McCain's ghost could haunt Vance at the debate

As far as I know, the only person who has a direct connection to the spirit of the late Senator John McCain is Donald Trump, in whose mind McCain apparently purchased a vacation property.

We felt this not long ago when Trump staged a grotesquely inappropriate campaign photo op at Arlington National Cemetery.

It came the week of the sixth anniversary of McCain's death and left some thinking about how Trump disparaged the five years of torture McCain spent in a North Vietnamese prison camp and how he said of McCain: “He's not a war hero.” He is a war hero , because he was captured. I like people who haven’t been captured.”
