As usual, Trump is best at tearing up deals and not so good at the work involved in developing a better deal.....
McCain supported repeal and replace Obamacare
What he voted against was repealing Obamacare and offering nothing to replace it
As far as I am able to see this from Germany the honorable Senator John McCain saw the problem that president Donald Trump did not offer a better alternative. This problem exists in many irreversible decisions of the Trump government. Sometimes the USA is only able to be a loser in long term of many of the short circuited decisions of Donald Trump as for example the INf-treaty and other problems of stability.
He made for example a very short time ago the president of Serbia to a public fool, when he had combined an economic agreement of the USA between Serbia and the Kosovo (¿Why is the USA doing such things?) with the decision that Serbia agreed to accept to move its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The president of Serbia seemed to know nothing about this, he was totally surprised when Trump suddenly said so. The strange thing: This decision is bad for Serbia, it is bad for the USA, what Trump had done, and it is also bad for Israel - but Trump is doing so on reason to show that he is a good businessmen, who is able to manipulate the fine-print in a treaty. Donald Trump is a slob, who shows that no one and nothing is for him important, what other people say and think.
Trump thought healthcare was easy and he could just turn to Republicans and tell them to come up with something better than Obamacare. They made little effort to coordinate a deal and came up with a plan that was laughably bad.
After that disaster, Republicans just went with .......Repeal Obamacare and trust us to come up with something better.
McCain wouldn’t go with it
