Bad Republican : a memoir / by McCain, Meghan,author.(CARDINAL)558162;
"With the aptly titled Bad Republican, Meghan McCain expresses how it is to feel like you no longer fit in with your political party. She tells of growing up the daughter of an American icon who shaped her life and details the heartbreaking final moments spent by his side. She recalls her (mis)adventures on the New York dating scene and brings us up to speed on meeting her now-husband. We hear her views on cancel culture and internet trolls as well as life backstage as the sole Republican at America's most-watched daytime talk show--and why she decided to leave. And with surprising candor, she divulges why a miscarriage and the birth of her daughter have left her so fired up about women's rights--even if that puts her at odds with her party"--
