Montini: Fallen hero read McCain’s 'courage' book. Show it, senator. Dump Trump.

source: AZCentral

...
Now, Capt. Khan’s father tells CNN Tuesday that he and his son considered McCain a hero.

He said as well that last book his son read was McCain’s book “Why Courage Matters: The Way to a Braver Life.”

He's right.

Courage matters.

Taking Trump head-on by refusing to back the Republican nominee would be a huge risk for McCain, personally and politically.

But it certainly would be, as his book title suggests, the way to a braver life."
