No matter what you think of John McCain, he really lived his life based on the values he grew up with. He has flaws, but he was honest about it and accepted his mistakes and was apologetic about it. You may not agree with his policies but this man has principle. Few men are willing to forsake his party for his principle. That makes him one of a kind. Salute to you Sir. Rest in Peace.
Black Widow ... Thats not true. The truth may hurt, but I don’t like liars. If you want the real truth, look for it. If you don’t, then that’s ok too.?
I used to believe in McCain. Then, I was forced to listen and all that I didn’t want to believe, I realized it was true.
John was a wild, rude, disobedient young man. At Annapolis, he was always in trouble and because he was from a privileged Navy family, he let that “bratty privileged “ person out. Out of a class of 495 graduates, he was 5th from the bottom.
On the Navy ship where he was a pilot, he goofed around with the planes despite numerous warnings. His refusal to obey those warnings resulted in an on ship explosion which killed, I believe 124 of his brothers in arms. He wrecked more than 2 planes from goofing around. Once in Italy, he was flying too low and became entangled in electrical wires. It is said by his peers that he should have been stripped of his wings, but because his father and grandfather were admirals, he wasn’t.
Those who were imprisoned with him, said he cooperated with the enemy for special treatment. It is said he was offered an opportunity to go home, but refused when he learned that the other prisoners couldn’t. Now, this is told as if he was the only one given this opportunity, but that’s not true. I’ve heard numerous men who were imprisoned with him were also given the same opportunity. Furthermore, John would have been disowned by his family if he left those men.
Lastly, he gave the election to Obama. He would not fight. He warned Palin to not make rifts and blamed her for his loss. McCain never intended to win. He was there to make sure Obama won. He was totally in cahoots with Clinton and Obama and Trump knew this. This and all of the above are why Trump would never would acknowledge him as a hero. I hated the way Trump handled it, but it was the truth.
I really hate that I now believe these awful things, but nonetheless, I cannot abide lies or liars.

?!?! You say this and you want the people to believe you ?...and you say that you don't like lies and liars ? What you said it's a shameless lie !! How can you ever imagine that someone could run for the presidency just to give it to the opponent ?
Yes, he probably had a "pampered" youth, maybe he wasn't the perfect hero, but he proved to be man of honour, man of values and principles, man of honesty and integrity when he got to his mature age. And he really served his country. All these qualities you won't find it easily nowadays...you find just Trump going to play golf...
And one more thing: just look at the way how McCain went on his way towards his death with dignity and honour, and compare it with how many others were or will be able to do it (including Trump)...and you'll see who's real man and who's not, you'll see where is the lie you mentioned it so emphatically.
@@delilahrainelle7158 www.snopes.com/fact-check/john-mccain-fire-uss-forrestal/
@@oldfartinthenight9201 .... I’m aware of snopes, and while many things they post are true, they do miss the truth at times, and they are not right about John McCain. I know this, because I have personally spoken to TWO MEN WHO SERVED WITH McCAIN and WERE IMPRISONED FOR LONGER THAN McCAIN.
I used to admire McCAIN, I even participated in his campaign and voted for him as president. I believed the story that McCAIN was the hero among the men imprisoned, but I assure you, he was no hero.
It was reported that they would beat McCain until he was close to death,allow him to heal, and repeat the beatings. None of that happened. He did suffer broken bones and other injuries, but those occurred during his plane crash. He received care, because of who his father, and grandfather were. Trump went live and broadcasted the lies that the enemy told him to say. In fact, THERE ARE TAPES OF McCAIN READING THE PROPAGANDA GIVEN TO HIM. The prisoners who were really suffering, nicked named him the “HANOI HILTON SONGBIRD!” Fellow prisoners said McCain was given special privileges, and he worked in the officers home, where he was able to eat the same food served to the Vietnamese. They also said, young girls and women were regularly brought in to “service the officers,” and McCain had access to those females. The one thing that I read about McCain that greatly impressed me was being told that McCain was offered the opportunity to go home, and he refused it when he learned the other prisoners were not offered that deal. I was in awe of McCain for this. We were told that when McCain learned that the other prisoners couldn’t go, he courageously made the decision to remain with “His men,” and turned and crawled back into the “Hole.” When I read that I thought,”Oh my gosh,” what a courageous person. You might imagine how upset I was to learn that I had been lied to. It’s also widely known that the reason McCain’s refusal to go home it was not because the rs couldn’t, but because he would have disgraced his family’s name. That’s why he didn’t go home. It wasn’t because he was a hero who stood with his fellow prisoners. It was because he was afraid of his father and grandfather!.
