Meghan McCain Says She's 'Exhausted' By Democrats 'Crapping All Over Republicans' About Racism

The View's Meghan McCain has some strong feelings about the country's partisan divide over racial justice. Mostly "exhaustion" at all the people who keep telling her she's wrong.

On a recent edition of The View, McCain spoke of the Republican-proposed police reform bill which many feel doesn't go far enough to stop police violence against Black Americans.


She said:

"I know I'm exhausted and the country is exhausted, to try to enact reform right now, and this is the best opportunity, as George Floyd's lawyer said yesterday on the show."
"This is the best time in history to do it, and I think we should all just come together, and please stop making this so partisan, because I, for one, am truly exhausted with it."

Twitter had very little sympathy for McCain, who seemed to be saying that America should accept whatever bill is being put forward, no matter the quality, because she's tired of talking about racism.

McCain also said:

"I think it's a good, noble start, this bill. I'm glad to see this swift sea change on bipartisan support of police reform."
"I'm really disheartened that we can't even come together to try and make changes, and I think some of the criticism you gave, Sunny [Hostin], is valid, but how about we all continue to try to improve instead of just crapping all over Republicans for saying we're doing nothing or it's not good enough?"
"This is a great, noble attempt by a senator on the Republican side, and I would like to see us put our differences aside."

Meghan also acknowledged the bill was lacking, but felt criticisms should end.

"Yes, all this criticism, Whoopi, you and Sunny, 100 percent valid. The chokehold thing is a big deal, I don't understand why that's not in it, either."
"Let's continue the conversation, that's why bills have amendments on the floor, and this is a bipartisan process. Please stop knocking Republicans this morning for some people not trying."
"This is an intense awakening for Republicans the past few weeks, and I don't appreciate that tease coming into the show."

Many people pointed out that McCain's exhaustion was almost nothing compared to the exhaustion of actually being discriminated against.



Many others were also exhausted...of hearing about Meghan McCain.



Many felt that if McCain's first priority was actually fixing these issues, she'd be prepared to hear about them fairly regularly for the rest of her life.


Passing a reform bill shouldn't mean the conversation is over.

Vance Blasted After Making Gaslighting Claim About How Tariffs Are Actually Helping 'Average Americans'

Vice President JD Vance was quickly called out after he claimed in a Fox News interview focused on President Donald Trump's tariffs that tariffs will actually lead to "tax relief" for Americans.

Vance spoke as Trump continues to leave countries reeling over his chaotic tariff policies; he just announced, for example, yet another 90-day pause on sweeping tariffs on China. The Chinese government said they hope the move will lead to "positive outcomes" for China and the U.S.

Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.

JB Pritzker Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Pushing His GOP Allies To Redistrict—And He's Spot On

Speaking on NBC's Meet the Press, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker perfectly explained why President Donald Trump is pushing for gerrymandered redistricting in Republican-led states amid pushback from Democrats in Texas.

Redistricting has been all over the news cycle in the days since Texas Democrats fled the state to avoid voting on a new heavily-gerrymandered redistricting map and to deny their GOP colleagues a quorum, the minimum number of lawmakers required to conduct legislative business.

MSNBC Fact-Checks Trump In Real Time As He Blatantly Lies About Crime Rates In DC

President Donald Trump is facing criticism after he was fact-checked by MSNBC in real time as he lied about crime statistics while announcing his decision to federalize police in Washington, D.C., and deploy the National Guard in an effort to fight crime.

Trump's announcement is a significant escalation of his previous attacks on the nation's capital, which he has repeatedly referred to as "crime-infested." He claimed in his remarks to the press that D.C. is “one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the world,” a claim at odds with Justice Department data showing that the city’s crime rate hit a 30-year low last year.
