"The View": Week of 11/18/2019

[Tammee]

Starting now in the Denver market and its live

[Medicine Crow]

I over-slept & turned on the TV at 9:20 ... & there they were!!!  Live!!!  Love Jamie, but it was too short!!!

It was funny, and, caught everyone off guard, when Meghan said she wanted to be like Jaime Lee Curtis when she grows up and Joy said something like, "why don't you want to be like me, you little bitch?"

I think Sunny and Abby both delayed reacting until Meghan laughed.

Joy's home video about the lasagna making did not include mozarella!   How can you make lasagna without moz?  In an older video from The View where she's teaching Sherri to make it, she did include the moz.   Did she change up the recipe or just forget that most crucial ingredient in the newer vid?   I know they all rave about it, but it really doesn't look all that special; especially with all the layers of noodles and thin layers of sauce.   I adore Joy - and she's Italian, so what do I know - but that video fell flat.

p.s.  i found the videos online, not from the show.   But from all the lasagna talk, I had to look it up.

Is Whoopi doing the Sister Act or Stand thingy?  Is that why she wasn't on today?

[blondiec0332]

When the View went live today Meghan and Joy were arguing about the impeachment. If Meghan hates Trump so much shouldn't she be happy with how things are going?

[Cementhead]

I don't think she's physically capable of being happy ..... about anything. 

[Snapdragon]

I'm so over them discussing the debates.  Every time, it's the same thing.  Joy talks up Biden, Sunny talks up Harris, Whoopi talks up Yang, Meghan complains that one of the candidates has no business being there and Abby (as always) just exists.  They're all so biased (with the exception of Abby...who exists) that it makes discussing anything that went on during the debates pointless.  

[Lifesabeach]

No new show here on the west coast today.  I am a big fan of JLC too,  will have to check YouTube.

Lasagna issue for me:   I Iive alone and I am perfectly happy with the single serving Michael Angelo lasagna (and the eggplant parmigiana is good too).           6 minutes in the micro and viola, add a salad, and ‘dinner’.  Secret is a good red wine 🍷.  I do have an excellent recipe from my sister but it takes 2 hours to make.  By that time I might have had “some wine.”  🤪

[bannana]

Show aired for me in the Canadian market.

MeAgain was on a pundint rat-a-tat-tat shriekfest about how none of this matters, she predicted Trump would win, she's been told before he will be led away in handcuffs, it didn't happen, it won't happen and then finally she YELLED at Joy:  You are not listening to me, you are not listening to me. She then snarled at Joy that the important thing is the electoral college and Joy is not getting it, and Joy replied that it was created to save slave states.  MeAgain, exasperated, muttered, oh for god's sake.  Joy was quite jovial and MeAgain was crazed during this part.  This article covers it:

https://www.foxnews.com/media/meghan-mccain-joy-behar-naive-trump-impeachment

MeAgain also said something like none of the Dem candidates on the stage could beat Trump.  But wait, what about Biden.  No one asked her about that.

Abby did a long-winded thing about how wrong all of the Ukraine stuff is, and one of them said, maybe MeAgain,  but is it illegal.  Sunny had to point out once again that it does not need to be illegal for impeachment.  Sunny also said several times that Trump would be impeached but that the Senate would not convict him.  In spite of this, MeAgain kept shrieking how wrong they were.

The bit with Jamie Lee Curtis was very uncomfortable because there is no doubt that JLC thinks MeAgain is an idiot.  But she was kind to her, MeAgain gushed over her and reminded her that she was the first guest after her father died 🙄 and maybe she identified with her so much because they both have famous parents.  Joy then informed that audience who Jamie's parents were and said something like they were the biggest celebrities, which I took as a bit of shade at MeAgain.

MeAgain did say today that no one  hates Trump more than she does, and Joy corrected her.  Also it think it was about the lasagne, MeAgain whined about it again, and Joy said I will give you lasagne if you give me your guns.  I hope I got that right.  

Abby's hair was very shiny, but she looked good.

