Meghan McCain of 'The View' Rants About Royal Family: 'Monarchies Are Stupid' (Video)
2021-03-12
[NEWS.YAHOO] As "The View" co-hosts continued to discuss responses to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry
’s Oprah interview, Meghan McCain made her stance on American vs. UK culture clear by declaring "monarchies are stupid" and "the American experience is the way to go."

While the other co-hosts of "The View" gave their opinions on Piers Morgan and his "maimed ego" after storming off a morning show where a co-host asked him about Markle, McCain gave a long spiel centered around her identity as an American. She talked about how playtime with her siblings growing up included pretending to be George Washington and the Continental Army crossing the Delaware River and drove home her love of visiting Mount Vernon, claiming that she named her daughter Liberty because of her intense dedication to American history.
Better to have a hereditary oligarchy. Trust her on that.

#7  She's against that unless it's the media treating her family like some sort of royalty.

#6  Mark Twain had some choice comments on how Americans would drool over visiting royalty.

Oh, yeah, Meghan McCain....I think I've heard the name somewhere before.

#5  Seems like bad news for the Duchess when she's on the wrong side of McCain and Tucker Carlson. I never read People Magazine, but there is so little else in the news that doesn't depress me.

Prince and Duchess stories just ignite my schadenfreude!

#4  Says little miss John McCain's daughter.

Political dynasty is royalty, and her account of her childhood is at least as suspect as Merky's testimonials.

#1  We got rid of our official ones back in 1776, but too many seem to swoon over them these days.
