constantly thinking about that thing Admiral Cain says to Maverick in his office:

"Yet you can’t get a promotion, you won’t retire, and despite your best efforts, you refuse to die. You should be at least a two-star admiral by now, if not a senator."

a senator.

a SENATOR.

you want pete "maverick" mitchell to run for public office? huh? is that what you want, cain? you're an even crazier motherfucker than maverick to even put that thought in the universe's head.

#the disappointing reality of what maverick's personal politics must be aside #....that's just a buckwild thing to say cain #wtf is your thought process there #sure a higher percentage of congresspeople are veterans than the normal populace #but going into politics is by NO MEANS expected or even common post-military service???#what exactly is it about maverick that makes cain think 'yeah. that guy could be a senator'#and why is it probably a disparaging thought for senators #as opposed to a compliment to maverick #anyway. wild #top gun: maverick #pete maverick mitchell #admiral chester cain
