You know, you'd think I'd have been more aware of the politics involved there over the past 15 years...
(McCain was for deregulation, yes? That
seems like a generally Republican stance.)
As for Trump, part of me wonders to what extent he knows seemingly "outrageous" things he says will fly. I mean, he has to realize that quite a few Republicans (as opposed to Republican office holders, or what they can say publicly) weren't exactly thrilled with McCain, right? He seems crazy but there has to be some strategy here, though I can't imagine what he's doing would lead to him winning a general election. Pick up enough steam to gain inclusion in the debates (he loves being on the TV) and/or outlast other candidates? Perot got pretty far being crazy and spouting whatever the heck came to mind. Or maybe he's just looking to cash in on attention to feed his ego and figures this is a good way to do it.
