Meghan McCain, daughter of Sen. John McCain, said she had a conversation with President Trump since his public and private attacks against her father over the summer. "I don't believe he would go there again ... I don't think at this point in his administration it would be beneficial to him in any way," she said during an interview with Politico's Anna Palmer.

• On fellow political daughter, Ivanka Trump: "[S]he works in the administration; she has an office in the White House, and she has claimed not to be a political person. You're an adviser to your father, who also happens to be the president, and you're not a political person?"
• On Ivanka's positive response to Oprah's political speech at the Golden Globes: "[I]f anyone had gone on a platform like the Golden Globes and made a speech that was even in a tiny way — or a small veiled way — a criticism of my father ... I would have nothing nice to say about it."
• On the Trump administration's decision not to renew sanctions against Russia: "Every time I think that they don't look guilty, they do something like that, and it just looks bizarre to me."
• On her father's illness: McCain said she believes he'll return to Washington at some point.
