McCain: Cruz 'Not Representing Us'

On Friday, after blaming conservatives like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) for the Obama administration’s mishandling of military death benefits, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said Cruz simply did not represent the GOP.

Fox News host Martha MacCallum mentioned that Cruz would be visiting President Barack Obama along with other Republican senators like Rand Paul (R-KY), Mike Lee (R-UT), and Marco Rubio (R-FL) at the White House on Friday.

She asked McCain, “How do you feel about him representing you there?” 

In response, McCain smirked before saying, “First of of all, Martha, please, he’s not representing us there.” 

Also in the interview, McCain said conservatives were as much to blame for the problem regarding the military death benefits as Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel.
