   That was Johnny's nickname bestowed by his "captors".   
      
   WASHINGTON — People close to Sen. John McCain have told the   
   White House that the ailing Arizona Republican does not want   
   President Donald Trump to attend his funeral and would like Vice   
   President Mike Pence to come instead, a source close to McCain   
   confirmed to NBC News.   
      
   McCain, 81, has been battling an aggressive form of brain cancer   
   for nearly a year and is back home in Arizona after he underwent   
   surgery last month for an intestinal infection.   
      
   The senator, the 2008 GOP presidential nominee, said in an audio   
   excerpt this week of his forthcoming memoir, "I don't know how   
   much longer I'll be here," according to a clip aired by NPR.   
      
   The sooner the better.  Eat a bullet and get it over with.
