Emotional Joe Biden remembers John McCain as ‘a brother’ at memorial service
Former Vice President Joe Biden gave a tearful remembrance of his friend, John McCain at a memorial service in Phoenix Thursday, calling the late senator his “brother.”
“My name is Joe Biden. I’m a Democrat. And I loved John McCain,” said Biden, who lost his son Beau to brain cancer, the disease that claimed McCain’s life.
“I always thought of John as a brother,” he added. “We had a hell of a lot of family fights. We go back a long way.”
