"The View": Week Of 7/16/2018

[Haleth]

Before we get into tearing everyone apart, Meghan looks nice today. I like her dress. And I love Whoopi's tunic.

[Ladyrain]

Holy crap.  How many palms did Meggie grease in hair and makeup?  She looks beautiful.  Whatever the cost, it was worth the money, Megs.  Keep it up.  It's bad enough that I have to listen to your hateful, screechy voice; when you look hideous on top of that, I can't handle it. 

[Ladyrain]

Hey, did you know MM knows soooo much about Russia and geopolitics because of her father?  Yup, she just told us.  Because we had no idea whatsoever who her father is.  And she prefaced that statement by saying she 'hate(s) to make everything personal'.   Well, Miss McCain, if you paid a fraction of the attention you claim to what your father says, and if you'd think - really think - about what he endured for this country, you wouldn't be such a prissy entitled ass.  And this is coming from a dyed in the wool Democrat, but I will never ever discount, ignore or ridicule what he sacrificed in the service of his country; my country. 

[TheGreenKnight]

Meh-gun opened her comments by saying she doesn't suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome or whatever buzz word she's using. I wouldn't say that's so, Meh-gun. I think you suffer from Trump derangement when you're whoring out your morals and your principles defending what is indefensible nearly every day you're on this show.

Yeah, that was a "spew coffee on the monitor" moment. 

[Bronzedog]

Meghan seems to be working hard trying to be liked today.  Also, Megs, my father and brother were both CPAs but I can barely add and subtract.  Being related to someone does not give you an innate knowledge of what your relatives know, i.e. Russia and geopolitics.

[rickhurst3186]

I really miss Meredith.

[geekburger]

This show has always licked 50s you-know-what. No idea why.

[Wings]

That’s it, get Meredith back, I don’t think she has a steady gig now.  Get rid of MM and Whoopi.  I don’t have a Huge problem with Whoopi as many do.  She just isn’t sharp anymore and has become cranky and glib.  Her valley girl affect is disrespectful because she only does it to mock the person or topic at hand.  If you don’t like fluff just remain quiet.

 I posted a few days ago about Meredith's new game show gig. I don't think she'd want to come back to this mess and who could blame her.

[rickhurst3186]

$1000 says not a single one on the panel has EVER seen an episode of POWER.

[Bronzedog]

Sunny and Sara are always so good with elderly guests. That 103 year old woman is amazing.

[GiveMeSpace]

I was done with Fifty Cent when I saw him making fun of Terry Crews for being sexually assaulted. Cancelled. Permanently. Won't even listen to that birthday song on my birthday anymore. Fuck that guy and The View for having him on.

Where's the petition to replace Meghan with Miss Ida?

[rickhurst3186]

Ha! That Honorary ESPY award could replace Megs.

Meghan has a degree in art history.  If she wants to be considered an expert on something then she should have a job related to the degree her parents paid good money for.  Her wanting to be an expert on politics, military, whatever is just her being lazy.  She wants the benefits of nepotism all the while denying it by saying she has been in politics her whole life and was a military brat.  Her father has been in politics her whole life.  Her father was retired from the military by the time she was born.  I find it funny she hasn't said she has been in beer distributing her whole life.  Her mom owns the biggest distributor in Arizona.  I guess that doesn't get her a job on TV.

I don't even think it's because of the way The View is now so much as the way the news covers The View. Meredith said as much before, but the way The View has the crosshairs on it the past 2 years is on a whole other level. I don't blame her either. Meredith is such a nice person, and you get put through the ringer--often undeservingly.

I thought she looked amazing, but I was still shocked the lady at the end was able to get down and do push-ups like that at 103. She's taken great care of herself.

[OnTime]

In case anyone didn't know, Meghan is a republican. 

Why does she says this every single day?

I think it was more ignorance on his part, than him being malicious. Society has problems reconciling men being victims of sexual assault. It is why, it is underreported. Men are afraid to look weak and soft. In 50 cent mind, where he comes from, a big, strapping, man, like Terry Crews, should have taken out that guy, full stop.  I think that Terry was not only in shock, but, he was mindful, of his position, in Hollywood. The powerful producer knew this and  had the temerity to sexually assault him, in front of Terry's wife.   Who does that? Predators usually attack their victims in private away from prying eyes. This guy did this vile act, in a room, full of people, at a party.  Sexual violence is always about power, rarely, is it ever about sexual desire.  Perhaps, if they had been in the streets or somewhere, private, Terry would have beat the shit out of him out, consequences be damned! So, I will give 50 cent, a pass on this one.  It is why I feel that people should not tweet every thought that comes into mind. Some things should be kept off the internet.

She is also knows everything about sex trafficking because her mother does so charity work on it. I think she said last week she knows more than any person should. 

I hate the term Trump Derangement Syndrome. I hate that MM acts as if the other women are crazy to be upset everyday by Trump. As if they are nitpicking his presidency.  Everyone is beyond disgusted by the Trump/Putin meeting but MM acts like her disgust is more valid. 

I made a comment yesterday about the show trying to make MM likeable.  I didn't watch the show yesterday but read that she hooked up a child that has brain cancer with Taylor Swift tickets  (meeting ).  Someone said it's just them showing MM do something nice not trying to make her likable.  Maybe you're right. I just feel like when MM  has a meltdown of some sort we are treated to a sweet daddy story or a friendly guest  or the other hosts tiptoeing around Princess entitled snowflake. Like said I didn't watch. 

