Meghan McCain hit back at President Trump early Friday morning after he criticized her father, the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), in a tweet. "Two years after he died, you still obsess over my dad. It kills you that no one will ever love you or remember you like they loved and remember him. He served his country with honor, you have disgraced the office of the presidency," she tweeted, responding to Trump advising people to "check out last in his class John McCain, one of the most overrated people in D.C." in an earlier tweet. "You couldn't even pull...

Having a leader who openly expressed empathy, compassion and love in moments like these that will ultimately move many voters. https://t.co/uHxKqdKYAH— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) October 22, 2020

"The View" co-host Joy Behar panned the idea that the media should "believe all women" who allege sexual misconduct and denied applying a different standard to Supreme Court Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh. "To me, if you say I believe any woman who makes any accusation -- if you say that, I think it minimizes our credibility as women, and then nobody's going to believe anybody at some point," Behar said. The co-hosts were discussing former NBC host Matt Lauer's full-throated attack on Ronan Farrow's reporting, which cited a woman accusing the former "Today" star of rape. That prompted Behar to...

Host Chris Cuomo and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo are being slammed for their lighthearted jokes during a discussion on coronavirus testing on CNN last night. During Wednesday’s episode of Cuomo Prime Time the governor recounted how he was tested for coronavirus on live TV during his daily press briefing on Sunday, leading his brother to joke he had a big nose and required a baseball bat-sized nasal swab for a test. But not all viewers were laughing over the brotherly banter. The View host Meghan McCain led the criticism on Twitter saying: 'I’m not sure I’m going to ever...

Meghan McCain's father-in-law misused his position in the Trump administration for private gain by capitalizing on his government connections to help get his son-in-law hired at the Environmental Protection Agency, investigators said in a report obtained by The Associated Press. The Interior Department's Inspector General found that Assistant Interior Secretary Douglas Domenech reached out to a senior EPA official in person and later by email in 2017 to advocate for the son-in-law, Eric Frandy, when he was seeking a job at the agency. Eric Frandy is married to Domenech's daughter, Emily. Douglas Domenech is also father to Ben Domenech, who...

"The View" co-host Meghan McCain criticized President Trump's response to the ongoing unrest, suggesting that he appeared to be "neutered" rather than providing strong leadership during the protests surrounding George Floyd's death. "So, I have been really sort of grossly fascinated by how neutered President Trump and his administration have been by this extreme crisis. He hasn’t given an interview, or an address to the nation," she said. "All he has done, as you pointed out, Whoopi," she told co-host Whoopi Goldberg, "was cross the street and hold up a Bible quite awkwardly which might work for some people in...

Tuesday on ABC’s “The View,” former second lady Jill Biden predicted “a lot of Republicans” would vote for her husband, presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in November. Co-host Meghan McCain said, “As you know, Republicans are very tribal. Trump says that he has a 96% approval rating in the Republican Party. He’s predicting a big win because of the silent majority, which we know from 2016 does exist. How can you counter what he’s saying?”

Meghan McCain, the co-host of the View and Senator John McCain's daughter, faced criticism Wednesday for expressing skepticism about National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease director Dr. Anthony Fauci, resulting in criticism from her cohosts and users in social media. KEY FACTS “I do not have faith and trust in Dr. Anthony Fauci the way that I did,” said McCain on a Wednesday episode of the View, explaining: “I’m the only conservative on this show, and I leave this place and all I do is consume conservative media, so i'm just trying to explain what conservatives are seeing.” McCain...

“I think he has every right to do any interview he wants and defend himself,” McCain replied, adding that “InStyle Magazine, a fashion magazine, sitting by his pool dressed like, you know, somebody in a Brad Pitt movie would not be the choice I would make.” McCain warned that Fauci is wandering into “dangerous territory” with the move to essentially become a cover model for the fashion magazine. The director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases was photographed sporting sunglasses by his pool for the digital edition’s cover. “Whether or not he wants to say he’s just...

ABC News’ “The View” returned from summer hiatus to kick off its 24th season on Tuesday and it didn’t take long for co-host Meghan McCain to declare she believes an anonymous report that President Trump mocked fallen American troops – but said The Atlantic should have warned her family the story was coming out. Co-hosts McCain, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin kicked off the show by welcoming former co-host Sara Haines back as a regular before quickly jumping into politics. McCain noted that it’s been interesting to see Trump shift his focus to “law and order” during the...

