Meghan McCain Calls Out Former ‘View’ Coworker Joy Behar for Her “Evil” East Palestine Comments

 

Decider  "She’s long gone from The View, but former co-host Meghan McCain still couldn’t help but chime in on a conversation from yesterday’e episode. McCain — who sat at the Hot Topics table from 2017 through 2021 — spoke out on Twitter shortly after Thursday’s show, where she blasted Joy Behar for her comments about East Palestine, Ohio Trump supporters.
During a conversation about the toxic chemical spill that took place in the Ohio town earlier  this month, Behar assigned blame to former president Donald Trump for his role in the incident.
“ 'I don’t know why they would ever vote for him,” Behar said on Thursday’s show. “He placed somebody with deep ties to the chemical industry in charge of the EPA’s Chemical Safety Office.”. . .
. . ."She then looked directly into the camera and pointed her finger, saying, “That’s who you voted for in that district: Donald Trump, who reduces all safety.”
"Her words made their way back to McCain, who couldn’t resist firing off her own defense on social media. The former View panelist, who is now a columnist for The Daily Mail, retweeted a recap of Behar’s comments, writing, “The people of east Palestine are currently in fear that they and their children will be getting cancer or worse from the derailment toxins in their land and water.”
"She added, “This is just an evil thing to say. I would say I can’t fathom this level of cruelty and elitism but sadly… I can.”

Now word is getting out to everyone else: Blaming Trump for this mess, amid a slow response from the Bidenites, (and a fast one from Trump himself, who sent water and burgers to residents), is not working as a spin narrative anymore. It's falling apart. Seems the biggest train wreck here is the Biden administration's credibility. That's obvious enough in their 'blame-Trump' response.
