Meghan McCain is upset over the fact that on The View, "sometimes the audience will applaud things"



Joy Behar said that the table never disparages Trump voters, only the president. McCain said that she knew that but sometimes the audience will applaud things.

“Now you’re blaming the audience?” Behar asked. McCain swore she wasn’t and brought up Acosta again.

“Yes, but sometimes I think conservatives and Republicans forget that the tone of all of this really began really, you know, several years ago with Republicans making statements that felt quite not-inclusive,” Goldberg said.

She said that from there the country moved on to President Barack Obama but then things changed.

A pundit? A spokeswoman for the repugs? Unfortunately, she does not have the knowledge base or grit for either of those roles. She is her father's daughter and that is her qualification. I once saw her flub an argument about Watergate and when the person she was debating pointed out how wrong she was, her defense was, "Well, that was before my time." If you're going to go on television and argue something, you better know the history of your subject. She doesn't and she is in over her head.

Which, given the politics of Arizona and her financial resources, she will likely win.

Megan McCain is so out of her league. She belongs on Fox TV and only on Fox TV. She needs to go back to Acting School.

She's gotten upset with comments the panel has made regarding Trump
and how she (Meghan) has to defend Trump.

Trump has been nasty towards her father who is terminally ill. It's all so weird.

But Megan must surely understand that if she wants an audience that fawns over her, she will need to move over to fox.
