John McCain, war hero, senator and former presidential candidate, dies at 81

John McCain was an American hero, and his life shows the world what it means to be a true hero. Many people do not know that US Senator McCain was an officer in the USA military when he was younger and was heinously tortured by the Viet Cong for 5.5 years. The Viet Cong were going to let John McCain go free, however he refused unless all of the other prisoners of war were also set free. This is what a "real hero" does and Mr. McCain continued to be an American hero his entire life. Anyone that had the honor to meet John McCain in person should have thanked him, including USA President Trump.
John McCain suffered serious injuries during his time as a captive of North Vietnam and can not raise his arms above his head. 
It makes my eyes water when I think about all the torture and suffering he endured to protect my liberty and freedom as an USA citizen.
So when President Trump said John McCain was not a war hero, I was very upset and would have kicked Donald Trump in the nuts if I could so he would have the experience of suffering and torture.
