I think this isn't a black and white issue, and a number of reasonable stances can be taken here. He's not a nice man, his dying actions are not nice, but we also need to be careful about what we say about him, because that reflects on us more than him. And, we need to not hide the truth - as much as we know the truth of the matter. I appreciate Catherine being extremely charitable with regard to Mr. McCain, and I appreciate those who try to make sure that truth doesn't die with McCain. Stepping off of my soapbox now...
@Sanguine I understand your POV; as I said earlier, I’m not a McCain fan. You won’t see me trying to whitewash him or his career. But like I’ve said...oh, hell with it, I’ve repeated it enough now. But I really do agree with what you say.
Jonah Goldberg was right, IMO, when he said it’s particularly debasing that some are angry with McCain to prove their love of Trump.
Before anybody yells, I’m not accusing anyone here of that; the word “some†is important. But I’ve seen enough Twitter outrage on Trump’s behalf from MAGA people to know that it’s true.
Then again, Jonah is a SOROS-funded ally of the globalists, so...
