What he just did was 100% Trumpy, i think I would just like a little intellectual consistency. If Trump had done that, we would be screaming at the top of our lungs in one way or another. Meghan McCain Well, it’s the press’ job to speak truth to power, just because Biden has gotten a pass so far, which he has and continues to do, it’s in no one’s best interest to treat him like it’s state TV. Meghan McCain With all due respect, I don't care if he's apologizing. He just embarrassed himself. And he looks like Trump, i don't care that you don't care! Just hear what I'm saying! Meghan McCain The problem I have is this woman is doing this internationally. And if anyone just saw Vladimir Putin’s recent speech when he met with President Biden, he’s using the propaganda that America is an irredeemable craphole against us, saying, ‘You think your country is so great over there? … You don’t even treat your people correctly,' at the same time where he’s literally imprisoning people. Meghan McCain I’m just going to rip the Band-Aid off, I am here to tell all of you, my wonderful co-hosts and the viewers at home, that this is going to be my last season here at ‘The View,’ this was not an easy decision, it took a lot of thought and counsel and prayer and talking to my family and close friends, and, you know, look, COVID has changed the world for all of us, and it changed the way I am looking at life, the way I am living my life, what I want my life to look like, and when I said ‘goodbye’ to all of you in the studio, over a year and a half ago, I had just found out I was pregnant. I left the city very quickly because my OB/GYN wanted me to leave because he wasn’t sure how COVID could possibly impact pregnant women. Meghan McCain I think you can call it whatever you want because your influence in the Republican Party is almost zero, and again, as I’ve said on this show, it is for us to figure out amongst ourselves. Meghan McCain My other problem with this is I don’t understand why we all can’t have shared experiences in this space, or have our own stories, because for some reason my relationship with the flag isn’t allowed anymore. My love of the American flag, my love of the national anthem. Meghan McCain There is an oppressive climate of judgment in public life these days. And I worry that whenever people feel censored, it breeds animosity and discontent.

Meghan McCain My dad's cancer and my miscarriage, it's not politics, it's not ‘The View,’ it's not like Arizona. It is a miscarriage. Women talk to me about miscarriages and people talk to me about cancer. Meghan McCain I just don’t have the kind of time that I used to, i'm in the car and grocery store, I'm going for a walk with my daughter and I can put my earbuds in.

Meghan McCain There's one part when I was talking about reliving the moment that my dad passed and I had to do it like, I mean, like eight times because I kept crying, i told my editor, ‘If you want to keep the emotion, you can.’ Like, it's sad, it's so hard to talk about. It's still hard for me to relive and that s--t is real and honest. And people, even if they don't like me, I think they respect that. Meghan McCain When I interned at ‘Saturday Night Live,’ do you think I got that internship just because I was like, the best intern? No, my dad is friends with Lorne Michaels. There are a lot of doors that have been opened for me. There's a lot of people that will want to talk to me because my last name is McCain. Meghan McCain So the biggest gift that Republicans have ever been given is the term 'defund the police.' And let's make it very clear: Republicans didn’t come up with that.
