Meghan McCain Apologizes For Spreading Trump's 'Racist Rhetoric' Against Asians

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Meghan McCain has apologized for her role in spreading anti-Asian sentiment on “The View” after being called out for hypocrisy on John Oliver’s “Last Week Tonight.”

“I condemn the reprehensible violence and vitriol that has been targeted towards the Asian-American community,” McCain tweeted Monday. “There is no doubt Donald Trump’s racist rhetoric fueled many of these attacks and I apologize for any past comments that aided that agenda.”

McCain was not on Monday’s episode of “The View,” Deadline reported.

On Sunday night, Oliver dedicated a segment of his HBO show to America’s ingrained hatred and violence toward Asian Americans in the wake of last week’s massage spa shootings in Atlanta that killed eight people, six of them Asian women.

4. Always a qualifier

“There is no doubt Donald Trump’s racist rhetoric fueled many of these attacks and I apologize for any past comments that aided that agenda.”

I believe John Oliver spelled them out for you, so why not apologize for what you specifically said, and address what was wrong about what you said? This is a typical generic non-apology where the offender refuses to face what they did, and so they offer apologies to "any who were offended", "if you were offended", or in this case for "any comments that offended".

A sincere apology is specific, and unconditional.

6. She's a double talker. She'll say the complete opposite when things cool down for her.

7. I get the feeling the powers that be at ABC had a chat with her and she took the day off to think

things over.

Now, an apology.

Sorry (not really - it's not like it is my fault) but she simply doesn't come off as a sincere person.
