Meghan McCain, co-host of The View, was up late last night tweeting about masturbation, which is an activity she evidently thinks only liberals engage in.
Yesterday evening at around 10:20 p.m., John McCain’s daughter tweeted a New York Post article titled “Man busted for masturbating in broad daylight in Times Square.” She included the caption, “You guys it’s fine, he works for CNN!”
You guys it’s fine, he works for @CNN! https://t.co/6ApwdDIR4w

For the record, the man who was caught masturbating does not work for CNN. His name is Deaven Russell and the New York Post describes him as “a 43-year-old vagrant” who lives in a homeless shelter.
Russell currently has several pending criminal cases against him, ranging from shoplifting to menacing to weapons possession. From the sounds of it, he may suffer from mental illness, though this has not been confirmed.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
But that didn’t stop McCain from turning his tragic story into some sort of political punchline.
Unfortunately for her, her attempt at a joke didn’t land with folx on Twitter, and now she’s being totally dragged for it…
Leave it up to @MeghanMcCain to politicize masturbation 🤣

The sad part is that most of your followers will only read your caption and actually believe you.

If he sexually assaulted someone, he would work for fox or your party would make him president.

Who cares about people pleasuring themselves. We have worse issues.

To bad your parents class was not genetic. Because if it is then it skipped a generation. Because you have none .

Megan, I thought you had more dignity than to remark on something like this!! I guess I held you in too high regard. Sad that I was wrong.

You guys it’s fine, my daddy is John McCain

Even after the joke didn’t land, McCain, who clearly doesn’t know how to read the room, followed it up with another one.
“I will be writing CNN masturbation sarcasm tweets until I die,” she tweeted.
I will be writing @CNN masturbation sarcasm tweets until I die.

Meghan’s second masturbation joke didn’t land either…
You go for it, girl.
Finally found your speed & intellect level, I see.

Is that how you orgasm @MeghanMcCain

Sad that you can’t stop thinking about men masturbating. Please bring this up to your therapist at your next session. I believe there’s medication for obsessive thoughts, too, that may help.

I’m sure your daughter & her friends would love to read them when she’s older.

Are u aware that u might not be entirely ok?

Meghan, if you’re reading, it’s probably best that you lay off the masturbation jokes and stick to what you’re good at. Just don’t ask us what that is.

her level of maturity is non-existent.
she’s filled with insecurities as well.
MissTerri
Silly Queens don’t understand her reference to CNN!!!!! Hi-LAR-ious!!
Hdtex
Miss Terri will die alone, unloved, weighing 300 pounds, covered in feces and bed sores. Hopefully sooner rather than later. Pure GARBAGE.
Cam
Awww, the right wing troll account pretends it knows something. All to defend a woman who helps fund an anti-LGBTQ website.
Sweetie, your troll game is sad and weak.
Den
We understood her reference, child. But we are puzzled that she seems not to understand her compatriots are much more likely to be sexual abusers and perverts than those left of center, if reality is a good of such trhings.
And your tag line? Surely you are aware it is something a 5 year old would think clever but come to see as stupid before they reached 6. Your stupidity is awesome!
mailliw110
Don’t know about your friends, but it did produce a chuckle from me.
jcool
everyone gets the cnn reference, it’s just that jokes are supposed to be funny. it’s kind of a rule.
btw, every time you say hi-LAIR-ious i picture you dressed as phyllis diller, but uglier
Matthewnow
I used like her. However, she seems to be leaning more and more to a fringe mentality. I pray for her child.
Celtic
McCain is vulgar, repulsive and repugnant.
Kevan1
She just never knows when to shut up.
dave22
When she was off the view for 2 days this week I was hoping she would never come back. Why can’t the producers fire her and just pay her out. Shes as repulsive on TV as she is on Twitter
LumpyPillows
There are worse people. She’s just not smart enough to have the nuance needed to be a conservative voice on a liberal show. She’s ok sometimes, but when she misses it’s painful.
amanwithanedge
where is her neck?
Invader7
Yuck …STFU …
Heywood Jablowme
The View could invite the “vagrant” on the show, and Meghan could interview him!
AZ71
When is THE VIEW going to fire her? Enough with this immaturity.
Fahd
Jeffrey Toobin is recently back on CNN – I guess they had a little thing where CNN “explained” what happened and he then apologized and he’s now back on. (I didn’t see it but someone told me about it). That no doubt was her reference.
Still seems like she’s taking a who gives a f*ck attitude. Maybe they’ve told her that her contract on the View is not being renewed. One can only hope.
ted
Still a qunt I see… Business as usual folks.
Consider This
Masturbation, eh? I’ll have to think about that very hard.
SoloMcDaniel
So she’s going to continue making masturbation jokes but if a sex topic comes up on the show, she refuses to join the discussion and says she hates talking about sex. Can’t have it both ways, sweetie.
Kangol2
Was she up masturbating herself because her Federalist plagiarist hubby wouldn’t give her any, and it was unsatisfying so she thought this right-wing slur against CNN would do the trick? She probably does get off on jokes about liberals, etc. Whatever the case, Meghan McCain is so mediocre, unqualified and pathetic she might as well start making jokes about herself.
garybw
What a shame John didn’t masturbate
BaltoSteve
And now you know why the GOP is so against abortion. It would thin their ranks.
BoomerMyles
I guess that’s what she did with her time while being suspended for calling VP Harris a moron on The View.
JessPH
She was referring to JEFFREY TOOBIN who is working again at CNN after allegedly masturbating while working. She’s not saying that exhibitionism is a liberal thing.
Terrycloth
I fear for her baby daughter she will grow up a clone of her mother. .with a nasty vile attitude…

Generally speaking, people on the Right are not funny and when they try to be funny it is often just embarrassing and clumsy. Someone could probably write a thesis on this subject and maybe could tell us exactly why this is. Not even people on the Right are able to laugh much when other Rightists try to be funny. That could either be because they don’t think it’s funny or that they don’t have a workable sense of humour either. Tucker Carlson is about as funny as most Right wing propagandists ever get.