President Bush politicized adoption and my little sister - my family and America never forgot it (I never forgave). It is historically noted as a dark mark on American political history. Do not do to Amy Coney Barretts family what was done to mine, democrats. It won't end well.— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) September 26, 2020

Meghan McCain issued a stark warning Friday to House Democrats who were pushing for the impeachment of President Donald Trump. “If you take this kill shot, Democrats, you better not miss,” she said during the opening segment of ABC’s “The View.” .... “Oh, my God. I mean metaphorical,” she said. “I’m a hunter and shooter and I talk like a redneck, sorry, but I will say you have to successfully do this if you’re going to impeach him. It can’t be proceedings that don’t end up successful. Don’t take that the wrong way. I feel bad now.”

(CNN)According to Meghan McCain, "it shouldn't take a rocket scientist" to know who she is voting for in the next presidential election. "There's one man who has made pain in my life a living hell and another man who has literally shepherded me through the grief process," McCain said Wednesday night during "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen."

Megan McCain comments on Trump campaign ad: "I thought this ad was a kill shot."

"The View" host Joy Behar told Democrats to not tell Americans their plans for gun control and to wait to take away firearms until after they are elected on Monday. The panel was discussing the recent dropouts of the 2020 Democratic primary and who might be next after former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke ended his campaign on Friday. "Beto, when my husband told me he got out of the race, I think he’s actually like a beta test for why going so national and being beloved by the media is so dangerous," host Meghan McCain said. McCain said despite how...

An argument broke out on Friday’s The View, between co-hosts Meghan McCain and Whoopi Goldberg, over whether Bernie Sanders and other 2020 Democrats were pushing eugenics as a way to combat climate change. Whoopi fiercely defended Sanders, even claiming that the eugenics movement had nothing to do with minorities or birth control. “I’m not sure why people are upset with him,” Whoopi admitted, after playing a clip from CNN’s town hall on climate change where Sanders touted abortion as a worldwide means to cut down the human population. They highlighted a tweet from CNN’s S.E. Cupp calling Sanders’ idea, “eugenics.”...

After two days of hearings and one Democratic debate, the women of The View had plenty to talk about on Thursday morning, and they didn’t hold back. When Behar, filling in for regular moderator Whoopi Goldberg, asked the panel if Trump is starting to get nervous, the panel was split. While Sunny Hostin said that Trump “appeared to be coming undone” in a Wednesday press conference, Abby Huntsman insisted that he isn’t, as “90% of Republicans still support this president,” and they likely will “until you can point to a crime that the president committed.” “Baloney!” replied Behar. “They’re in...

Meghan McCain noted the sharp shift among independents to being now against impeachment, before touting retiring moderate Republican Congressman Will Hurd’s remarks Thursday, that Democrats have not made their case for an impeachable offense. Sunny Hostin tore into him as “complicit” in “enabling the President.” As Huntsman echoed Hurd’s point, Behar snapped: “They have really brainwashed you. They have brainwashed Americans into thinking he didn’t commit a crime!” she ranted. From there, the conversation descended into chaos, as Huntsman asked why Democrats couldn’t just vote Trump out in 2020. “Because impeachment is provided for in the Constitution!” Hostin declared as...

On Monday’s episode of “The View,” Whoopi Goldberg repeatedly told co-host Meghan McCain, the lone right-leaning voice at the roundtable, to “stop talking.” Goldberg blew her fuse when McCain attempted to talk about how at least half the country feels about the partisan impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump. As was to be highlighted by McCain, polling post-impeachment inquiry has only spelled trouble for Democrats looking to take control of the White House in 2020. Discussing the political ramifications of impeachment, McCain attempted to give a “conservative perspective,” though she was talked over by co-host Sunny Hostin. “Let me finish,”...

"The View" co-host Meghan McCain commended Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, on Thursday as the congresswoman faced criticism over her decision to vote "present" on impeaching President Trump. "I was watching the impeachment process when I got home last night and I too would not have voted for it," McCain said. "And I actually think Tulsi Gabbard has absolute balls of steel to vote present because that's what I would have done if I were her as well." Gabbard skipped the procedural votes in the morning and just as the first vote on impeachment for abuse of power was winding down,...
