Pretty lopsided article. Not a word about the accounts from other POW’s that were there claiming he caved and made over 30 videos dissing the US. Or the fact that the Vietnamese took it easy on him because his father was an admiral...

Not a word about helping push through legislation making it possible to hide info about prisoners left there. Not a word about McCain doing absolutely nothing to help vets in his years in Congress...

The accounts of Trump’s lifestyle may be accurate, but quite a lot has been left out about McCain...

He and Kerry should rightly be criticized about this. Criticize all you want about McCain the politician, but don't criticize MCain the POW. Trump should have attacked him for this. It would be fair game. As to your statements about making 30 videos dissing the U.S. do you have proof of this? I have never read this and if you have proof I would love to see it.

I'd love to know who the other POWs are. I know about other vets making such claims, but I don't know of any POW who was with McCain saying anything. The POWs that I know personally won't say anything, one way or another. Their position is that what happened in Hanoi is between them and them only. Is there someone who is talking now?

Every man caved, or died.

You would too.
