I respect the time John McCain served in the Navy, but after he got out, he showed who he really was.
The time he spent in service to our country was his choice and the fact that he was a POW was not. One can hardly take credit for surviving that fate. His "Tough as Nails" reputation can also be seen as a stubborn and obstinate disposition; he wanted to get his way at any cost.
He has been placed on a pedestal and admired by many, but I think it is how we treat our family that has to be taken into consideration as well, when others speak of our lives after we die.
Just looking at the treatment he gave his wife, after he returned from being held captive, I would say he is not worthy of all the current praise. John McCain was a 'Glory Hound', who pursued the spotlight every chance he got, I saw him to be one of the most arrogant and conceited politicians in history. I was also shocked after he stated he would vote for the repeal of Obama Care, then he voted against it. Who does that? I'll tell you who....someone who is set on revenge against anyone who does not bend to their will. In this case, Trump.
This is the account of his behavior after he returned to the U.S.
