The late Senator John McCain was not a perfect man. No one is. He may not even have been quite the maverick we all believed him to be (McCain voted with Trump 83% of the time, which included greenlighting all of Trump's cabinet-level picks, except for Mick Mulvaney (McCain voted no) and the disaster that was Scott Pruitt (no vote)). Still, John McCain was a man of honor, a dedicated public servant, and a fundamentally decent human being. He will be missed, especially now, in this time of poisonous politics.
A friend was reading about all the incidents that happened to him when he was a young pilot. I said that he sounded like Tom Cruise from Top Gun. And then I saw his picture from that time. He WAS Tom Cruise from Top Gun! :) He will be sorely missed, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteHe was a true hero and should be remembered with respect, regardless of his faults or political views.
