Reminder that McCain was a military failson who crashed multiple aircraft that would have gotten a normal person kicked out, and married into wealth, and then abandoned his principles running for President by flipflopping on supporting torture despite being tortured himself in Vietnam

@sun

The thing I remember the most about McCain was his rabid hate of all things Russian. It was completely irrational, enough that he was throwing this weight in U.S. Senate to ban the importation of RD-180. Doing that would completely destroy ULA, which at the time was the only launch provider for heavy military satellites. McCain didn't care, but cooler heads in Deep State did, and his efforts came to naught. He was super mad about it.

And so, McCain is dead, but Russian engines delivered NASA astronauts to the ISS yesterday. ULA survived and introduced American engines on their new rocket, the Vulcan, also years after McCain's death.

John McCain and Adolph Hitler comprehensively demolished Heinlein's idiotic claim that military veterans were uniquely qualified to govern (one of them was a real war hero, too).

@union @sun ULA's nothing but an overpriced second source for ISS trips though. Very overpriced.
