at this point in time, how does america get out of this hate and toxic environment? i think it takes all of us. you have to change the narrative. i think you are seeing that. i think you saw that in this election process somewhat. it is about changing the narrative and also about taking a breath and stepping back. let's remind each other and talk to each other and disagree with each other in a civil tone. john mccain stood for a certain approach to the world. he was morally self—confident. john had an unwavering moral compass. that was in large part due to his experience, his life experiences, as with anybody, but his moral compass was and always will be something to learn from. i have seen him, i would think he'll

probably do that and he will turn around and do the opposite because it was the right thing. i'm not saying he never did anything that was incorrect, butjust in the decisions and how he treated people and a perfect example was the woman that stood up in the town hall and said obama is a muslim, i cannot vote for him. he is an arab. he is not... no ma'am. he is a decent, family man citizen that ijust happen to have disagreements with. no one saw that coming. it was quintessentialjohn mccain. what about when he voted not to have obamacare repealed? what did you think? i did not know how he was going to vote. but i knew he would do the right thing. he was being pressured from every side on that and it was a bad bill. it was kind of a quick fix that wouldn't really from a long—term level give us a quality health care and things we should be doing. so he did the right thing.

itjust wasn't politically expedient for the republican party. there is a feeling though that that approach to this world is either lost or changing. what do you say to the people in thejohn mccain camp who want a sense of reassurance? you mean mccaniacs. laughter. i would tell anybody to never ever give up on this country or the process. it is not a perfect process, but it is a process. and it works. i just truly believe in the greatness of america and the greatness of our leaders. they will rise to the occasion, i really mean that. and many of them are already there, but i do also think we broke the mould withjohn mccain.

so i don't think we will ever see another one quite like him. i was going to ask do you think there can be anotherjohn mccain? oh, i hope so. i think i'm raising a few of them. so... i really hope so because his leadership and his kind of love for this country and love for the world stage in terms of making it a better place is something that ijust hope somebody rises to that. you talked about ending the kind of rhetoric that is used. the president said that undocumented immigrants infest the united states and he has used other inflammatory rhetoric. do you think the us is showing properly leadership in response to refugees? i disagree with the president, i know my husband did also, again, i hope he learns from all these things. there no reason to be afraid of anyone seeking asylum or anything else. ijust hope the president tames down the rhetoric and steps back and takes a look at what is really going on in the world. do you think it's politicized close to an election time

and these things are used... politics were a big part of it, a large part of it. i think the scare tactics that took place were just that, scare tactics. we just had the midterm elections, you referred to them. a democratic candidate won a seat in arizona. that is your home state. what do you think happened? i think for one, the voter turnout was very heavy... on both sides of the aisle, a heavy turnout on everybody. and also i think people were frustrated with the rhetoric. they were frustrated with again, wanting change and wanting a difference. one of the things that we have been talking about that senator mccain really talked about was bipartnership, cooperation around the biggest national problems. many speakers at the memorial spoke about unity. that was one of the big themes that came out of that. just soon after, we had the supreme court vote and the whole kavanaugh fiasco.

the environment has become so incredibly toxic. in every twist and turn. it is. unfortunately, and once again i go back to, "i hate you because you are a different party." that is not how this is. that is not how it should be. this 24—hour news cycle and the instant access to twitter and other things are not helping at all. i am hoping that this election has proved that people are a little bit frustrated. not even a little bit, they are frustrated. especially by what is going on and hopefully it will change. john would have been so disappointed in this election. just because the nastiness and the discourse in my own home state and across the country. there are a lot of people who say that today's republican party has abandoned the things that

john mccain or ronald reagan really stood for. where do you think the future of the republican party stands? i believe that we will once again be a strong and a moderate party. we are the party of lincoln. i cannot believe this party would just go away. it will not. but we have to learn from our mistakes and lick our wounds and start again. does the president have your support in the 2020 elections? oh, i don't even know if he will run. and he is not sure. i don't believe he is sure he's going to run. do you think he might not? i don't know. i am like you. i have no inside track on this. ijust hear what i hear. i think we all need to support the white house in anything because it is our white house. we can be free to disagree and be free to voice our disagreements. as far as supporting a candidate, i will stay out of elective politics for a while.

i have been doing that for 38 years with my husband. i just want to make sure my kids are safe. and my state is solid. based on his performance so far, if there was an election today, would he have your vote? i can't answer that right now. i really can't. i think at this point i would like to see some softening of the rhetoric. it is hurtful. were you hurt when the president said he wasn't a war hero? yes, i was. i thought it was inappropriate and wrong. i really did. it hurt the family, too. and hurt the other men that served with john and were in prison as well. it wasn't just aboutjohn. so, i think that was a wrong thing to say and i don't know if i'll ever get over it, to be honest.

but i am the wife. that is my prerogative. i don't have to. in terms of the senate, you spoke about him being the voice of conscience in the senate. why is nobody stepping up now? i don't know. i can't answer that. i would hope that eventually... it comes with maturity also. he didn't start out that way. he was very bipartisan, but the older you get, the more you realise the importance of temperament. and that you can... those things that made his kind of leadership so special. somebody will level up. absolutely. we are americans. that is what we do. your daughter, meghan, hit out at the president. she was tough. the america ofjohn mccain has no need to be made great again

because america was always great. do you think that she's carrying her father's straight talk? laughter. i think so. i did not know the text of the speech. i knew she was giving one, but i had not read it and i was so preoccupied with so much. i thought she did an amazing job and she spoke her mind and i would not expect anything less from her or any other mccain either. it is interesting to watch your kids grow, especially meghan, but she definitely isjohn mccain in a dress, and we have been all saying that all along since she was a kid. she has his temperament and style. is there something that you can tell us aboutjohn mccain that the world doesn't know? oh, gosh, yes.

people view him as this war hero, which he was, and all the things, the macho things we think about, but he loved birds and he loved flowers and trees. so anybody that knew him really well, he would walk along our property, we used to call them newbies, somebody new would come down property and he would instantly give them a tour of the trees and the birds. he was a very meticulous person when it came to nature. i don't think people would expect that of them. but he was. it was really fun to watch. john mccain changed the world. how did he change your world? oh, my gosh. i had the good fortune of not only marrying this incredible man, and having a family with him, but i had a front—row seat to history. in every way. i never expected that life at all. i never expected anything close to it. it was, and still is, truly amazing. and it was something that, i think we all will miss him for the obvious reasons,

but he was the life of the party, the one that walked in the door, you knew it was going to be a good night kind of thing. he was just the guy. i will miss that about him, but he was something else. mrs mccain, thank you for your time. thank you. the quite a. com plete complete change on the way in the coming days. atlantic weather systems will start knocking on our doorfrom
