John McCain was always fair.
I honestly think that's why he had trouble fitting in Washington's scene over the past couple decades. He stood up to his own supporters when they claimed things that weren't true, even when he was running for president. He was one of the last of a dying breed.
Even the fact that he was a war hero has gone out of the greater public appreciation in the last couple of years. That used to be one of the things we could count on being looked on with favor, but sadly, McCain had to watch that crumble too before he passed.
The world is already a lesser place for his absence.
