great senator,” she said. “You know, we didn't agree on everything, but, man, I mean, what about an incredible American hero?”

Megan protested the anecdote on social media, accusing Harris of trying to “reinvent history” and “falsify his memory.”

“I know Democrats want to reinvent history and turn my father into whatever illusion you need, depending on the political moment you need to distort his memory for,” McCain wrote. “Please don’t make me tell you what I remember him actually saying about Kamala Harris.”

John McCain voted for Harris at least once during his year in the Senate, breaking with Republicans to save the Affordable Care Act from then-President Donald Trump's attempt to repeal it. This act earned him a degree of reverence among the center-left and served as a symbol of anti-Trump bipartisanship.

Trump famously denigrated John McCain for becoming a prisoner of war in the Vietnam War. Since then, several members of McCain's family have supported candidates running against Trump. Megan refers to itself as “the last Republican in the family” but has no plans to support either candidate.

McCain warned Harris to stay away from her father's legacy. Shortly after spreading a viral and debunked conspiracy theory accusing Harris of relying on a teleprompter, she threatened to “spill tea” about what her father actually thought about Harris.
