‘The View’ Star Ana Navarro Says It’s ‘Inhumane’ to Be ‘Celebrating’ Lindsey Graham’s Death

Ana Navarro is calling out people celebrating South Carolina senator Lindsey Graham‘s passing.

On the Monday, July 13, episode of The View, the political commentator, 54, said the politician was a “friend of mine for many years.”

“First thing I wanna say is I saw a lot of posts online this week kind of celebrating his death and rejoicing,” Navarro said. “And listen, I know that [Donald] Trump does that. He did it with Bob Mueller. He did it with John McCain. He did it with Rob Reiner, but it’s inhumane, and it’s really lacking empathy.”

“The dead person’s dead and can’t hear you and can’t read your post, but his family, his sister who he adopted when she was 13 because both their parents died, is alive and is hearing it,” she continued. “And so I think that for the benefit [of] humanity, for having normal decency towards the family of the dead, that just has to stop. The fact that Donald Trump is indecent doesn’t mean the rest of us have to do it.”

However, Navarro noted “there was a Lindsey before Trump and a Lindsey after Trump. Two completely different Lindsey’s.”

Navarro claimed Graham “became just a completely different person” after John McCain died in 2018.

“I get it that people are brokenhearted. I’m brokenhearted,” she added. “I get it that people were disappointed in him. I’m disappointed in him.”

Graham “passed away from a brief and sudden illness” on Saturday, July 11, at 71 years old, per a statement posted on his social media accounts on Sunday, July 12.

The chief medical examiner said Graham died from aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, per The Hill.
