i knew them both, sam johnson much better than pete, but i knew both. peterson is a democrat, johnson a republican. is there anything about being in prison that makes you a democrat or republican? [laughter] >> i think that there was some resentment back in 1968 when lyndon johnson stopped the bombing. we assumed there would be some accommodation made for pows there was resentment about that and also i think that in the 1971-72. , there was much more in pertinent and help to the families that their happy before -- had been before. there was clearly more help for the families. but, as you know, military people have a tendency to be more conservative. >> we have a map, and chose vietnam. where was the carrier you were flying from? >> we were further north from that. we would have been very far. we would stay up fairly close. some of our bombing missions we would go on would be 45 minute missions. take a short drop and return. we sometimes stayed fairly close to the north vietnamese coast. >> i want to show the audience where this was. right and there, and

peteat peterson -- peterson is a democrat and sam johnson is a republican parent is or about being in prison that makes you a republican or a democrat? >> i think there's was some resentment when lyndon johnson stopped the bombing. we assumed there would be accommodation made for the pows because we were captured and then he stopped the bombing. there was resentment about that in the 1971 or 72 period there was much more encouragement and help to the families is by the nixon administration than there had been before. there was more help for the families at that time. military people have a tendency to be more conservative. >> we have a map and it shows end of china and vietnam. where was the carrier you were flying from? >> we were further north than that. -- they unfairly some bombing missions we went on shorebe 15 minutes to the and drop and return. because there was no threat to the ships, we sometimes stayed fairly no -- close to the coast. >> want to show them for perspective where it is. china is right here. you come down in your into the hanoi area. laos, and ife is you move ov

year-old mother, roberta mccain, tearfully continuing their goodbyes, as did republican congressman sam johnsonith one stop along the way, wolf, a pause at the vietnam veterans memorial. >> we have live pictures coming in from the capitol rotunda right now, the public still paying their respects. they're walking through there, waiting in long lines just to get an opportunity to say goodbye to a great, great american. once again, stay with cnn as we bring you more of the official tributes to senator mccain. i'll be back tomorrow morning 8:00 a.m. eastern for our special coverage of the funeral service of john mccain at the washington national cathedral. that would include eulogies from former presidents george w. bush and barack obama. erin burnett "outpru d"outfront right now. >>> outfront a key witness admitting he helped funnel an operation. tonight he's now cooperating with robert mueller. >>> a top official said he had trump, quote, over a barrel. >>> calls to impeach. will democrats listen? let's go "outfront." >> i'm jim sciutto in

so the degree of respect for sam johnson who serves in the house and a john mccain.t's absolutely unbelievable what he went through. and to have that perseverance and strength and fortitude throughout his whole career is uniquely player can. judge jeanine: i'm read being his early life. it says mccain's ancestors fought in the civil war within an ancestor captain william young served on the staff of general george washington in the revolutionary war. that's amazing. ed: literally generations of public service. judge jeanine: talk to me, jason chaffetz, what was he like when he wasn't on the senate floor? >> he was a person always in a hurry. there were a lot of issues he had to get up. he was funny, but he could also be crusty. we were at the capitol hill club and there was some reception and he was in the line and i got in the line behind him. i'm a flair new member of congress. i stopped him on the shoulder and said i'm jason chaffetz here, and he turned around and said i know who you are. he's poking me in the chest with his finger. then he wanted to talk about so

if anyone knows a sam johnson, he was a korea and vietnam bet shut down in vietnam. he spent seven years as a pow and one of the most conservative members of congress. i got to work for him when i was 16 years old. i have been blessed with great boss after great boss. i certainly put detaining -- put dick cheney and that category as well -- in that category. >> how do you pivot from worldssman and think tank into trade association world? >> for me, it is a big pivot. it is a freeit -- market organization, that helps. i don't think that is all that common in the trade association. theas with me believing in area, being around texas, you wind up there eventually. i'm proud up -- i'm proud of the work i do now in supporting the good causes. this week has been a huge week for american consumers. we have to get through to the end with this proposal because the administration has a preferred approach that saves $2000 per car. they also have these alternative proposals and you can bet over the next 60 days, the comment. , the left and a lot of other trade associations will

johnson's mentor. if you eliminate that, it would be the same as sam rayburn who would be the counterpart.e these as teaching lessons, but the idea is basically change -- lou: you oppose this idea of schumer said testing he recognized that the building will never be named after him. >> it will definitely never be named after him. the irony and again, no disrespect to john mccain at this point in time, but he is the third most unpopular member of the senate today. lou: i saw that poll. i can't recall who did the poll. another poll that i do recall, cbs news earlier this year. john mccain was more popular among democrats than among republicans. by the way, in both cases, he was underwater. that is more republicans viewed him unfavorably and more democrats viewed him favorably. >> he didn't fit the modern-day party. not just a trump party. he was basically antagonized a republican president with the exception of him being the nominee ever since he's been in the senate or the house. my sense is wish him well, do you see all the democrat and what have you that he was more closer to the democrat
