Complaint that media was mean to McCain is nuts (whether or not you add "and this is why we got Trump") Overall, very positive. Perpetuated "maverick" brand. McCain joked media was his base. David Brooks called him McCain (R-media). Take a break from grievance-mongering for once.

FFS, take some personal responsibility. Republicans had many options in 2016. Multiple people of integrity. Chose Trump anyway. It's not because political opponents and media figures were mean to McCain and Romney. It's because Republican voters wanted Trump. 5/x

I don't doubt that many Republicans believe that harsh public criticism of McCain and Romney made them vote Trump. But that's an excuse. A shirking of responsibility. And it's pathetic. 6/x

"Some people were mean to me, so I had to do something terrible to everyone" is a supervillain origin story, not a reasoned political argument. You're adults. Citizens. Voters. Own your choices. (END)
