Senators who knew John McCain well for his principled stances and even his occasional outbursts saluted their longtime colleague Monday, as President Trump finally relented and put the White House flag at half-staff. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who sometimes clashed against him, called McCain 'America's hero.' 'Until the very end he served his country. Until the very end,' said Sen. Jeff Flake, now the senior senator in McCain's home state of Arizona. McCain's desk was draped in black with a vase of white roses. An impromptu memorial appeared in the Russell Senate Office Building. It included a naval officer's hat.
