Anna Navarro. The View. Saying what needs to be said! 👏

If you hate The View, fine. If you hate Anna Navarro for being Republican, fine. If you hate McCain or Meghan or whatever, okay. Let those lie there for a minute. Because this is what needs to be said.

You are correct! The rest of the Repugs will shy away from criticizing IQ45 but they are more than willing to ride his coat-tails as long as he keeps them in good favor.

We must remember, the Repugs are ALLOWING his madness to continue. Vote him out - they lose their "wall" (ironic, isn't it, they're hiding behind "his" wall!). Vote them out, we stand a better chance to have a true working democracy.

It is NOT just IQ45 - it is ALL OF THEM!!!!!

VOTE THEM ALL OUT!!!!!!

trump wanted federal aid for luxury housing. McCain stopped it. I'm sure trump has held a grudge every since. Every day I wake up hoping somehow trump will be gone by the end of the day. repubs are afraid of trump. They know if they don't go along with trump, he will get a trumpster to primary them. They would rather let trump destroy our country just so they can keep their seats.

"How can you impeach the best president the United States has ever had?" with that quizzical look on his face.

I keep hoping someone like a White House lawn press reporter would have the stones to yell back, "Because you're an assh*le, that's why".

Sure, he or she would be booted for the rest of Trump's dictatorship, but be welcomed back with open arms when the Democratic president takes the oath in Jan 2021.

Take one for the team...please.

They criticize him, but fail to accept responsibility. He will be disposed of like trash, and they will pretend that he never existed.

I watch parts of the View sometimes, but for some reason, I've never seen her, and I don't know about her. Didn't know she was Republican, even.

I have nothing against her, or moderate Republicans, generally. Reasonable people can disagree on issues. It's those dangerous, psychotic alt-right and Trumpers that I can't stomach.

McCain was a flawed but decent man. Can anyone imagine spending 5 1/2 years in a North Vietnamese POW prison, surviving daily beatings and near-starvation, and yet still retain most of one’s sanity?

.....to put the safety of the nation one heart beat away. Two words: Sarah Palin.

Obama himself said that Palin set the table for Trump. He made an unqualified, uninformed, sub-intelligent, reality-TV type personality an acceptable choice for President.

After he picked her, there were many shots of him standing behind her staring at her butt and legs. Feh!

McCain was as unscrupulous as any other Republican--except he actually did serve in the armed forces. He has no pass from me or anyone who remembers all the vectors that lead to this Trump mess.

They have never stood for anything but power and money. They have no values. They simply see that Trump will determine if they get re-elected. Period, end of sentence. If he becomes a liability on the way to donor money, power and election, they will turn on him on a dime. On a penny.

Let's not dignify their behavior with "cowardly". They are calculating money mongers.

the Republican leadership to be Americans first. They are cementing a place in Hell with their silence. Tyranny reigns when good people do nothing but watch and hope. When they are on the express to Hades they can have my thoughts and prayers.

I can only hope that the Exalted Orange Beloved Leader sees this himself, but since it was pontificated by a woman, signs point to “no.”