All of Meghan's  fawnings over famous people always end up just being long, awkward humble brags. If she eliminated "I", "me", and "my" from her vocabulary, she would have nothing to say.   Oh, and also "father" and "whiskey".

[deirdra]

Good summary, bannana.  Joy corrected MeAgain's Trump hating, saying she (Joy) is his #1 hater.

Yessss. Especially Whoopi, she doesn't even make sense when she talks about Yang, she just makes a bunch of meaningless statements.

The full episode is on hulu.

Meghan was so obnoxious doing her whole I know better than you pundit spiel. She kept saying we have been here before with proclamations of we gotta enough to get Trump. And Sunny had to correct her more than once. The issue isn't whether he did something illegal.  It's whether his actions are impeachable or not. Abby said she considers it an abuse of power. If Meghan can't acknowledge that then clearly she hasn't been paying attention.

Glad to hear this!  I'd never tried the brand but it was on sale (maybe $2.99) and the freezer door had a tear-off coupon for fifty cents.  I have a couple in my freezer...lasagna and a couple of other dishes.

The show came on for a little bit today, but I thought it was a re-run because Jamie Lee Curtis was just on the show a little while back, wasn't she?

And I'm going to enjoy all her tears.

JLC was Megan's first guest after Myfather died, which of course Meghan pointed out and made it all about her.  I would have liked to have heard more about what Jamie is up to.

It was a rerun for me from last season.

[2JEWELL]

MeAgain set the record today (yesterday, DVR) with her fast and furious talk about the Republicans, and “for me”... I wish someone would push back at her when she shrieks about the Mueller report, the smoking gun, trump being led out in handcuffs.... the Mueller report was conclusive - MM didn’t read it.  I don’t remember anyone saying he would be led out in handcuffs (other than Meghan), other than joking and wishful thinking.  And her comments on the impeachment hearings are nothing but her own thoughts.  She is not an expert on anything- except herself.  The “30,000 cast of characters” were experts on Russia, career military and Ambassadors. Did she not listen to anything they said?  She is insufferable!

She is acting the same away about the impeachment  Just because nothing is being done about what Trump has done/been accused of doesn't mean it's a waste of time. What does Meghan think should have been done when the whistle blower became public?  Ignored?

And if (and please God when) Trump loses next year I want Joy to get in Meghan's face and say I told you so.

I remember during the 2006 midterms Rosie O'Donnell was co host and and she needled Elisabeth Hasselback about a lot of Republicans losing. It was glorious to see EH put in her place.

[lusinia]

Meghan was so rude/unprepared to be reading her notes and adding to them at the beginning of the show when Abby was talking.

Meghan said something when everybody was talking, after Sunny said the president doesn't have to do something illegal to be impeached, and neither I nor the closed captioner caught it, but Meghan said "illegal" again when she was pointing to herself.  Did she say something like she thinks the president should only be impeached if they've done something illegal?  She gets to determine on her own what the Constitution says?

Meghan - "Let's be intellectually honest" - ha!

Also Meghan - "One of the things that I pride myself in is that we can't get too sucked into the beltway and the media circles".  What?!  I honestly have no idea what exactly she's priding herself in (on) here.

(And she thinks everyone should listen to her, dammit!)

Sunny's being disingenuous when she says Buttigieg is polling at 0% with African Americans, as if there's only one poll and that's it.  While polls do show low support for him from African Americans, they usually show a number higher than 0. 

I have never, ever heard any news referred to as "iconic".

She would love to be part of that crowd. She wants to be invited to parties and have people ask her what she thinks.  It must kill her that Ana is living that life.

[Haleth]

Sorry, Abby, but some of us did watch every moment of the hearings. (I know far too many did not though.). If she’s frustrated she needs to realize that the impeachment will occur.

Re the Hurd clip, I think he’s protecting his family from crazies.

Sheesh, Meg and her nightstand Constitution. Wow, let her speak!  But she doesn’t let anyone else speak. 

”We have to go to a commercial” complete with eye roll. She sure knows how to dish it but can’t take it. 

