McCain, former cohost of The View and outspoken political commentator, has once again made headlines for her scathing critique, this time directed at Drew Barrymore and her recent interview with Vice President Kamala Harris on The Drew Barrymore Show.
In a recent episode of her podcast, "Meghan McCain Has Entered the Chat," McCain didn't mince words as she lambasted Barrymore's interview style, labeling it as "disrespectful" and calling for a reevaluation of the actress's approach. McCain, known for her candid commentary and unapologetic demeanor, expressed dismay at what she perceived as a lack of professionalism in Barrymore's interaction with Harris.
While acknowledging Barrymore's penchant for creating a relaxed atmosphere on her show, McCain emphasized the importance of maintaining decorum, especially when engaging with prominent political figures such as the Vice President of the United States.
She criticized Barrymore for what she deemed as overly familiar behavior, citing instances where the actress referred to Harris as "Momala" and engaged in physical contact, including holding hands with Oprah Winfrey during an interview."This is the Vice President of the United States of America," McCain asserted, highlighting the significance of the position and the need for proper respect.
She condemned what she perceived as a blurring of boundaries between personal interaction and professional conduct, suggesting that such behavior could undermine the gravity of Harris's role on the global stage.McCain's criticism extended beyond Barrymore herself, implicating the show's producers and staff for what she viewed as a failure to uphold the standards expected when interviewing high-profile figures.
She urged a reevaluation of the interview format, emphasizing the privilege and responsibility inherent in engaging with individuals of Harris's stature.Despite her outspokenness regarding Barrymore's interview, McCain's critique is situated within a broader pattern of skepticism towards Vice President Harris.
In previous episodes of her podcast, McCain has expressed criticism towards Harris, questioning her suitability for the role of Vice President and raising concerns about her perceived impact
on feminism.
