Meghan McCain is facing backlash after she called for the firing of Dr. Anthony Fauci because she hadn't received the COVID-19 vaccine despite being a prominent figure.
During Mondays episode of "The View," McCain shared how "frustrated" she is with Dr. Fauci following his appearance on CNNs "State of the Union." McCain played a brief segment of his interview with CNN's Dana Bash, during which Fauci declined to recommend whether vaccinated grandparents are safe to see their unvaccinated grandchildren yet.
"There will be recommendations coming out. I dont want to be making a recommendation now on public TV," said Fauci, the Biden administration's top health adviser. "I would want to sit down with the team and take a look at that."
On Monday, McCain, 36, said the fact that Fauci "cant tell me that if I get the vaccine, if Ill be able to have dinner with my family" is "terribly inconsistent messaging."

Oh FFS woman. A lot more people more vulnerable than you have not yet been able to get the vaccine.

(25,984 posts)Shes got a penchant for Polly-parroting the term cancel culture, and if theres a prolonged debate about whether she should get kicked to the curb, shell be even more insufferable than usual.

(12,509 posts)she should have grabbed a friend after college, a fistful of mom's money, and gone backpacking around the world a bit, or do a couple of years in the Peace Corps to have some life experiences. It appears she got out of college, and lived in a NYC apartment, and that's enough life experience for her.
She does not appears to have been anywhere, or done anything that would give her a breadth of experiences to draw on to back up the sack of right wing bull crap about every issue that she is always slinging around.

Shut up and stand in line.
