I would disagree but I liked 2000 McCain better than the one that came after. Point while I never wanted him Potus, I wouldn’t be embarrassed by him either like I am Trump.

In 2000, McCain had yet to make the Devil’s Bargain with the extreme right-wing Christian wackos that he had to fellate in ‘08 to get the nomination. They had not yet consolidated their takeover of the GOP.

The problems with the party stem from this. Their “base” is utterly divorced from reality. “Jeebus will fix it!” is their answer to climate change, the national debt … anything but abortion.
