Very insightful thread on McCain’s (very bad) climate politics — and what it tells us about him and the media coverage of himhttps://twitter.com/drvox/status/1034132463289683970?s=21 …

David RobertsVerified account @drvox1. All right. I am declaring the period of Enforced McCain Hagiography over. I think every "objective" political journalist has had a chance to give his legacy a tongue bath by now, no?
