On Sunday, Meghan McCain reportedly delivered a scathing critique of her former ABC colleague Martha Raddatz after Raddatz appeared to minimize the impact of a Venezuelan-led gang in Aurora, Colorado.
McCain even went so far as to claim that Raddatz sounded “completely psychotic.”
McCain, a former co-host of The View, was responding to an interview Raddatz conducted with Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance on Sunday.
“The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts- apartment complexes. And the mayor said, ‘Our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns.’ A handful of problems!” Raddatz said during the interview.
“Do you hear yourself?” Vance responded.
“Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs. And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris’s open border? Americans are so fed up with what’s going on and they have every right to be. And I really find this exchange, Martha, sort of interesting because you seem to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs.” he added.
“I worry so much more about that problem than anything else here. We’ve got to get American communities in a safe space again. And unfortunately, when you let people in by the millions, most of whom are unvetted, most of whom you don’t know who they really are, you’re going to have problems like this.” Vance concluded.
McCain piled on, blasting Raddatz on social media:
“It’s really insane Martha and her producers didn’t see how awful her line of questioning sounds to a normal person. I’m sure she would have different feelings if she lived next to an apartment complex filled w/ Venezuelan gangs. She sounds psychotic. Like, completely psychotic.” McCain wrote.
