Vice President Kamala Harris praised the late Republican Sen. John McCain’s 2017 vote against repealing the Affordable Care Act during a campaign rally Thursday in his home state of Arizona, throwing in a reenactment of his decisive “thumbs down” gesture on the Senate floor.
Harris told the Phoenix crowd how she, then a senator, saw Donald Trump’s goal thwarted.
“It was late, late, late in the night. They were trying to get rid of the Affordable Care Act again, and it required one more vote to keep it intact, and that was the late, great John McCain, a great American, a war hero,” she said.
