President Joe Biden suggested Thursday that the late Sen. John McCain would be disappointed with the current state of the Republican Party.

Biden has fashioned himself as an optimistic uniter but frequently claims that, while he can achieve bipartisan accord with some Republicans, the bulk of the GOP loyal to former President Donald Trump poses a threat to democracy.

The president frequently jokes that the "ultra MAGA" wing of the GOP isn't "your father's Republican Party," and repeated those claims Thursday during an interview with MSNBC's Nicole Wallace.

Wallace, who previously worked for McCain before publicly switching parties, asked Biden what he thought her old boss "would think of his Republican Party" today.

"I don't think he'd think much of it," he responded before clarifying that he doesn't "know that" McCain would think.

"We can't speak for him, obviously," Wallace added, "but he was so strong in articulating what you just did" in reference to the president's "ultra MAGA" attacks.

"When I went out to see him when he was dying at his home in Arizona, he asked me going out — he said, 'Joe, would you do my eulogy?' It was one of the greatest honors that I've had," Biden continued. "Remember he started working with me when he came back from being a prisoner of war, and I helped talk him into running.

"We used to argue like hell, but like brothers, we'd end up hugging one another," he stated.

The president continued to say that he "got very upset with the last president, and even my good friend Lindsey [Graham]" for their treatment of McCain's legacy after his passing.

"Come on. This guy was a hero," Biden exclaimed. "We may disagree, but he was completely, thoroughly an honorable man."
