Here is how an expert on Arab/Muslim affairs sees the McCain/Graham trip to Egypt.  Embedded in his article is the argument for rejecting the McCain/Graham notion that the overthrow of Morsi was the result of a military coup. Instead,  his ouster was the result of a compliant military surrendering to the demands of 33 million demonstrating Egyptians,  the largest demonstration in the recorded history of man  -  much larger than the demonstrations that brough Morsi to power.  While Morsi's demise is not the result of an offical democratic vote,  clearly,  it is by the will of the people of Egypt.  So much for a "military coup."  Apparently the Bobbsey Twins think it not important that the Muslim Brotherhood is no friend to the West,  that it is bent on the total annihilation of Israel, that its push for Shira Law stands against all of American principles as to social politics,  that it intends to institute dictatorial rule over the very people who voted it into power,   much as Obama longs to do in this country  (and is doing via regulations and blatant violations of Federal/Constitutional law).    

Rayomnd Ibrahim writes: In the eyes of tens of millions of Egyptians, Senators John McCain’s and Lindsey Graham’s recent words and deeds in Egypt—which have the “blessing” of President Obama—have unequivocally proven that U.S. leadership is aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Egyptian media is awash with stories of the growing anger regarding this policy.  

A top advisor to Egypt’s Interim President Adly Mansour formally accused McCain of distorting facts to the benefit of the Brotherhood, dismissing the senator’s remarks as “irrational”—or, more colloquially, “moronic.”  Ahmed al-Zind, head of the Egyptian Judge Club, called for the arrest and trial of McCain for “trying to destroy Egypt.”  The leader of the youth movement, Tamarod (or “Rebellion” against the Brotherhood) which played a major role in mobilizing the June 30 Revolution, said “We reject John McCain and call on the international community to let the [Egyptian] people decide their own fate.”
