Trump has a special talent for sensing vulnerabilities.

Why exactly do the McCains hate Trump so bitterly? Because he stuck a pin in John McCain’s personal balloon — the myth of heroism that underpins McCain’s entire career. McCain was neither intelligent (last in his class), nor wise (armed ISIS and helped create Syrian crisis; never met a war he didn’t like). Not known for probity (paging Mr. Keating) or integrity (cheated on and dumped his first wife for younger, less injured, much RICHER woman). No known acts of generosity or kindness. Impulsive, reckless, and ineffective. How did he get elected the first time and survive scandals? Hero myth.

Politically, McCain a practitioner of the Kim Jong Il method (the troublemaker gets the grease). Let others create stability, then move in as a “maverick” and leverage your contrariness so everyone bargains for your support or quiet.
