“Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said his role as one of the few vocal advocates for a U.S. military strike against the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad in Syria left him feeling isolated by his peers. ‘It has felt a little lonely from time to time,’ McCain said Monday on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe.’ But McCain said he was advocating for a noble cause, and pointed to former President Harry Truman, who endured a low public approval rating during the Korean War. ‘If Harry Truman had bowed to public opinion the world would be a very different place had we lost to Korea,’ McCain said.”
