McCain was captured, likely tortured beyond his capacity, and nicknamed ‘Songbird’ by his captors. Can’t judge him for that as I wasn’t in his shoes.
He would have been a hero except he dishonored himself later. McCain became a champion of the Muslim Brotherhood. McCain defended Hussein.
He should have supported his President Trump, but he instead supported the coup to overthrow the duly elected President.
McCain did not die on his own terms, he was a traitor in the end.

I despise John McCain for his behavior as a politician. But there is no evidence he acted badly while a POW. Yes, at one point, he broke and signed a confession. Lots did.

As best I can tell, the “Songbird” thing first appeared in 2008 in a campaign flyer put out by a guy who had never been a POW. Bud Day caled the flyer “the most outrageous f——— lie I’ve ever heard.”

There are a TON of reasons to hate McCain. No reason to make up false stories.
