Credibility is not only about who says it, but at least a bit about what they say, right?

If McAfee said the moon is made of cheese, I’d call that less credible than McAfee saying he’s going to get suicided.

Right, it's about both. "The US government is gonna suicide me" is not a statement I would believe coming from the average person, and given McAfee's statements/claims/drug abuse/tax evasion/etc I would say he had less credibility than the average person.
