President Trump denied Wednesday night that he knew about a reported White House request that the military move the USS John S. McCain 'out of sight' during the president's state visit to Japan this week.

McCain's eldest daughter, Meghan McCain, co-host of the television show"The View," tweeted that Trump was"a child who will always be deeply threatened by the greatness of my dads incredible life."

"Trump won't let him RIP. So I have to stand up for him," she continued."It makes my grief unbearable." Trump is a child who will always be deeply threatened by the greatness of my dads incredible life. There is a lot of criticism of how much I speak about my dad, but nine months since he passed, Trump won't let him RIP. So I have to stand up for him.

Forest TRump!

Is that a surprise?

Pathetic

I heard the press wanted it moved

Just like Chris Christie didn’t know about the Fort Lee lane closure (Bridgegate), right?

realDonaldTrump mop boss never Omit he lie.

President right - a fake news story

He now makes Sarah Palin look like the better choice. What an insecure spoiled /privileged individual. God dont like ugly.

'Duh, I don't know what MY White House does!' Oh. My. Gaaaaaawd!! He is such a CHILD!

mr trump is a serial liar.

And of course we believe him? Get real!

Another lie? Don't you get tired of all the lies you spread? How do you keep track, just by stupid soundbites?

He knew

No sensible person would believe anything he says

Trump lies again. In other news, water is wet.

🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥

I love the whit hand next to the orange face! 😂 but then, I digress.....

Draft dodging! SOB!

Mr Teump is a disgrace to the office he holds. John McCain served with honor unlike Mr Trump. The Navy should have upheld that honor. People need to grow a spine to stand up to man when he is wrong.

Liar, liar pants on fire....again.

🐂💩🤥

Sure bone spur Trump. Brahahaha. Jerk

Even Melania is laughing at him

Was 'USS John S. McCain ' docked or just off shore? I think this is more fake news. What would be the point? They would have to be less than 5 miles from the beach for an average height person to see the name. Any move most likely to support air defence of Air Force 1.🙄

Sure would be fun if everyone started wearing a USS John McCain hat. Here's where you can order one: USS John S. McCain Cap - Unique Baseball Hat from CafePress $10 + $6.49 shipping, no tax. Made with unstructured 100% cotton

The most used words in Washington. “Trump denied ........”

Why is this relevant to normal life?

CHEAP SHOT by MEGHAN McCAIN! MSM needs a Conspiracy Daily to attack Trump. This is just the latest.McCain's Vendetta against Trump was Personal,Hateful to the detriment of the Country.He should have respected Trump's chance at Governing. Instead he did everything to SABOTAGE HIM!

Bet these navy men and women didn’t wear Patches on their uniforms in support of Trump either !

He denied contact with Russia. He denied tower project in Russia. He denied Russians meeting in his office for political reasons. His denials mean squat!

Not like he reads, so why bother?

This is the height of arrogance, stupidity on the part of Trump who avoided military service at all cost & subservience & obeisance from the part of the U S Navy big-wigs. Double shame on both! I am losing the little respect I had for the country!

This story has been debunked as Fake News. Why do you still have it up?

Can we court martial the Commander in Chief and the Secretary of the Navy for putting one of our warships in a position of shame?

10001 lies

Of course he denies it. He denies everything.

Insecurity at its best. This Clown has deep issues.

Seriously? Everybody already knows he can't tell the truth so you're going to print something he said?

Proudly another one of his lies stated by 45

Yah, right!!!

Riiiiiiight

Con Don.

MSNBC- he lies multiple times a day! He lied about the hush money, he lied about signing the checks, why is this denial newsworthy? So, he denies it-so what? It happened because of his infantile personality -report that!

Trump 2020

🤥 🤥 👖 🔥

As a kid he denied everything wrong he did...

Trump did ask, he hated John McCain because he was a great American hero and Senator

Shame on the lame Defense Secretary and the Pentagon for signing off on the petulant child’s tantrum.

If the White House did do that they did it to stop the media from questioning Trump about McCain. Then, they slander him anyway

He didn’t do it. He’s the vicious, spoiled brat.

He’s gaslighting us again

Navy says White House made the request - which is enough to verify we have a two-year old in the Oval Office. Don’t care if he ordered it himself; his staff thought it was appropiate to ask the Navy to spend their time hiding an entire Aircraft Carrier from view. Geezus...

John McCain is has the respect of both parties.Trump has the respect of 39% of republicans. Trump has shrunk his party to just the diehard republicans. I bet that rubbed the military the wrong way & losing support.

he lies about everything The media can't continue to be complicit in their coverage. There are emails trails here from the White House

It’s like trying to keep a 5 year old from having a tantrum in the store.

He denies it all that's what a liar does

Everybody with a half ounce of intelligence in the United States knows that Donald J Trump is a liar a draft dodger a supporter of our enemies in the United States only an idiot would believe one word that this may have would say

Of course he did

Liars lie.

EVEN JOHN MCCAIN BEING DEAD IS GETTING UNDER TRUMP'S THIN SKIN... THE WHITE HOUSE IS BEING RUN LIKE A SMALL NORTH KOREA.. DON'T UPSET THE LEADER OR YOU'RE FIRED OR MORE\\/

Yeah pretty sure that’s just another lie.

