Yes  she had her serious pundint face on.  Or she's constipated.

I think she was talking about Roman forums, which were sort of central plazas in towns and villages, where the public was able to observe all kinds of things - good and bad that took place during ancient times and cultures.  At least, I think that is what she was attempting to reference.

(ooops....she said it again during Chris Cuomo's first segment!)  :-)

She was conflating Greco-Roman wrestling with the Roman Colliseum. ("Are we not amused?").  Two different things, Meggie.

Joy: What is this, Hate Jim Acosta Day?

Exactly, Joy. Abby and Meghan keep bringing him up and I love that Sunny said that he should just come on the show so he can defend himself. Meghan smugly says, "oh I would love for him to come on the show." Yeah, so you can try your ridiculous "gotcha" questions on him that he's smart enough not to fall for?

And she mentioned S.E. Cupp as being one of the good journalists on CNN. HA! She is NOT a journalist and Meghan only mentioned her because they're good friends in real life. She sucks so bad that HLN moved her from their M-F 5pm slot to CNN's Saturday evening slot. S.E. Cupp has a BA in art history from Cornell and a MA, I believe. Whatever though - she's not a journalist, that's the point.

SE has her own show on CNN which is terrible. 

Bring on Acosta!

Good grief, even the cross talk had cross talk during it today!!

Yes, I edited my original comment to mention how she sucks so bad that HLN moved her from their M-F 5pm slot to the one hour Saturday night slot on CNN. It's absolutely trash, I agree.

And yassss! C'mon PTP, bring on Acosta! He handles bullies for a living. Meghan is no match. 

[Jewell2]

Meghan has said before she can’t stand Jim Acosta because he makes himself part of the story. Again, with Meghan- pot, meet kettle.  There is hardly a day that goes by that Meghan isn’t part of the story of the View.  She is an attention whore.

[rickhurst3186]

Did anyone hear Megs say "we haven't got any time" to Sunny when she asked Chris what was going to happen with the shutdown?

[merriebreeze]

Love me some Snack and a half Chris Cuomo and the way he dealt with Meghan. He was answering Sunny's question, hadn't finished, when Meghan interrupts and attempts to change the conversation. Chris basically ignores her and continues the discussion with Sunny. That's how you deal with Meghan.

P.S. It's how you treat a toddler having a tantrum. Ignore the bad behavior and whining. Do not give in to her demands. Tell her she needs to act appropriately and use her inside voice and then you can "hear" her. (Learned this from my SIL who was a head start teacher for years and then an elementary school principal.)

She’s used that line from “The Gladiator “ before- every chance she gets

And also (Lord I’m full of complaints about today’s show!). Abby said in the beginning about the 2 things that happened to her today.  Some guy in a coffee shop made a joke, and she talked to her brother.

I liked Joy in Cuomo's interview, if for nothing but giving voice to what a lot of people see which is that even if Trump killed someone on camera like he'd said throughout the campaign, Senate Republicans would still not impeach him.

Just a clarification: It's the House that would Impeach, and the Senate that would convict. But your point stands.

[GoldenGirl90]

So Chris posted a pic of him in the dressing room and I just noticed the WiFi password is framed and visible, lol. 🤣

Kudos to you guys for being able to daily watch Megan the Megalomaniac. I try. Gawd, she's an awful screeching banshee.

The thing is that there are many people who used to post on here who no longer do and I think it has to do with Nutmeg and her nastiness. I have never seen somebody on television who is so miserable. 

[General Days]

I'm still only 8 minutes in, because I have RL stuff going on, and because Meghan keeps talking over EVERYONE (even her beloved Abby, although she's softer when she talks over Abby).

Also, that blouse is F-to-the-U-to-the-G, and it is cheap looking.

The thing is, Meghan could be 8 months pregnant now.  How could we tell?   Now I'll say something nice:  I thought she looked a little bit pretty today.  Her looks are so see-saw-ish.   One day she'll be fine, the next she'll be a hideous mess, then look quite fetching, then back to clown territory.   Which means tomorrow she'll be a hot mess.

 

Oh, if Meghan ever gets pregnant, we will know.

She will probably bring a sick bucket out on the set, and announce that morning sickness is terrible, and people don't talk about how terrible it is, and she's here to change that, and then she'll throw up on the air, and blame the Democrats and "people like" Joy.

[blondiec0332]

Meghan contradicted herself (big surprise).  When they were talking about the shutdown and why is Trump holding out for the wall Meghan said for the good of the country.  Just last week she said she was against the wall.

 

Also when Joy said Trump cancelled DACA Meghan said he won he can do that.  OK Meghan so after Obama won I'm sure you were OK with every thing he did right?

Lmaoooo Meggie gets mad at the audience yet again - and Joy encourages them to clap on, LOL! 

I caught that too! She's so petty and immature.

Why does she always, always look at the audience?? She's the only one I remember doing this on a daily basis.

[PradaKitty]

Did Meghan just say something about acting like adults?! 

Pot, meet kettle.  AND STOP SCREECHING!!!

