Likely released to temp Trump to use it. Hopefully Trump does not take the bait.
You are both correct. Trump needs to refuse this poisoned bait. While McCain may be one of the worst RINOS, this is a setup to tempt Trump into another, “Trump disrespects Vets” faux-pas.
While McCain’s actions may be suspect, the entire subject of coerced confessions is a no-win for all. Everyone knows that anyone can be broken, and having this conveniently show up now is more than suspect. I imagine the Democrats have held this over McCain forever and it may explain many of his actions over the course of his overlong tenure.
