Meghan McCain blasts ‘crazy old people’ on ‘The View’

Pundit Meghan McCain, a former co-host of ABC’s “The View,” blasted her ex-colleagues after what she calls unfair comparisons made on the show about her and Hunter Biden, the president’s son.

“I can’t go like a week without something being said about me on the show,” she said during an interview on Michael Malice’s podcast. “The thing about ‘The View’ that I didn’t realize when I signed my contract is that this is forever … that I am going to be bullied and yelled at and abused and brought up years — I haven’t been on that show in years — and I’m just trying to live my life.”

McCain was referencing a recent segment on the popular daytime talk program during which host Ana Navarro defended Biden, the president’s son, saying, “Look, did Hunter Biden influence-peddle on his last name? Yes, he did. So did half of Washington. People sitting at this table did it.”

McCain in a social media post that day said she would explore a potential lawsuit against the show over the remark, writing she has “never been accused of a crime in my life and am a patriotic American.”

During the appearance on the podcast this week, she complained that she “didn’t know I’d have to deal with like these crazy old people yelling about me all the time.”

“I go whole months without thinking about them,” she said of her former co-hosts. “And apparently, I’m just on their minds every day. And it’s pathetic.”
