"The View": Week Of 1/21/2019

[rickhurst3186]

That is why Megs acts the way she does, super insecurity. 

[TheGreenKnight]

Now a meltdown over cactus/Arizona-shaming. Lord, this woman is so pathetic.

[Coffeewinewater]

🤣🤣🤣 Meghan is so damn childish wtf was I watching? She was so upset about what Ana said about Arizona and that stupid cactus.  I missed Colin Quinn  I have to watch it on hulu. Love CQ. 

Lol, Abby saying, as soon as you get to Arizona the cactus calms you 😂😂😂🌵🌵🌵

Meghan’s insecurity is always in overdrive whenever Ana is there.  And yesterday- when she made that comment about how the audience just wants to throw tomatoes at the Republican- it really pissed me off!!  I can name several conservative hosts and talking heads that I like and respect. I’m a big fan of Nicole Wallace!!

And the look on her face when Ana made a joke at her expense!!!  

Also, Abby is sitting right there--she's a Republican, too--and nobody boos her when she talks. Take a hint, Meghan. It's not about your politics.

She's so insecure and this show definitely showed it. Girl cannot take a joke. She's prickly alright, just like her cactus. 

They love making fun of her, she should just let it roll over her tight bra straps and get over it.  Up close, I saw her back straps and they were on tight and she had rolls sticking out. I think they try to camouflage her with bright, shiny, frilly, fluffy ugly blouses.  She should try more V neck necklines. 

[Coffeewinewater]

What did Ana even say I couldn't make it out? Whatever it was it pissed Meghan off , I like that.

Ana was repeating that Colin Quinn basically called Arizona a litter box of cactus.

Yes, especially since she has no neck and is all head & shoulders.  Buttoned up to the chin, tight, shiny blouses with ginormous brooches and shoulder decorations are the last thing she should be wearing.

Lol, that's hilarious. Ana was right she was making Colin's point. She really has no sense of humor.  Joy asked to repeat the name and Meghan is "no no I'm done." She also said  Ana was so nasty, does she watch herself? She is beyond nasty to her cohosts.

What is she talking about? Who shames her on the show about not having children? Alway the victim of her making.

And she has no waist.  The way they dress her accentuates her boobs to the point that it looks like she carrying a watermelon under her clothes.

Megan still has a bitchy nasty tone and her word salad is even worst today, I had no idea what she meant when she said that she is part of the born swamp people. Can somebody clue me in on what she meant. 

don't ya know~ her mother was pregnant with her during her father's campaign. she's been in politics her whole life~ she's a political analyst~~   lol

i think trump refers to people with a career in politics as swamp people.

Don’t usually make fun of appearances but here’s Meg doing her best 1960s middle aged housewife impersonation.

I often don't like the patterns or accessories on her View outfits but I think a big misstep with her styling is that even when it looks nice or decent when she's walking out, a lot of thought doesn't seem to be put into how the look reads when sitting down. I don't consider Whoopi stylish but she always wears super loose clothing so when she sits, her profile doesn't reveal anything, but Megan tends to wear close-fitted clothing (which I think is perfectly fine) but I don't think it's fashionable to be wearing clothes that simply don't fit well (whether it looks too tight or too loose). You can wear a fitted outfit and not look like a stuffed sausage fighting for air. Know your size and fabrics...doesn't automatically make you fashionable but at least your clothes won't make you look uncomfortable.

I love how Colin Quinn just ignored Meg's "I love social media" comment. Uh, yeah, Meggy, and you are part of the problem you bag of farts.

Can we add this to the list of prospective new titles for Meghan's thread?

[RedheadZombie]

Love Ana's red hair.  The only Al Cardenas I could find is Joy's age.  Is that Ana's fiancé?  What's wrong with Ana "fucking" her boyfriend/fiancé?

I think she meant that professional politicians like herself (eye roll) are what Trump called swamp people. 

 

 

Another eye roll moment. 

Ugh, ABC news breaking in. 