And, if you don’t won’t to believe that, at least consider how poorly he treated Vets while he served as a Senator. There were POW’s who wanted their records unsealed and McCain voted them down. The Vets I spoke to said that McCain couldn’t allow the release of those records, because the release of those records would show that McCain was a phony and a liar. .
They ( ; DDR d🦧🍋
I'm a liberal Democrat but in 2000 and Straight Talk Express, I was all in for McCain. I miss this Senator to this day! He was and remains a good man.
what a genuine guy he is, he would have been a great President. Bless him and his family. America needs more of people like him, thinking about the People he served.
Lol yeah he would have got your kid to die in a dumb war 😂
@@jb894 Well put!
I’m a democrat but I strive so hard to be like John McCain. I have so much respect for that man and may he be in a valley of love, peace and light in God’s heaven
Well said & same here. He was a good & decent man & like I commented, how happy & proud he would have been of & for his friend Joe for winning the Presidency.
Yor fired@Jack Suvorov
@Jack Suvorov ha ha why republicans always seem to act like children it might be because of the baby orange
@Jack Suvorov I guess you missed McCain’s assessment of Ted Kennedy and Barack Obama. You invoke a great man and don’t learn from him.
"This guy, he served his country." - That you did, Senator.
Amazing man who served in so many ways and he impacted the lives of so many. God bless Senator McCain and his family.
2:25 The look John gives. It's almost like he's foreshadowing what's to come. RIP Mr. McCain
As often as I disagreed with his politics and policies you can tell he tries to do what he thinks is right for the country and rarely if ever keeping the focus on himself. He recognized the blessed life he had and he was grateful for it. He is a rare breed in government and he is greatly missed.
I was at the service with his family at a Baptist Church here in Phoenix, Arizona.
Joe Biden and other Democrats all spoke kind words at the service.
Rest in peace John S. McCain.
Been crying since yesterday. We will miss you, Sen. McCain. Such a a gallant public servant.
He killed 140 US sailors because he was a total ignoramus
John McCain is America's greatest hero rest in peace America's good honest heart hero and may God be with his family
There are Americans that have contributed even more to this country but I understand where you are coming from
What a wonderful man. He served our country. In Viet Nam, in the Senate,, on the campaign trail. We should all thank him for his service, and we should tell the President that he was wrong to say that he wasn’t a war hero. This man was a hero, he was captured and could’ve gotten released but he stayed with his men. I’m saddened that we’ve lost this man, and send sympathy to his family from my family.
A man with integrity and with true heart to serve his countrymen. RIP Sen. John McCain--From Philippines!
He HAD ZERO INTEGRITY his entire life and was a rotten person
Salute to McCain!
Im russian but John McCain is my hero. RIP ! Good bless your family and God bless America

What a brave man, God bless, My father died of the same cancer last month at 71, 😢😢
🌷
It's sad of Senator's passing. Thank you for your service Senator John McCain and may you #RIP. Great interview by #60Minutes and Lesley Stal.
Its feels great to see so many people showing the respect he deserves.
Thank you for your uncompromising stand and your service to ALL people!!!! May the peace of God be with yours during this difficult time.
Nothing but respect to you Sir.. thank you for serving our great Country with dignity and respect..🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
His body was so beaten and broken... Yeah, love and love of the American heal him
From Kenya,Africa.i recognise and salute this fallen general who gave his all to his country.rest in peace senator mc Cain
What an incredible being. Even while sick and having chemo, he had his staff trailing him! RIP Senator McCain. It was an honor to have you with us in our beautiful Arizona.
