    His call. Though, attending the funeral of a senior senator from your party is one of the duties of the POTUS.

    I'm going to chalk it up to his having a very aggressive brain cancer as to his decision to exclude a President. I know he hated Trump, but this went over the line of obsession.

    To quote Hillary, "at this point [his being dead], what difference does it make."

    I wouldn’t expect any honorable person to want a vulgarian like Trump at his funeral. Can’t imagine the hedonistic Trump at a solemn event such as a funeral.

    Yeah, I prefer that people be “proper”, not hedonistic and immoral.

    Immoral, like supporting murder of the innocent?
    Immoral, like hanging around with a man who bombed a police department?

    The President can always inquire of Senator McCain's family whether they want him in attendance. If they say "no", the President can truthfully say that he did not attend at the family's request.

    Or Trump can keep his mouth shut, act like a decent human being(I know that is really, really difficult for him), and respect the late senator’s wishes.

    Maybe he has sought forgiveness for his sin? If you can be forgiven, how about President Trump?

    What's with all the hoopla for McCain? Sure he was a true military hero, but his political life was not quite up to his Navy days standard. Now all the libs who voted against the man now see him as the best thing since sliced bread. Please!

    “I am not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don't think so. I think if I do something wrong, I think, I just try and make it right. I don't bring God into that picture. I don't." - Donald Trump on wherher he has asked God for forgiveness