And, while I kind of understood the point she was trying to make, she used the phrase incorrectly (again...).  The Greco-Roman culture was a period of peace and prosperity throughout the Roman Empire, lasting from 27 B.C. to 180 A.D. This time period provided the ideal conditions for the spread of Christianity. Greco-roman. An ancient culture that developed from a blending of Greek, Hellenistic, and Roman cultures. (copied from a Google search). 

I think she was talking about Roman forums, which were sort of central plazas in towns and villages, where the public was able to observe all kinds of things - good and bad, that took place during ancient times and cultures.  At least, I think that is what she was attempting to reference.

(ooops....she said it again during Chris Cuomo's first segment!)  :-)

You’re giving her too much credit. I think she was simply referring to a wrestling style. She’s such an idiot. 

[blondiec0332]

I can't believe how many times Meghan said Greco Roman.  I can understand her saying it once but to say it quite a few times without the producer in her ear telling her she was mixing things up makes me believe everyone behind the scenes hates her.

She's stated on the show before that she's used to being in an echo chamber, so when the audience claps for the person making a counterargument, she (childishly and pathetically) takes offense to it.

[Vixenstud]

Just once I'd like for someone in the audience to call her out on her rudeness....and on the air!

Of course she’s going to point out her friends SE Suck and Van Jones because she’s going to be on his show on Saturday. Leave Jim Acosta alone. I hope he does do the show just to shut her up. I  Still can’t fucking wrap my head around this lumpy dumb potato defending Trump in any way after all the obvious shade and total lack of disregard for her father!? 

This confuses me too. It's not like she is defending his policies,  she will say she disagrees with him on what ever crazy he is calling a policy , it's bizarre that when the other host start to tear him apart for his trash behavior,  his lies, his lack of empathy, she jumps to his defense.  Today she said "he won, get over it!" I cant remember what was being said but she does this often like she has to protect him. So strange. As you said Trump attacked her father and Meghan has said she dislikes Trump.  It's very bizarre.

Hey RBM, you are too old to have a face full of zits. Get thee to a dermo, TODAY.

When she said that, I think she means good for Arizona. Today when they were discussing where Trump should deliver the State of the Union address, she said  he should do something at  the Arizona border. Other states border Mexico, why only at the state she hails from?

1) I think her hubby plays a huge role 

and

2) I think she wants to separate herself from what she considers "Trump Derangement Syndrome" at the table (using the words I see from people who criticize the show - they accuse Joy of this in particular).

I wish that Sunny had said that just because Michael Cohen is not a good person does not mean he does not have useful information.  As a prosecutor, I am sure Sunny has had to use unsavory characters to nail somebody who had committed a crime. 

All the live long day!  When I started working as a federal prosecutor they emphasized that in closing you had to be clear that we don't get to pick our witnesses at "the witness store".  Otherwise they'd all be priests, nuns and choirboys (priests maybe not so much anymore ☹️).  But the point is, guess who criminals hang out with?  Other criminals!!!!  We don't pick our witnesses, the defendants do.  And that is exactly the point Sunny should have made about Michael Cohen.  He's not suddenly a good person, but he knows where the bodies are buried . . .

Which would be funny considering McCain is hands down the most deranged person to ever sit at The View table.

[bannana]

Re Abby, today she complained about not having had a chance to speak after Joy told her to wait until Sunny was finished.  Then when she finally got her chance, she told about someone at the coffee shop who wants to leave the country and move somewhere warm (WTF?).  And her convo with her brother who is serving in the military and told her the country has survived worse and will get through this.  No shit, Sherlock.

During the Cuomo segment, she tried to align herself with him citing complaints that he is a "both sides" guy and said that she also gets criticized for that.  He did not align himself with her.

And, just cause we know that Raw Story is NutMeg's favourite site, they posted this about today:

Meghan McCain shouts increasingly louder

Abby wants us to believe she sees both sides but all she does mention the other side and then plunk down on the right side.  And she seemed shocked that the coffee shop worker was thinking about leaving the country if things get really bad.  Of course that would never occur to her because things will never get really bad for her.

Get rid of the Preggo Chair entirely, which would mean getting rid of one host.  Since NutMeg is having more difficulty by the day climbing up onto her stool, I suggest she be the one to disappear.

It figures Raw Story would be her favorite site.  All RS does is gather, compile, reorganize, and <dare I say> plagiarize articles that have already appeared elsewhere in an attempt to make them look like original writings.  Hmmm...doesn't someone else in Nutmeg's family do something very similar?

It's a knee jerk reaction.  She can gripe all she wants but the minute anyone says anything derogatory about a member of her tribe?  She takes it personally and gets defensive.

Reading everyone's comments is simultaneously hilarious and migraine-inducing. The latter which is due to reading about Meghan's unrelenting childish and petulant behavior.

And, if I recall correctly, he also did not once mention Meghan's father - so, I'm guessing he will be on the top of Meghan's shit list, in bold, all capital letters from here on out.  (He and Jim Acosta may have to share the #1 space, LOL!)
