Is there any fad or leftist cause that McCain won’t glom on to?
“Is there any fad or leftist cause that McCain won’t glom on to?”
John McCain should have the title of Senatorial $hit Disturber, because he seeks out any issue where he can be at odds with everyone. Can’t wait to read his obit.
McCain has been agitating against the Jones Act for a long time. The Jones Act does raise costs for shipping between US ports, but without it there would be no US Merchant Marine. International shipping is manned by dollar-a-day Third World sailors, a large number of whom have their passports confiscated once on board and are basically slaves. They get abandoned in distant ports or become personae non gratae, trapped in port or on rusting hulks with no means to get home.
McCain is in someone’s pocket in the international shipping industry. US merchant shipping is already at levels insufficient to sustain any significant tempo of military operations or losses against a sophisticated enemy. To damage it further is hardly the position of a patriot.
Every time McCain opens his mouth to spew some BS it makes me hate him even more!
He could have said it was great that Trump waived the Jones Act to help PR, but that would have been supportive of Trump.
Instead, he coerces that wishy-washy Lee to back him in a move that would indicate Trump isn’t doing enough to help PR.
A couple of years ago, I thought Lee was a Conservative-leaning Mormon, but in recent months he’s proved me wrong.
