Meghan McCain on Tuesday suggested that Olympian Gwen Berry’s protest of the American flag could serve as anti-U.S. propaganda for Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to Mediaite.

During an episode of ABC’s "The View," the panel discussed Berry’s protest of the flag, in which the Olympic hammer thrower turned away from the flag and placed a shirt over her head as the national anthem started to play. McCain agreed with the criticism Berry has received in recent days.

During her remarks, “The View” co-host referenced remarks from Putin blaming President Biden on the recent problems in the U.S. during their summit in Geneva. McCain called this a “national security risk.”

Unfortunately Meagan is right. Putin and the Chinese are already using the DemonRATs’ propaganda against us.

True, but apparently the point of the thread is to insult McCain.

"Unfortunately Meagan is right."

She should have been more worried about her father being a traitor.

How Putin might use this isn’t exactly the primary concern. Putin could use images of Meghan McCain as propaganda to show how Americans are obese.

Putin spoke up for the human rights of the Jan 6th detainees currently rotting in DC jail cells.

How is that considered using propaganda against us?

Yep. We’ve already been bitch slapped by both China and Russia over the fake Black Lives Matter. They flipped the tables on us.

Her father was a traitor before she was born. He squealed and others died. Maybe she needs to push a button like her father did on the Forrestal.

He’s saying that we have no room to criticize Russia for their human rights violations. He’s basically right. That is an excellent use of propaganda.