Edited November 22, 2019 by Haleth

[GoldenGirl90]

Meghan has the Constitution on her nightstand y'all, so don't you dare lecture her about it!

Freakin' weirdo. 

Meghan asks people to let her finish her comment, but she's interrupting Sunny and Joy, constantly. And calling the clapping for Sunny "a cheap applause line." She's insufferable today, holy shit.

[MeThinkMeNot]

Meghan isn't having a good time in the first segment. She's getting in fights Sunny, Ana and Joy. She's asking people to let her speak while interrupting everyone. Abby felt bad and tried to help, but Meghan isn't happy.

[rickhurst3186]

Meghan needs to realize that she keeps making her family "fair game" for White House attacks.  She should not have any complaints when they are attacked now. 

[dr. gailey]

Fuck Abby and NutMeg. If you can't admit they are laying out evidence for a crime and still can't admit these people know more than an art history major cause this is their job, I don't know what to say. This is why I don't ever feel sorry for NutMeg when her father is talked about cause she still defends everything he does.

Same here. My sympathy for her ran out a long time ago. The way she defends a man who has disrespected her father repeatedly is sickening.

So Meghan is getting an attitude with Abby, too? Jesus. Who shit in her coffee this morning? Maybe she's hungover?

And in the same breathe that she says she doesn't like gender politics, she asks the table if they would vote for a Republican woman President? Smh. She's just loud and wrong today. 

BTW NutMeg, Elise Stefanik is catching heat because she's spreading lies and conspiracy theories, not because she's a Republican.

Dear Meg, AOC isn’t on the Intelligence Committee.

Abby comes off better because she's not that smart. So when she says she's confused but sees that this is impeachable then it helps me understand why others may be confused or lack the knowledge to get what's going on. Plus, when she gets shut down she takes it in stride and can still joke with the ladies. She's like Jed and Paula in that sense.

MM is just combative and likes to play party lines. She already told us that she sees politics as winners or losers which is why everything is black and white.

Edit: case in point of the difference is when Ana made the used condom joke. Abby just laughed and Meghan was offended.

Quick observation....We've all heard Megs say thousands of times "he's a friend of mine", "she's a friend of mine ", "one of my closest, dearest friends", etc...But, can anyone name one person that they have HEARD say "Meghan McCain is a good friend of mine "?

The bolding is mine.   I think the difference is that somehow Abby felt "left out" and not as smart or accomplished as her siblings...and she has those stories of sitting alone.  Meghan on the other hand was (apparently) the perfect little princess and encouraged in all things (ALL THINGS!) by her father.

[Medicine Crow]

Poor Meggie, she's SO above & disgusted by all that condom & porn talk.  Hissy little bitch.

Oh boy, she’s steaming now. Did you see her face when Joy told her to shut it (missy) while she told her joke?

[rickhurst3186]

OMG I LOVE IT!!! Joy just called Megs "Missy"!!! I hereby declare Megs new unofficial nickname to be Missy!!! Thanks Joy!!!!🥰

It even has a nice ring to it: Missy McCain

Meghan cannot rationally and calmly defend what she says so she gets frustrated when anyone doesn't agree with her. She must have been one spoiled child growing up.

[GoldenGirl90]

It's worth noting that Meghan gets particularly moody and pissed off whenever Ana is there. Poor thing is triggered by Ana's very presence. 🤣

[2JEWELL]

And once again- Joy asks MM if she wants to add something (because she has been mumbling under her breath almost the whole segment) and she says “no, I’m good”.  And when Joy starts to move along, she has to bitch about Ana’s used condom joke.  What a miserable person she is.  I think she is infuriating.

[Haleth]

Wow. Meg’s nightstand is getting crowded. A copy of the Constitution AND a pic of Dolly Parton!  🤣

[GoldenGirl90]

Dolly just said Meghan is kind of weird for having her picture on her nightstand. So she has the Constitution AND Dolly's picture on her night stand??? I told y'all, Meghan is WEIRD AF 🤣🤣🤣🤣
