‘The View’ Goes Off the Rails on ‘Racist’ Republicans: ‘I'm John McCain’s Daughter!’
In just a few minutes on Tuesday morning, The View managed to go from calm agreement about the overt racism of Rep. Steve King (R-IA) to a shouting match that culminated in Meghan McCain screaming, “I’m John McCain’s daughter, I am not someone who sits here and is OK with racism in any way whatsoever.”
Earlier in the show’s opening segment, the hosts all seemed to be on the same page, with McCain declaring of King, “I condemn him, he should step down, he’s a racist and he’s bad for the party,” adding: “It’s not hard.”
But things took a sharp turn when co-host Sunny Hostin asked whether Republicans in Congress will take the “moral high ground”—like Democrats did with Sen. Al Franken—and force King to resign.
