During his rally, Trump did not mention McCain by name but noted that McCain voted against legislation aimed at repealing and replacing ObamaCare, which failed by one vote.
“One vote away! I will not mention any names. Very presidential, isn’t it?” Trump said.
John McCain is undergoing treatment for brain cancer that was discovered last month.
