During the past few days, Senator McCain has given this nation a gift, even after he passed away.
We have been united in our grief, admiration, and gratitude for this great man , a decorated war hero who suffered 5 1/2 years in captivity in a North Vietnam prison camp, then went on to serve his country as a Senator. He endured a disappointing presidential bid, but kept his dignity, and went on to fight the good fight.
Just for a little while, we didn't have to see and hear so much about what is wrong with the President of our country. Whether you're a Trump supporter or not, it gets depressing to hear about every little thing he says or does wrong. No matter who has been president of the USA in my lifetime, I always wanted them to do a good job. It's a sad day when the leader of the free world is forced to resign, or is impeached, and it certainly doesn't help the mood of ordinary Americans.So here's to Senator John McCain--a true statesman and American hero, beloved by people in both political parties. Thanks for making us proud to be Americans on this day before your funeral.
