Truth To "Power"

For those of you unfamiliar with the feud between Donald "Jaywalkin" Trump and "Senator" John McCain, here's a quick bit of history: They don't like each other. That's the briefest I can do. It probably was crystallized in that moment when DJ suggested that McCain was no war hero since he got captured. And endured five and a half years of internment in a Vietnamese prison camp. Longer than Rambo. Rambo is a fictional character. DJ does not seem to understand this distinction. John McCain is in his sixth term serving as the senior senator from the state of Arizona. DJ won one election, and he has the electoral college maps to prove it.
And while DJ's approval ratings continue to circle the drain, John McCain has experienced a renaissance of popularity. While battling brain cancer. Which may be why, when told about DJ's threat: "I'm being very nice. I'm being very, very nice. But at some point I fight back, and it won't be pretty," Senator John replied, "I've faced far greater challenges than this."
Which is exactly true. And truth wins out eventually.
Like this one: John McCain was awarded this year's Liberty Medal from the National Constitution Center's Board of Trustees. In is remarks, he said this: "To fear the world we have organized and led for three-quarters of a century, to abandon the ideals we have advanced around the globe, to refuse the obligations of international leadership and our duty to remain 'the last best hope of earth' for the sake of some half-baked, spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history."
Tired dogma. You go, Senator John!
Meanwhile, from the other side of the fence, grumbling and growling can be heard. One hundred forty characters at a time. This is mixed in with the self-promotional and congratulatory along with the usual insistence that everyone stand for the national anthem. That's DJ "being nice." I put my faith in the America envisioned by John McCain as the last best hope of the earth. 
Truth wins out.
