- The new musical 'The Ghost of John McCain' portrays the late senator trapped inside former President Donald Trump's mind, trying to debate his way out.
- The production team behind the musical, including producer Jason Rose and former McCain campaign aide Max Fose, aims to entertain and educate, not to defame any political figures.

- Despite initial surprise and lack of awareness about the musical from McCain's family, the production team plans to keep them informed as the musical evolves.
- The musical also includes controversial portrayals of other political figures, such as Senator Lindsey Graham, depicted as a submissive character who refers to Trump as 'Daddy'.