RIP John McCain I will pay my respect to you in D.C.
he is such a great and honourable man, he deserves all the respect.
R.I.P. Senator McCain & THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE 🇺🇸
Tynetta 'Ty' Runnels SERVICE OF TREASON? Service of war mongering? Service of meeting with and arming Isis?!! Service of evil?!
He served his country in the Vietnam war. No matter what you think about after, he did risk his life in our military, following a long line of McCains who served, including his father and grandfather. And he also has admitted he's made mistakes and would do some things differently.
@@cutiedoggy475 Regardless of how you feel, Sen. McCain and I share a few things-Veterans (HONORABLY Served), Fellow Legionnaires, and the date he came home in 1973 is very significant to my being; Bottom Line is...He PROUDLY Served the country in which we live, endured being held as a POW, for these things, please show Respect(as Ms. Aretha would say). Sometimes Respect can be verbal & @ other times, one should keep silent. FOR THE GOOD OF COUNTRY.
WAS HE A PIZZA DELIVERY MAN🤔🤔🍕🍕🍕🍕
That is so sad😨😨😨😨
Brother McCain gave me pride to have served in the United States Navy (1974). Rest well Maverick.
I have so much respect for this man. Rest in peace, Senator McCain. You truly had lived, loved and served your country faithfully.
Thank you for reissuing this video for the public to view on RUclips the interview after John McCain's passing. It was great to see him strong and confident as we all knew him to be. Thank you 60 Minutes.
Sweet and honest man, thats all that came to my mind when watching this interview🙏💖
May god blessed you, I am from Kurdistan, we love America
That’s how I want to go, lucid and active until my last day
At least he went there, and fought like a warrior, unlike someone who got out of it with money spent.
This man was a GOAT
Great interview senator John McCain was a good man who cared about his country
And he cared about slaughtering people in other countries too- for no reasons. Don't forget that part.
@@Will_Moffett I didn't know that ok thanks he was a caring person I bet he is in heaven a real class act
Bull.
LaDon Gibbs ask his ex-wife what she thinks that mean she waited on him and when she was hurt so severely he dumped her his character speaks for his itself
LaDon Gibbs ask his relatives of 134 man he killed what they think if he is strolling in heaven
RIP Sir ! We loved you , and we never forget what a beautiful things you have done for us and this country !
i salute you. john McCain ..rip
He was a man with horrible policies that I never liked
I wasn't born in the great U.S. and to me , John McCain is one of the greatest heroes ever in the history of the country ! ! ! How do you thank somebody that was a prisoner of war for so many years while fighting for and giving his best for his homeland ?
I hope there will be more people like him
Thank you for your service!
What a no nonsense, loyal, heroic, humorous, and driven public servant. Thank you for your service.
He's rejoicing with the Lord now!
Rest in Peace Hero!
We are praying for your family and I send my love and heartfelt sympathies to Cindy ,and family.
We love you all Mc Cain family!
For Meghan , we are sending healing thoughts your way.
Remember ,
Grief is the last gift you give your loved one.
I respect him so much knowing what he had been trough,may you Rest In Peace you will be remembered 😢😢
As someone who disagrees with most of his views on policy and religion, I can't overstate how much respect I have for this man. He was a true American hero, who stood by his morals and values, and sacrificed an immense amount of his own being to promote the respectability and honor of the United States. We need more John McCains, red or blue.
He looked good for his age. RIP Sir.
I watched this after Obama's 60 minute with Scott Pelly. What an honorable man.
This man's values and morals are to be admired John is truly inspiring.
Amazing Man... GOD BLESS YOU! I’m sure you are in heaven.🙌🏻❤️
What a man, we will miss him. RIP fellow veteran. Sending love to your family.
"This guy has served his country". What an inspiration! Despite all the things he has been through, he wanted to mention his country as First and Last.
I'm a Very Liberal European....but I RESPECT this guy tremendously. America's toughness personified
What an inspiration, we need more people like this man in the world. Not just the US.
