They were on the spousal abuse dude in SHITLER's mob - the two+ instances, how he failed at security clearance yet given full access, how could KELLY NOT know, etc.
McCAIN started to give her spin, was going to make spousal abuse a non-partisan topic, saying, "As a Republican I'm offended by..."
And Joy broke in with:
"As a Democrat, *I'm* OFFENDED BY REPUBLICANS!1"
After a minute of back and forth, ALL HADES broke out!1 McCAIN went into her usual not-taking-crap-about-being-a-Repuke thing with the wingnut fury not seen since HASSELHOFF!
Methinks, La Megan ain't long for The View, and THANK YOU JOY FOR EVERYTHING FOR SO LONG!1tr

.... After a heavy sigh, Meghan said, "Well, you're offended by Republicans, so all Republicans, probably, and everywhere...(you're) offended by me sitting herebecause I'm a Republican!"
"I'm offended by a party that backs a racist!" Joy shouted.
"Oh, my God!" Meghan said. Joy continued to spar with her co-host, saying, "Oh, come on! Oh, come on, Meghan! Seventy-two percent of the Republican Party thinks he's a good role model."
"I'm going on The Van Jones Show on Saturday and I was actually looking forward to talking about this in a way that is respectful and not being told that just because I'm a Republican I'm offending you," Meghan said. "We're not going to move the needle one way or the other just throwing out platitudes and hubris like that. I would like to have a real conversation about it."
"Oh, really?" Joy asked. "Oh, really?"
"I don't know why you're sitting here saying you're offended by all Republicans," Meghan said. "I'm trying to give you my perspective" Cutting her off again, Joy said, "Because 72 percent of them are backing a racist and somebody who has abused women. That's why! That's why!"
"Do you know that my father was accused of being racist, and Mitt Romney was accused of being racist, and Jeb Bush was accused?" Meghan asked. Fired up, Joy replied, "Your father is not in the Republican Party of today, darling! Those people are not in today's Republican party." ....

Me too. I'm sure her father has encouraged her to do her "thing" but she will regret it.

I think you are right. She needs to spend time with her dad as he lives out the end of his life.

I don't think Porter was given FULL access. He was given access he shouldn't have had,

I saw that. She uses Daddy when it benefits her. The View definitely blew it by hiring her.
