Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) on Monday reportedly told media that the late Sen. John McCain was “partially to blame” for the ongoing ordeal in which President Trump’s White House briefly lowered its flag to half-staff to honor the late senator before raising it before eventually lowering it again. According to reporters, Sen. Inhofe assigned partial blame to McCain for the sickening spectacle because he was “very outspoken that he disagreed with the president in certain areas and wasn’t too courteous about it.”
