Meghan McCain reveals strangers tell her she looks 'less fat in person'

“The View” co-host revealed that strangers routinely stop her on the street to comment on her appearance, and it’s not always a great experience.

“Can people please stop coming up to me on the street and telling me I look ‘less fat in person?’” said McCain. “It’s nasty. It happens all the time. It’s so mean,” she added.

(Meghan doesn't like folks being mean)

I've noticed that a lot of the characters on soap operas appear to be wider than what I would expect. I guess that I need to change the aspect ratio so I can help those actors thin down a bit.

In the meantime, maybe we start a GoFundMe for McCain so she can purchase one of the mirrors that are in circus funhouses so she can feel good about looking skinny.

Nobody has EVER wasted their time saying that to her, not when they instead could have been telling her she is a vile, vapid, dishonest, boring P.O.S.

She is a lightweight when it comes to political analysis and opinion.

The only reason why she gets to strut her ignorance is because her father was a Republican Senator......who heroically overcame his thievery with the Keating Five.

She adds nothing to the conversation. Just a lot of whining and "poor me" defensive pouts when her views are challenged. As you'd expect on a show that allows people to have strong opinions on politics and social reality, she carries a self-defensive device consisting of a cartridge filled with Poo-Mace .......and it just doesn't work.

Which leads me to wonder....what female Republican supporter is capable of elucidating a rational and cohesive argument on conservative mainstream thought to the people that watch?

Ruminating on this.....I really can't think of a anyone who could advocate better than Meghan for "the other side". At least she shows up. Most people don't handle total humiliation and indefensible defenses like Ms. McCain does.

She reminds me of Micheal Steele - the RNC Chair back in the Bush years - before he figured out the GOP scam plan.

Very dependably lamenting something.
Always telling folks “what Democrats need to do”
She likes Biden.
I personally think Huntsman adds zero point zero.
They could do worse like having CE Crupp
or whomever or Megan Kelly. Ugh.
Always plays the victim.
So self-righteous

She’s fun for me.

Truth be told, I've seen maybe 4 shows of the View with her on it....and it was because I didn't have control of the remote. Meghan seems to have the most drama.....
