Meghan McCain slams Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner's daughter's UN speech: 'This is why people hate nepo babies'

[demmiblue]

Meghan McCain — who famously repeatedly reminded The View audience during her tenure that she was the daughter of Sen. John McCain — has slammed nepo baby behavior in response to Violet Affleck's recent United Nations address.

In a since-deleted X post (screengrab below), McCain targeted the 19-year-old daughter of actors (and former couple) Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner over a speech the teen made to the UN on Tuesday in New York City.

"Every single thing about all of this is why people hate nepo babies so much," McCain, 40, wrote in the post, which was only public for a matter of minutes before the former View cohost and conservative political commentator took it down.

McCain — who lists "nepo baby" in her X bio — continued, saying that she felt Violet "has no business speaking at the UN," adding that "what she is speaking about is patently absurd."

1. The irony is lost on her

[FalloutShelter]

9. Irony is dead.

Haven’t you heard?

[BannonsLiver]

2. Her global lack of self awareness continues to be a great source of amusement for me.

Her father would be deeply ashamed at what she has metastasized into.

3. glass houses

4. Meghan McCain is the female version of Trump

[Autumn]

5. Most worthess nepo baby says what?

[sheshe2]

6. Your father would be ashamed of you, Meggie.

[SheltieLover]

13. That was my 1st thought

[sheshe2]

14. My guess would be her mom as well.

Meggie is one hateful person.

[ananda]

7. Violet Affleck is very courageous...

for speaking out about post-viral conditions.

I don't know what virus she had contracted,
and she is doing fine now; but it's nice to
see her bring attention to the problems
people face with Long Covid.

[RockRaven]

8. She is certainly the expert on deservedly hated nepo babies.

[Skittles]

10. Meghan would have no problem if Violet was a rightwing hack

no indeed

[Emile]

11. I bet she gave a better speech than Trump's.

[synni]

28. My anus gave a better speech, when I farted 10 minutes ago

[Cha]

12. TY & Violet Affleck! What a beautiful

Young Woman she has become.

Poor Meghan McCain.. that Didn't happen for her.

[meadowlander]

15. If anything, her famous parents are working against her. I'm sure plenty of 19 year old Yale students

get a chance to "address the UN" as part of internship programmes, etc. and nobody gives a shit. Greta Thunberg got to address the UN on climate change when she was 16.

"Being addressed by promising young people" is one of the relatively few functional things that the UN accomplishes these days.

[Deuxcents]

20. COVID, and now long-COVID is a global health issue that has repercussions from the pandemic.

Addressing the UN about this matter makes sense and kudos to her for her courage and leadership

[SSJVegeta]

16. She wishes she had half the honor of her father

And resents any child that emulates the best of their parents. Because she still hasn't learned how to.

[WarGamer]

17. The Onion? Borowitz?

[BigmanPigman]

18. Meghan who?

Is she still around? I guess her fragile ego needs attention again or perhaps her bank account is getting low.

[Clouds Passing]

19. Like Meghan's not nepo

[comradebillyboy]

21. Did you know her father was John McCain. /s

She's been grifting on her fathers corpse ever since he died.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

22. Pot meet kettle

[Golden Raisin]

23. Cluelessness to the Nth Power from

the Empress of nepo babies.

[question everything]

24. Why should anyone care for her opinions? Because of her birth?

[Coventina]

25. I burst out laughing.

[wcmagumba]

26. Mag-hen, you need more edumacation...

[LyfeTimeDem]

27. Ain't that rich?

[Wiz Imp]

29. McCain's simply jealous because she's never been invited to give a speech before the UN
