“While I’m not thinking it was particularly wise to say it...getting captured is not an achievement.”
I don’t care for most of McCain’s politics for sure. And, I agree that getting captured is no an achievement. But, what is an achievement and what McCain did that was honorable and brave is the way he conducted himself during his six years in captivity. That was very much an achievement. Trump really stepped in it this time.
I think McCain did more than 30 anti-american broadcasts while in captivity.... Great service to his country for sure!
Ted Sampley once had a fair bit to say about McCain’s POW tenure.