Ok simple: Who ordered it?

McTRAITOR

IF DONALD TRUMP DOES NOTHING TO INVESTIGATE WHO SEND OUT THAT ORDER.... MEANS.. THE PERSON IS HIM...REMEMBER LOOK AT HIS TRACK RECORD WHEN IT COMES TO THE TRUTH,,, ITS NEVER HIS NORM.

LIAR!

The staff knows DT is unstable and have to go to great lengths to keep him under wraps from his base or they will finally realize DT is crazy not just regular crazy but batshit crazy. That the base understands is bad!! And their goes his chances or reelection.

Well that’s hard to believe.

He’s full of crap.

bc he’s a liar!

He’s a control freak and knows everything that goes on. Even if it were true, he should have had the tarps taken down.

Pettiness on a Presidential level.

LOL, so he either is telling another lie (shocker) or he has no idea what his staff is doing, (Not good, but also believable). Either way confirming Trump isn’t qualified to be President! ImpeachNow

OMG how embarrassing having trump representing us in the world. Can’t believe that the GOP are letting their party sink so low, don’t they realize that they won’t recover from the damage he is doing to this country and their party.

Is there any way that the USS McCain can dock in the Potomac with guns pointed at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave?

Petty Muthafucka this guy is...he's beyond unpresidential...what's worse is that he uses the subservience of the soldiers, because they'll do anything and everything Trump wants them to like his little tin soldiers, without question.

The fact that the Navy took these actions DESPITE not being ordered to do so speaks volumes. About both Trump, and Navy leadership.

Oh yes, I believe the Liar Elect, Cadet Bone Spurs, the Coward in Chief.

BS

His denials like his words mean nothing. He’s a pathological liar.

He didn't know about the payments to his lover, Stormy Daniels either. FOH

But he lies!

lol. It means he knew. Nobody believes a fvcking word outta GOP mouths. Republicans lie. It's what they do.

Fake news! fakenews

realDonaldTrump acts like he has a small penis. I mean, small hands. His wanting to move a ship, that is named after a better man, out of his sight tells us all we need to know about his hand size. ImpeachTrump

His MO, deny.

So what it's not the medias job to attack our own President and second guess Him, do something productive and stop being pathetic!!!!!

If dat B realDonaldTrump served he'd kno u honor people who faught n risked their lives n wars Not hollering bone spurs r may b it was lil dic spurs cause he couldn't hang all nite long

Of course

Us president is a HUGH job. Unfortunately a small man is in the job.

Trump is lying

What a petty azzwipe...

It is a norm behaviour or culture in communist countries people have to do things to delight their leader, even the things are not right. The norm is blowing in this land.

Another lie.

derangedonald is the RUBBISH liar! Go home now!

This guy has cried wolf so many times no one believes a word that comes out of his mouth!

It's possible he didn't know it was there. I doubt he knows or cares about anything going on in the military. It's just that his temper is so volatile the staff were taking preemptive action to prevent a blow-up.

McConnell is the real traitor. And for what? Another SC judge.

No one but a Trumpista believes that. Trump lies about everything.

This is what needs to be reported?

Forget impeachment. It's time for the 25th Amendment. drumpf doesn't want to be President any longer. It is interfering with GOLF. he must be the Martyr. he is going to poke us in the eye until we force him out. Shame on McConnell who is standing by and watching this.

Of course he denies it, would he ever tell the truth about anything?

he is lying as usual

McCain passed away moths ago and is still living, rent free, in Trump’s head. This man is sick.

Hell, what doesn’t trump deny?

Disgusting

Ok so he knew...

Pathetic fakenews

BIG LIAR!

Time to rename Pennsylvania ave “John McCain Avenue”

realDonaldTrump well of course he denied it. He’s a known liar. He lies about lying.

It's such an echo chamber in here.

Sure he probably order it because he is jealous of McCain because he serve and he was brave, honest and a hero something he will never be

Unbelievable! How petty 🐔

It sounds exactly like some petty BS DJT would do.

Because as you know 45 is so truthful

The evidence is in plain sight..... why would the name on the ship 🚢 be covered and the officers bearing the name on their beret asked to go on a one day leave?

This is The most fake man I’ve seen in my whole life but if your wearing blinders like the kidnapped Republican party, well, your wearing blinders.

Yes he did and he knows everybody knows he did but he’ll lie anyway fake news from a fake president soon to be ex

Changing the Subject! ImpeachDonaldTrumpNOW

He denied it? Well folks then it’s true. You’re welcome 🇺🇸👍

Liar! Let some flunky take the fall like all the other flunkies doing jail time for Trump.

Trump is never aware of anything....strange

We don’t believe it. Period.

Lies lies and more lies! He has no morals!

The Godfather never takes the blame. That's the code.

Little wonder why Mr. Trump refer to the mainstream media as fake news! The report now is: 'Trump denies!' As if they was an accusation directly put forward on Trump earlier! Why does the mainstream media like brewing controversy on the man Trump?

