MC Cain...
McCain's forensic questioning of Rumsfeld, who he later described as "one of the worst secretaries of defence in history", over Guantanamo Bay forced a change of administration policy.
McCain repeatedly called for US military intervention in Syria in 2011. In 2017, he championed Trump's decision to launch an attack against Syrian government forces, saying the action had "been eight years in the making".
In 2011, McCain was one of the strongest backers in Congress of US military intervention in Libya, calling on Washington to recognise Libyan rebels' transitional council as the true voice of the Libyan people and transfer frozen assets to them.
McCain was a supporter of George W Bush's decision to go to war with Iraq in 2003 and a later US troop surge.
One would say how come? He was in Vietnam, arrested, spent five years imprisoned. A very tough life, then come back and that is what he is after. Another failed ntervention.

Mis-step...

It is a misguided ad. Just a thought.
