4. He absolutely would have voted yes.

There's this weird and completely wrong mythology that McCain is some sort of liberal. He's not. He never has been. Don't forget that he voted against Kagan and Sotomayor. He voted against the Martin Luther King Holiday. He voted against the ACA in the first place, and his last vote about it was simply a giant Fuck You to Trump, not from any actual change of heart.

The list goes on and on. He never was a friend to Democrats, and he'd be gleefully trashing Blasey Ford and voting to confirm Kavanaugh.