Pretty much.  She was saying Trump's claim that he was "draining the swamp" actually meant he wasn't surrounding himself with people who are experienced in politics and know campaign rules.  Her father would have been a "swamp person" so Meghan automatically claims the title as well.

[HaaCHOO]

I think Meghan has a new bra (or 100 new bras exactly the same).  Those babies are riding so high they're cutting off her windpipe.

[pachebo]

a day late and a dollar short, but on thursday's show, when i saw Meghan's "costume de jour", all i could think was "Little HORSE on the Prairie" and Nellie Olsen all growed up.

Yeah, but I gotta wonder why Meghan had to say that she and Ana rarely agree on anything when they were talking about Roger Stone. Ana may not like Trump but policy wise, she's still fairly conservative so I'm not sure what Meghan is talking about...

I think it was just another slap at Ana for not being Republican enough in Meg's eyes.  Note that she also had to validate what Ana said, because it's not the truth until it comes from Meghan's mouth.  "This is legitimate!".

I'm pretty sure Nicolle Wallace no longer considers herself a Conservative.  She has disavowed the Republican party.  Her show on MSNBC is must-see TV for me.

Hee.  That power bra, along with the super tight skirt (and probably the industrial strength Spanx under it) are helping to propel all of her "stuff" upwards when she sits down.  Like RHJunkie said above, they dress her to walk but not to sit.  And so when she does, all of her bits & pieces are all stuffed and squashed upwards towards her shoulders and head.  This is what my dear Newfoundlander step dad would call "a dog's breakfast."

This reminds me of something I thought earlier in the week.   If Whoopi really DOES have a line of clothing, perhaps she should ask Meghan to model.  Meghan would love being asked ... and she might see how comfortable those rags and bags are.   Meghan has NO IDEA how comfortable and freeing lose clothing is.   It might even ease her into a better personality.

[Haleth]

Hey, RHJunkie, stay warm with your -1o and WC -16o. Pretty chilly here in IN too. 

I don't usually knock a person's appearance unless it's a ridiculous clothing or hair choice, but Meghan has really gained a lot of weight lately. I'm sure it's a symptom of her grieving process.

Nicole Wallace is one of my favorite shows. She was wasn't my cup of tea on The View but she shines discussing and dissecting politics.  

Speaking of finding what you love to do. I was watching Frankie and Grace on Netflix last night.  And they gave a young character the advise "dont stay where you dont want to be. " I wish someone would tell  MM this. I know she's hell bent on proving she's a swamp creature,  a political analyst in politics just like her father.  I have never seen a more miserable person than Meghan McCain on The View. She's only seems happy when she talks reality shows and drinking.  Go follow your dreams Meghan,  you dont need the paycheck you can tweet about housewives and visit Andy Cohen's clubhouse (he seems to like her) and get drunk. Follow your true calling Meghan.

I wonder if she could breathe (snarl) new life into "Real Housewives of New York City."  Andy would give her that job in a second if she expressed interest.

[bannana]

Sunny was a sneaky instigator today when she ever so nicely said that she didn't think a cactus counted.  NutMeg was already offended by Ana's reference to her pet cactus being in the litterbox that is Arizona.  Then Abby tried to smooth things over by talking about the healing properties of cacti.  Throughout it all NutMeg was huffing and puffing, pouting and shouting how this was supposed to be a fun topic and they were being mean to Arizona and cacti and her.

I thought it was interesting that NutMeg said she doesn't agree much with Ana, that preamble is usually reserved for socialists, democrats and Joy.  When Ana first came on the show during Nutmeg's tenure, NutMeg talked about how she was so close to her family and to her dad and they were on the campaign trail together.  What happened?  Hmmm....

When NutMeg finished greeting Colin Quinn she had to climb her spanxed self back on her stool.  So she came around to the front of it so we could all see her in her full glory.  She had trouble getting up and getting situated.  Why don't her multiple producers advise her about these kinds of things?