Yeah, I skipped 50 cent his absolutely disgusting treatment of Terry Crews turns my stomach.  I'm assuming the ladies didn't call him out. He's also as dumb as a box of rocks.

No no no Meghan.  You do not now get be outraged by Trump's behavior.  So this is your line in the sand?  Children in cages?  No problem.  Dismantling the ACA piece by piece? No problem?  Alienating our allies?  No problem.  Disparaging your father?  No problem.

For her to act like this somehow angers her more than anyone else is the height of arrogance.  Meghan you stupid twit millions of people have been shouting from the rooftops Trump didn't have America's best interest at heart but you were too busy explaining his base to us and saying please understand their concerns about our future.  Well Meghan honey I think you just got a glimpse of what our future is going to look like and if you don't like it you only have yourself to blame.

[Medicine Crow]

I was neutral about 50cent until he mocked Terry.  THEN, I saw this house he wanted to sell on Million Dollar Listing New York.  The house is ridiculous & anyone that would buy it needs therapy!!  See for yourself.

[maggiemae]

Unfortunately, I can not get behind MM. Happy she is outraged in the moment. But imo it won't last. Shouldn't she be explaining why trumpsters are still supporting him? Yesterday should never have been such a shock to her.

Yet here she is all about Trump Derangement Syndrome and gas lighting, pulling daddy in and bragging about being an expert on politics, everything Russia etc.

Pick a lane MM.

Yesterday she tweeted about the girl meeting Taylor Swift 3 times in addition to on the show. And it was all me, me, me - I did this! BTW - notice who is not making a production of it - TS.

and the Eastern and Central time zones didn't even get the View yesterday because of 45's live presser.  Oh well MM, almost half of America didn't see your staged/planned random act of kindness.....(and I don't WANT to see it either).

I hurt myself clapping for Joy and fighting fascism. We're of the generation that is wtf with Trump. We've learned nothing.

Do you ever notice she never actually explains anything about Trump supporters. She will talk about why they voted for him (I have my own theories). But, when asked like today Sunny asked her how she thinks his base will see this,  will this change anything for them? She ignores the question completely even after sunny went back and asked again , nothing . She's done this a few times. She wants to explain them to us, well then explain Meggy.

I want the Big Baby balloon that flew over London this past weekend, to be brought back over here, and follow 45 from speech to speech to speech. Heheheheh stalked by a balloon!  (just kidding LOL!) Seriously, it could go on forever, just like The Dead! Can play games with it, a little volleyball, some badminton, it could be the the dot on kareoke songs, follow the bouncing orange balloon.  Omg its endless.  Whoever (whom?) had that created is bloody brilliant!

...snip snip...  same here, I lost a lot of respect.  He did explain himself and told the whole story.  He said it before he talked to Terry and got the whole story.  Then he understood, and regretted his shade.  Take it for what you will, but i did appreciate him saying it

I think she waiting to see which way the wind blows.  If she says this will have no effect on his base's support and it does have an effect she looks like an idiot.  If she says it will have an affect and it doesn't she will look like an idiot.  So I think we can conclude Meghan doesn't want to look like an idiot.  Too late though she already does.

I think we all know but cannot post it because it hasn't been mentioned this week.  Joy did mention it previously in relation to a story on the news.  It will come up again.

I was touched by the concern the show showed for yesterdays viewers who had to miss it because of the pre-emption. No need to worry , you can still get all the deals of the day today.

You're probably right. I also think she doesn't really know anything about his base. She loves to tell us how the Demonstrates didn't care about this group of people and that they left them out blah blah blah. That's really the only thing she repeats. She loves to scold the dems and basically says, see you didn't care so it's your fault we have Trump. And that as far as it usually goes. She never explains their mind set as to why they over look vile disgusting behavior.  There is never really anything new just the same ol' BS she keeps going back to.

Using nicknames or snide words to refer to the President is considered personal politics and your post will be removed, and warnings are possible.

[Onceafan]

Can someone explain to me why 50 cent is on the view, and why they are asking him about the Metoo movement, and sexism is rap? Yes, let's ask the man, who mocked Terry Crews when he was brave enough to come forward with his own story. Yes, let's ask 50 cent, who has been excused by multiple ex girlfriends of domestic violence. The man who avoided jail time, by pleading down, and plead no contest to the vandalism of his ex girlfriend's place, after his massive brawl with her. The man who famously said in his playboy interview, "“I don’t like gay people around me, because I’m not comfortable with what their thoughts are" then when he received backlash, he came out and said he supported gay people, but then continues to use homophobic slurs when he has a beef with P Diddy, and uses them on his instagram page.

Yes, let's ask the man, who tweeted things like "Im a get me one of them bitches from a third world country. At least she won't have high expectations. Heres a clean glass a water baby lol.", and a lot of other sexist tweets about sexism is rap.

I'm sorry but I do not understand, why the entertainment business seems to allow some celebrities a pass, and others lose everything when they have a history of this type of behavior.

Whoopi would not change her role because she does not moderate.  She can continue announcing the segment content and cut to commercials.  

I think Whoopi would go for this if the producers would explain that she can eat and drink all she wants to...as rudely as she pleases.

[Vanderboom]

I still managed to roll my eyes at Meghan bringing up yet again that Obama ridiculed Romney over saying that Russia was the biggest geopolitical threat. In 2012, the remnants of al-Qaeda were more of a threat. So the man isn't psychic, Meghan. It's not like Obama could have prevented Russian tampering or yesterday's shit storm summit.

I loved the tunic on Whoopi! It made her look human, not like a pile of laundry with a head. Seriously, she looked great in it.
