You could really feel the tension at the table today.   And Joy has it right, MM has no sense of humour.

About the joke, they were talking about Trump calling into Fox and Friends today and more-or-less admitting he knew about the lawyer and the payout with Stormy Daniels.  Joy then mentioned that today was Melania's birthday and "Happy Birthday Melania".   And those 3 words caused MM to lose her mind, and argue the audience didn't even laugh. And Joy eventually told her she had no sense of humour.  And that maybe it was a bad joke, so "sue me".

@GHScorpiosRule , Buffy beat me to it. It was a tongue-in-cheek joke and Meghan snapped like a lunatic.

Of course she did. I wonder if it's because of her own personal experience with...infidelity in her family?

Social media is on fire right now over Meghan's outburst. I'm at my desk working but I was so startled by it I stopped what I was doing to look at the television.

It has to be that because it was totally out of fuckin' left field.

Whoopi is making sense today!

I agree with her about Obama - the same people complaining that he didn't do anything for black people are the same ones who got pissed when he talked about issues affecting the black community. You can't have it both ways.

Ben Carson proves that no matter how accomplished one may be, ya can't fix stupid.

I did not here a laugh because most people were probably like me nodding their head going  happy birthday you poor woman when I was startled by human car alarm.

I don't understand why Meghan pointed out that nobody laughed in the audience. So what??

Something is seriously wrong with this girl.

What I'd really like for them to do after today is keep some holy water handy in Joy's mug and have her douse McCain with it next time the brat's head is spinning.

How about a fire hose?

I loved Whoopi's take down of Ben Carson today.  To triple the rent for people who are struggling to pay their current rent is unimaginably cruel.  The rent people pay in public housing is approximately 1/3 of their income.  If you triple the rent as Carson has suggested, you are basically raising the rent to 100% of their income.

Meghan, if you want to look 40 pounds more overweight just wear a big floral print dress, put your hair in braids and add some hair extensions.

Oh wait, you did that today.

I wish when people talked about how Kanye is a big trump supporter now, they would also reference the well-known fact that he has recently spent some time in psychiatric hospitals, takes psych meds, and  has had breakdowns due to changing his dosages.   put his comments about trump in some perspective.  yes, we shouldn't be diagnosing him, but he does have a history that is pertinent.

Whoopi cannot be that confused or naïve to not understand why Trump and his advisors are now backtracking about things they said about Hillary Clinton and her being investigated when it applies to one of their own.

Thanks!  There was so much screeching, I couldn't hear what was going on.  All I heard was Joy saying MM had no sense of humor.  Which she doesn't.

I was hoping for more from Dr. Phil.  Kind of a boring show, all told.

Go Joy! she pushed back on  Megan.  She wants to take Joy down, so bad.. 

So unfortunate that Meghan keeps The View in the news.  We all want the news to be is that Meghan is gone.

That was too good though. Joy is about to unleash on her. Reading the comments on social media are hilarious. 2 completely different opinions that are stated so strongly that they would flip on at the drop of a hat if the parties were switched. Part of me wants Joy to keep it together, but it would be delicious to watch her rip Meghan to shreds. I want to see her flee the stage in tears, cussing out the audience and all the mean dumb people. It would be so good.

I watched the clip again and after Joy told Meghan that she has no sense of humor, she added, “that’s your problem.” ???? 

I am dyingggg at the comments on social media about Meghan McManiac’s meltdown over two words. I guess she likes embarrassing herself for the sake of making headlines.

I know most will talk about Joy and Meghan getting at it again (I feel like Joy really doesn't care for Meghan at all. But more than that, she was fine with everyone before, even Elisabeth, so it's crazy just how quickly Joy soured on Meghan)

Anyways, instead of talking about them, I just want to mention that Sunny's tea drinking game is still on point. She's truly my favourite part whenever Meghan and Joy go at each other.

I may be alone in feeling this way but Sara is starting to get on my nerves. She’s constantly explaining the other hosts and what they mean to Meghan. If she’s that damn confused and lost all the time maybe - just maybe - she needs to seek employment elsewhere?

There've been times this week when she seemed almost human. However, I'm not about to jump on the Meghan love train any time soon because I know she'll be back to normal before you know it.

Well , that didn't take long.

When Meghan joined the show, she talked about how honored she was to be sitting in Hasselbeck's chair, and referenced the split screen incident between Bitsy and Rosie.    She was hoping for something similar, and said she was ready to do battle with Joy (I don't recall her exact words) She wanted a "moment", an epic takedown of Joy that will live forever, that will be her legacy, and Meghan might want to leave the show at some point, but she does not want to leave until this happens. 

I believe that she was trying for that today -  saying Joy was MEAN!  that she told a joke, "but nobody laughed", and then saying they should walk back their comments from yesterday about liking Melania, since now they're attacking her.  

Meghan, I think, wanted that to be HER moment, her time to take down Joy for being a mean old liberal hypocrite.  It backfired. 

 

(though, judging by The View clips I've seen on YouTube, I bet there will be a clip titled "Meghan McCain DESTROYS joy Behar over mean joke!")
 

That's true, which is why she always goes after Joy. What she doesn't understand is that the only reason that split screen happened was because Rosie wasn't feeling it that day.

I'm in the minority, but that moment was all Rosie's fault, since she brought a personal matter on the show. The thing is, and what Meghan doesn't remember, is that Elisabeth and Rosie got along before that point. Elisabeth started opening up more and I believe they visited each other's places too. They were kind of like friends before this point, which is why the conversation was emotionally heated.

I agreed with Rosie's point and didn't feel like she should have been attacked by Fox, but she shouldn't have brought up on the show like that. After this, Elisabeth took a nose dive for the worst since people didn't take her seriously for her views.

Meghan needs to be more like Jed and Ana and even Paula in saying their piece and respecting different opinions. That will get her more jobs in the future, instead of being laughed at for not taking a joke.

Joy has been a little subdued since Meghan’s outburst.  I wonder if she’s reached her limit with how much she’s willing to put up with.

I worry about that every day.  With Meghan's obvious support from ABC executives and Whoopi's constant shade at Joy...I wonder how long she'll take it.  I wish I could think of some secret message or inexpensive gift (all the same) we could all send to show our support.

Thanks for the refresher, I had forgotten that she came locked and loaded.  This explains why she is always ready for a fight; she has a plan.   The biggest, baddest hawk on TV wants her day to be exalted by her peers.    Ta Da!

She will take it; it doesn't bother her as much as we may think.  She loves this job and will not walk away.  She said "I got my job back"when she returned after being fired by Barbara years ago.

Joy knows what’s up, imo.

The blow up will come courtesy of Whoopi, imo.

MM is trying too hard. I dont think she'll get her split screen unless she does something.... well.. IDK what.

I wonder if Joy knows that MM is actively trying to get Joy fired. 

Joy could shred MM in a heartbeat. I wonder why she doesn't. However, the , "you have no sense of humor" was a good start.

Rosie had said after that happened that the behind the scenes people had to have known there was going to be a blow up because it takes advance notice to produce a split screen on TV.  

So unless someone behind the scenes is in Meghan's corner I don't see it happening.

How can she not?  Jan Levenson just posted above Meghan's husband's website seems to be gunning for her.

If ABC were to choose Meghan over Joy I think people would storm the studio.