And that is why she will never join a Real Housewives show.  As much as Meghan likes to talk about being in a military family she will never venture into hostile territory.  For all her bluster she is not someone that could survive in that environment.  On the View she has Whoopi and producers to protect her when things get heated.  That would not happen on RH.

Look at how offended and angry Meghan gets with people who are quite professional with her and often don't push back when she behaves like a child and interrupts everyone. What the hell is she going to do when Bethenny Frankel gets a hold of her? Bethenny seems like the cast member she'd try to kiss up to and become friends with but at some point, she's going to feel the 'brutal honesty' of Bethenny Frankel and the only question is whether we'll see her a sobbing heap on the floor or if she'll have the self-control to wait until the cameras are turned off before she cries ugly tears because someone was mean to her.

I have a feeling that Betheny's worldview does not align with Megan and Betheny will have her for a snack.  Megan may think  that Andy Cohen will protect her, but, Andy is all about the Benjamins and the fame.

Wow!  MM really can't take a joke!!  I'm originally from Arizona (that's in Middle America in case you didn't know - Ha!) and I thought what Colin Quinn said about Arizona was funny!  In fact, I have a cousin who still lives there and he has made that joke before.  ("Sun, sand, heat but not really a beach.")

The weird part was that MM couldn't seem to let it go through the rest of the program.  She kept harping on it and then added her cactus to her conniption fit!

I harp on whoopi's clothes a lot,  and joked that my  personal goal it to dress better than whoopi every day,  but I WILL SAY that  the chiffon kimono thing she had on yesterday  was lovely.  A pretty print, it looked like white, tan, gold, black, patchwork with tiny florals.   I would wear that.

Arizona!   I was born here in 1940 and I'm still here.   I like almost every joke about the place.  I didn't create it.  I love it...I stayed, didn't I?  Still, it's dry as hell (we palefaces look old before our time)...dust everywhere in the "desert" areas.  We also have beautiful mountains, a lot of SKIING, many lakes.  Just as I'm confident about myself, Meghan, and can take any joke without being hurt...the same goes for MY state.  Grow up and get off my TV!

Like most days, she is STUFFED into that.  Maybe part of the reason she is so mean & bitchy is because she literally can't move or breathe in her clothes.  She always looks SO uncomfortable.  I'm waiting for the day something something just snaps or pops off of her like a button or something.

Or a sleeve or a belt! There are different stresses in different places at different times but it's constant. IA, she always looks very uncomfortable, and conscious of her clothing when she moves. Is that what someone means when they say "she's not wearing her clothes, her clothes are wearing her?"

Meghan can't take a joke because she uses all of these external labels to define who she is as a person so when you criticize or even make a joke about any of those things, she automatically reads like you're intentionally trying to take the piss out of her...as if everyone's opinions and principles are crafted with the intent to incite a reaction out of her...as if she's that important.  She talks about being from Arizona as if that's supposed to automatically tell the audience the kind of person she is. She talks about being a Republican and conservative as if that sums up who she is as an individual. She willingly sums herself up with one label after another - Arizonan(ian?), a Republican, a conservative,  a constitutionalist....it's clear as day that Joy is a Democrat and very likely Sunny is as well...Whoopi tends to lean independent with how she speaks and I can guess all of these things without having to listen to them every fucking day say they are Democrats and Independents. Even Abby defines herself less by her political party than Meghan does.

The program came back as Colin was insulting Utah, so I missed Meghan’s response.  I did think that Abby was a good sport when not only her state was insulted, but her entire family’s religion. Meghan should take note.

Meghan thinks being a Republican is a way of life.  Which is why she thinks Ana isn't a true Republican.  She doesn't seem to grasp that one's political beliefs are just one facet of their personality.  Most people don't define themselves by their political party.

[Gemma Violet]

I'm wondering if, in Meghan's mind, a joke about Arizona is a joke about her father.  He lived there for four decades and he and Meghan have probably had talks about how beautiful the state is.  Knowing how she's still grieving (per her Instagram essays), maybe that's an explanation as to why she went ballistic.

Or maybe she's just a bitch.
