McCain is considering leveling the View because her opinions get mocked.

She needs to get a thicker skin.
When you put out political opinions, get ready to hear it. Right now my YouTube channel is getting mocked by some conservative site. Am I crying about it? No. It's all part of putting your voice out there.
And I'm personally happy that they are because they post my videos on their site and it is sending my off site views way up. Now if they would go on YouTube and post comments, I'd be even happier because the number for advertisement seen would go up, and that's where the money is.
But my point is, when you say your view , get ready for backlash. Because we live in a country where people can have their views, their voice, without fear of being jailed or killed for it if it's against the party in power.

Solely by virtue of being part of the lucky sperm club is disturbing enough, without even digging into her pathological narcissism.

I dislike her as much as I dislike trump. Her voice, like his, turns my brain to instant irritation. I have no use for any of the Republican princesses. They do more harm than good for women's issues.

Sounds like a plan that could work.

Meghan would say less nonsense and not get mocked as much.

She could still get a paycheck and more people would like her. !!

Can I? Can I say something?!?

She is the epitome of privilege and the power of celebrity. Part of what is wrong with the culture.

I don't like her politics or that of her late Dad, but I know what she is going through. She needs calm time away from the glare of tv and social media. Once she is on the other side of the grieving, then she can re-enter public life.

She was grieving her loss even before he died and I know how she feels because my dad was lost to cancer and was my best friend.

But her emotional outbursts aren’t helping her or the audience at all.

I wish they would replace her but read that ABC top guy loves her, I do hope she quits.

People love watching a trainwreck I guess. She is not doing herself any good by staying in the public eye now, someone needs to get to her and convince her to just shut down the public stuff for a while. I too hope that she quit and go back home and just drop out of sight for a while, that really is the best thing that she can do for herself right now.
