Meghan McCain Says 'The View' Crew Are Role Models of Decorum! Behar Quickly Mucks It Up
The View was engaged in Hot Topic Recycling on Monday. Putting the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem or denuclearization of North Korea were ignored in favor of more piling-on about the leak of White House aide Kelly Sadler insulting Sen. John McCain as irrelevant because he's dying, which was already addressed and universally condemned on Friday’s show. On Monday, Meghan McCain surely caused a few jaws to drop by saying if you don’t have role models in politics, well, “You got some on The View, with all of us!” [Applause!]
Because The View is America’s center of civil and rational discourse? Joy Behar blew that up within seconds.
Whoopi Goldberg read more criticism of the Trump White House from Mitt Romney and Sen. Lindsey Graham. Then Behar said “But where is Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell? Crickets from them.” Meghan McCain corrected that: “No, Paul Ryan did something very nice, blabbing my dad’s praises over the weekend.” She thanked Bernie Sanders and John Bolton, “who also said wonderful things.”
McCain summarized: “The thing I’ve sort of come to terms with, is we have to be the leadership we don't have now, and I always took advantage of the fact that we always had leaders and I always had role models in politics. We don't have that? Okay, you got some on The View, with all of us! Everyone in the room!”
Behar then spoke up, and quickly refuted that notion, by talking about fascism and the Klan, since somehow insulting John McCain is an example of racism/fascism? “Jon Meacham is a historian. He’s great. He’s wonderful. And he was talking about in history there have fascist, you know, tendencies in the country. There’s been terrible things, the Klan. You know, all sorts of bad things went on. What stopped all that was resistance and rebellion against it. So keep that in mind out there.”
From there, Sunny Hostin launched an attack. "The White House silence means that they’re complicit," Hostin said, and then said "we need to call out" Matt Schlapp, "a Notre Dame Catholic," for defending Sadler on CNN's New Day on Monday. Hostin said that if Schlapp walked out of Michelle Wolf's abortion jokes and insults of Kellyanne Conway and Sarah Sanders, then he can't defend Kelly Sadler. Don't forget Hostin said she and Don Lemon "cackled" throughout Wolf's routine, and the ladies were unanimous in defending jokes like hoping Kellyanne Conway had a tree fall on her.
(Somehow, The View didn't quite extend their outrage to Muslim comedian Kumail Nanjiani, who drew Meghan McCain's ire on Twitter for a weirdly vague tweet about how McCain didn't stand up to other racial/ethnic attacks. He later backed off.)