My cousin's wife just passed this past August. She was diagnosed with 3 on August 4th & passed on August 29th, it went so fast, this is such an ugly, cruel cancer :(
R.I.P., Senator McCain, history will serve you well.
A great American and even a greater man🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🇺🇸
God bless you and thank you for service Mr. McCain, may you rest in peace. We will never forget your dedication and service to our country.
Rest In Peace John McCain🌹
Thxs for your military service💙
Country Over Party!🇺🇸
This world would be a better place with people like John McCain.
Sure loved that man, there will be no one like him ever again. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you HERO, our prayers to you and your loved ones, you are still serving our country from up above heaven.
Love him. His brain and wit
I'm not a Republican but I respected John McCain. He was an honorable and decent man. Very relatable and down to earth. May he rest in comfort and in peace🙏
You are truly a great man Mr McCain. RIP sir.
A great traitor who sold out the GOP for the favor of the Mao Dems
Thank you senator for serving our country. Your a true maverick.R.I.P.
Life is too short " we gat to move on ...rest on strong man McCain

mCCain was a man who stood for nothing and would constantly change his views and seemed to be nothing more than a puppet for the Military
God Bless This Man.
A True Patriot.
Lived and died serving his country.
Thats the care everyone especially my own mom and dad deserved. A woman of principles.
John can now rest in peace ... Arizona went blue ...
Damn. What a guy.
This clip has deepened my admiration of John McCain
What a wonderful human being he was. May God bless him.
God bless you, sir. You have been a good and faithful servant. We are better as a nation because of you.
How are we a better nation ??? Think before you make comments. McShame was a giant fraud and puppet of the War Industry
A true inspiration. Character and honor
What a great Senator
RIP John McCain!
What a great person you are Mr. Senator and a world Leader. I remember when you NYC for dinner in one restaurant I was waiter that place. You gave me five minutes to have conversation with you. Mr. Senator you are the greatest person I have ever meet. Thank you for service and we always gonna love you.
A true Hero who Loved His country. I am a democrat and I also Love My country.......I would gladly be John McCains friend. He was a True American with American values like Fairness and protecting the Constitution of this country!
AMAZING MAN!!!
What an incredible man

What an amazing human being!
Such a great loss 😔 Fly high Maverick our hero forever 😭
Thank you sir and may god bless you, and may you also rest in peace
Amer Ahmad what is wrong with you? Do you not have any idea what this man has done?!!! I MEAN COME ON THERES A PICTURE OF HIM WITH THE LEADER OF ISIS?!!!!!
My wife died from the same type of Cancer this past January. I know exactly what the family went through. As a guy who served while McCain was in the Navy, and I had friends on the USS Forrestal, this man will cast a long shadow that President Trump will never walk in. He represents the meaning of true patriotism and what investing something into the country means before you expect anything from it.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Trump is an abomination. He is a liar and a coward and a thief that only wanted the Presidency for his own benefit. McCain served the people and hopefully now, his life and death will impact more people into doing the right thing. He wasn't a coward or a draft dodger like Trump. My father was in the Air Force. Thank you for your service to this country as well sir.
Trump is President. McCain never was, nor will be. Own it.
Trump is the most disgusting excuse for a President in the history of this country. That pricks legacy will not even remotely compare to the accomplishments of John McCain.
John Fronza may she rest in peace
Trump is only POTUS because he ran against Hilary Clinton--probably as flawed a candidate as the US has had in decades. With those two as the two "main" party candidates in the race, it was either "death by hanging," or "death by firing squad." Those were the two choices.
And when those are your only two real choices, one thing is for certain: You're going to end up dead.
God bless you John McCain and thank you for your service.
Senator John McCain you are a true hero and a loyal individual to your people! There is no other like you! You will be miss! RIP
Rest in peace senator John McCain, you are a true hero of our great country, thank you for your service ..
What a man! RIP, Jonh.
Nothing but the utmost respect for this man who in life was nothing short of Patriot and hero.
The US has lost an irreplaceable son, may he rest in peace.
