Ambitious James McCain tries and fails rewriting his father’s “legacy”
Jimmy McCain is back, publicly reminiscing about July 4th with his dad and urging us to donate to the McCain Institute Foundation, which no doubt will be a circuitous funding mechanism for his own campaign. These folks think trading on the family name possessing zero credentials,, is a plus. Most conservatives find this tactic abhorrent.
Jimmy, newly referring to himself as “James” (his middle name is Hensley, a tribute to his mother’s beer baron father, James Hensley who left most of his family well heeled), writes about “finding an old July 4th barbeque video post of my Dad’s from 2017 where he reminded us: “It’s important to remember that we enjoy the freedom to do these very things because of the brave men and women who sacrificed to ensure our liberty.”
This is blatant pre-campaign rhetoric if ever there was any. Jimmy/James even reminds us that he has young sons, and signs off with feigned chummy, “All the best to you and yours.” though he knows none of us and doesn’t care to. As a novice politician with a Hensley inheritance, he can well afford a knowledgeable campaign advisor. He needs help.
