Senator McCain planned his own funeral after learning last summer that he had terminal brain cancer.
The four-day celebration of his life began Wednesday, August 29.
Sen. McCain produced a rebuke to President Trump, who has condemned the senator for years.
“They have a very different view of this country and what this country means, here and abroad,” said Mark Salter, the senator’s longtime friend.
A memorial service was hold on Thursday, August 30 in Arizona before Mr. McCain’s body was moved to Washington.