Our country is really going to hell when this type of pettiness consumes the White House. Trump has created a rancid smell over the Presidency that will take many years to wear off.

It was FakeNews

More fakenews Getting sick of fake news reports!

He’s jealous of a dead man! How sad ;(

realDonaldTrump : I said I didn't know about it. Therefore I am exonerated. His imbecile base: hooray!

Doesn't matter, email came from WH. Any other administration would apologise first, claim they would look into it but eventually truth would appear. Now, the lie is spinned for years. Within a week WH will find Democrat that did this.

People who lie eventually get caught.

Lie lie lie

Oh please! We all know he ordered it!

trump can deny,deny,deny...But it sure sounds like something he'd say and do!

He’s lying, he not only knew about it, he probably ordered it!

🤥

Well that is a lie, we all know he knew about it

Yep, like he denied Stormy. Writing fake letter, and so much more.

He is a liar.

MSNBC is the enemy of USA citizens

It doesn't make ANY sense for WhiteHouse to instruct USNavy to 'hide' the USS John McCain from realDonaldTrump without him knowing about it.

Sure, because Individual 1 has always been totally above-board with the American people and always tells the truth.

He’s a liar

So it's true then, huh DONALD realDonaldTrump

Another lie on Wednesday.

realDonaldTrump denied asking the Navy to move the USS John McCain? Then it must be true.

Total lie.... again and again and again😔

Ok, but who believes him? He lies about everything, why stop now?

The man USA liar. It’s impossible for him to tell the truth. Everything , every word out of his mouth is false, is a lie!

Not only him, Aldo the navy

I hope he realize that John McCain isn’t on the ship

Lol! Are you all seriously surprised?

When you thought he couldn't get any more childish, this.

Translation: The Pathological Liar knew.

What do you expect...he's a PATHOLOGICAL LIAR!!! 🤬🤬🤬

BREAKING: Naval personnel covered the name of the USS John McCain and the WH covered up their actions to save the US Navy from embarrassment. One thing y'all are forgetting. The US military is about 90% Pro-Trump.

Btw. Your network lies. Does not verify the reports. I dare you to ask me why I say this. msnbc

Cadet fake bone spurs throws the US NAVY under the destroyer bus.

He lied again. Now what?

Buulllcrrraap. Didn't happen . The marking 56 was not covered. Provide a picture of the cover. The USS Marking appears in two spots. Show them covered.

This is really all you can report on? What about the biggest spying scandal in American history? How will history judge you clowns?

As a Statesman Senator John McCain destroyed his military legacy. Too bad for the deceased RINO👎 cc: POTUS 🇺🇸Patriot

Lying again on TV. Trump degrade John McCain while he was living, when he got sick, when he died, and now that he's dead, he's still saying & doing spiteful things 2 hurt the family. But he's going 2 pay for what he, Barr, & the Senate has done 2 make life miserable for many ppl

Oh course he lied

How did the Wall Street journal get an email about military movements?

The illegitimate POTUS lies.

morgfair 😠

I hear the WSJ has emails.

OK where is the proof?

Trump has to go! His ultra fragile ego is continuously manipulated by foreign heads of state and assorted despots to the great detriment of our nation. If only the GOP had more John McCain’s willing to place the good of the country over fellating a desperate and infantile fool.

The Ghost of McCain is in his Big Head!!

LIAR!

Shame

Did it say he knew? I thought it said the staff arranged it because they knew he would go bunkers. I don’t care . It is just a funny distraction from all the other lies today.

The 🍊 Menace strikes again. DJT is a petty lil b1tch. He can fvck right off. RIP John McCain.

He's lying again. What a discrace!!!

Liar Liar Pants on Fire

okiedokiepokey But Trump did admit to asking Japan to sink the ship...

ImpeachDonaldTrumpNOW

Ok cheeto bone spur told the Japanese military happy Memorial Day. Greatest day ever. But I am sure he was talking about the two days in a row we dropped atomic bombs on them.

Good move, McCain was a traitor to his Party and helped to try to take down Trump. Also screwed the entire Country on Healthcare out of his hatred of Trump...All about his Ego, NOT his Country.

Liars going to lie

He is basically sgt.Schultze - he knows nothing

He also said no obstruction, no collusion, he did not pay off porn stars, that he was a successful businessman, that he was really rich, that he was a Christian, that he is really smart, that he knows the best people and so on...... 🙄 ImpeachDonaldTrumpNow

🐷

realDonaldTrump You may or may not have known. You lie so much you have no credibility. But here's the point...it is believable that you would order this. You are the pettiest, most mean-spirited person alive. So whether you did or didn't--you could have. VoteThemAllOut

Of course, he denied it! No one ever expected him to admit it. NotNews

And even if he did who cares?

He denied the Stormy payoff, too.

Trump is so insecure, he literally has to lie about everything. Here's the truth: McCain is everything Trump will never be. Trump is everything McCain never was.

Then who did? realDonaldTrump has made over 10,000 provable lies to us... what is one more to this sicko?

He’s lying as usual!

BS

Hahaha trump isn’t t believable

His lips are moving so we all know what that means!!🤥😶🙄
