Despite his hawkish national security positions, McCain takes moderate positions overall, and he has flip-flopped various times, most notably when he voted against repealing ObamaCare in 2017 when he made numerous campaign statements several years prior stating he would do the exact opposite. McCain also is a [[globalist]] on issues related to foreign policy.<ref name="McCainWhines">Newman, Alex (March 28, 2017).
