‘The View’ Suddenly Cuts Away Just Before Chaos Erupts Between Hosts

Co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Meghan McCain of “The View” got snippy during a heated discussion over President Biden’s treatment of the press after his highly anticipated summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The argument, which revolved around Biden snapping at CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins after she asked him a question, erupted as Goldberg angered McCain by comparing Biden’s encounters with the press to former President Donald Trump’s.

“Part of my problem with the Kaitlan Collins moment is that just because Trump was so bad it doesn’t absolve Biden’s bad behavior. What he just did was 100% Trumpy,” McCain said after Goldberg asked for her reaction to Collins’ clash with Biden. “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.”

“Well it’s the press’ job to speak truth to power,” McCain said. “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.”

Goldberg turned the focus to Trump, claiming she never saw him apologize to any reporters, unlike Biden.

“With all due respect, I don’t care,” McCain interrupted, to which Goldberg responded, “Let me just finish what I’m saying.”

The two began arguing over each other, becoming more annoyed with each other.

“With all due respect, I don’t care if he’s apologizing. He just embarrassed himself. And he looks like Trump,” McCain said.

“I don’t care that you don’t care! Just hear what I’m saying!” Goldberg yelled, to which McCain yelled back, “Well I don’t care that you don’t care Whoopi, so we’re even!”

The show unexpectantly cut to a commercial with McCain and Goldberg appearing to have cooled off after returning from the break.
