One explanation for McCain’s grogginess: a 75,000-mile itinerary as ‘shadow’ diplomat
Maybe this is why Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., seemed a bit groggy during Thursday’s high-profile congressional hearing: He had spent the previous week on the other side of the world, hop-scotching his way around the Pacific trying to reassure allies that the U.S. government remains in their corner.
It’s a role McCain has long played, but it’s taken on a more serious tenor in the era of President Donald Trump. Already this year, the senator has logged more than 75,000 miles to more than 15 nations across three continents, according to his staff.
More aptly, McCain is serving as a shadow secretary of state, trying to clean up or refute statements and positions that Trump has made.
This is from June of ‘17. Not sure if one of the 15 nations was the UK, but regardless of that, No Name was circling the globe to undermine POTUS. Just like Obama.
