'POS Even in Death': Adviser to Neo-Confederate Republican Congressional Candidate Launches Attack on McCain Hours Before His Funeral

Rick Shaftan, a campaign adviser to far-right Virginia Republican congressional candidate Corey Stewart, posted an attack on deceased Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) just hours before his funeral.

He posted an article about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin not being invited to McCain's funeral.

“A POS even in death. She was the only reason millions of Americans voted for this loser,”  Shaftan wrote. [[{"type":"media","view_mode":"media_original","fid":"634871","attributes":{"alt":"","class":"media-image","height":"437","typeof":"foaf:Image","width":"478"}}]]

These aren't the first repugnant comments from Shaftan.

This same adviser also reportedly called majority Black cities in the U.S. "sh*tholes" in the past.
