Here’s how people have been celebrating on Twitter…

In honor of Meghan McCain’s last day on The View, I will not be watching, the same way I haven’t since her first day.

But, as it turns out, today was not McCain’s last day after all. She misled us… which is actually right on brand for TV’s reigning conservative supervillian.
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.
The View just confirmed that McCain will actually be sticking around until August 6, which is the season 24 finale. That means viewers have one more week of John McCain’s daughter to endure.
Now, here’s how people are responding to that…
Sorry to ruin your Friday, but @MeghanMcCain’s last day is August 6. Hoping it was today, but not so. 😳🤮😩

There seems to be a lot of confusion about Meghan McCain's final day on #TheView, so to clear things up: Meghan's last episode will be next Friday, August 6, the season finale.

Nutmeg the liar said 7/30 last day and now going one more week 🤬

I thought Meghan McCain's last day on #TheView was last Friday. Then I heard it was this coming Friday. Now I find out it's August 6.
This like that time my mom & cousin walked my friend & me to McDonalds and told us it was just around the corner, but was really 1.5 miles away.

UGH thought TODAY was that awful @MeghanMcCain's last day on #TheView. We are still stuck with her for another week or more. God knows how many unhinged lies she will spew in her last 5 days. pic.twitter.com/6ISygiuQlC

Earlier this week, McCain announced that she’ll be turning her attention away from spreading rightwing propaganda political punditry and will instead focus on producing “legendary” made-for-TV movies.
Her first project will be a Lifetime original movie starring Heather Locklear tentatively titled Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff: The Kristine Carlson Story inspired by the best-selling 1997 self-help book by the late motivational speaker Dr. Richard Carlson.
I am beyond excited and honored to be partnering with @lifetimetv and @KristineCarlson to executive produce the legendary “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff” book into a Lifetime film with icon @HeatherLocklear starring. Can’t wait to share it with all of you!https://t.co/iUS1Amwx3h

She’s like a bad STD, just doesn’t want to leave you alone
Cam
I have an opinion on everything and you have to listen to me, or I’ll call you a troll. They should just take the witch out front and burn her for Democracy.
That’s what we do with people we disagree with. Right? Um. Right?
Cam
@Cam (Stolen Screename)
I LOVE that your obsession with me is so far beyond just stealing my screename that you actually forgot to defend right wing bigot Meghan McCain. I’m going to make another post now pointing out what a terrible person she is. Thank you for reminding me.
Cam
@Cam (Stolen screenname)
No, I’m the real one. The one who matters, and the one who actually has a sense of humor. But it’s fun that I can make you, the shadow, do things. Just by moving my hands. The fury is real and it’s fun.
Cam
@CAM
Yes this is the real one.
Awww, I love that your obsession with me is so huge that you couldn’t even defend right wing Meghan properly.
She pushes out her husband’s bigoted anti-American conspiracies, and yet tries to paint herself as a “Moderate”.
Cam
Meghan’s husband runs an extremely bigoted, Anti-LGBTQ, right wing conspiracy website that Meghan’s money helps fund. She continually would test out his noxious website conspiracies on The View.
She is proof that there is no longer any such thing as a moderate Republican. Even the ones that claim to be “Moderate” support anti-vaxxer, bigoted, anti-American viewpoints.
KyleMichelSullivan
I never watched the show so really don’t care. Maybe now that she’s gone I’ll start paying attention…I mean, once she’s gone…if she ever leaves…
Liquid Silver
She’ll be gone soon enough. For a show I don’t watch, that’s fine. At least at that point, she can disappear from the front page here as well and I don’t have to see that thing she calls a hair style.
ted
Praying for a Mac truck go her way.
Fahd
Imagine the number of celebrations that have had to be postponed because of this misinformation. I’ve thought it for awhile, but now I’m convinced that there needs to be a change in the show runners for the View.
Mr. Stadnick
By “legendary” does she mean mediocre? The only thing Legendary about Heather Locklear is her hangovers.
atypical
That was rather insensitive and cruel.
atypical
I guess all of the partisan hacks out there would prefer that she be replaced by someone the likes of DaBaby? Mind you, Meghan has many times–and often on the show–stood up for the LGBTQ community. Of course, if you could think for yourselves you might have figured that out…maybe???
Hdtex
That’s a lie and a breathtakingly stupid comment.
Kangol2
Why would immediately leap from Meghan the Entitled to DaBaby? Do you have him on the brain or something? You do realize there are other women conservatives The View could choose, like Abby Huntsman, to name one. Seriously, pull your head out of your tuches!
BoomerMyles
And yet she funds her husband’s ultra homophobic/transphobic website.
You can’t have it both ways.
Kevan1
@Atypical.. Perfect screen name for an atypical uneducated right wing troll. She like many republicants, say they support The LGTBQIAQ+ groups. Funny, when it comes time to put their money or Politics to work for the community they disappear or vote for legislation against the gay community. You need to leave your delusional thinking behind and do some real research. She only supports gay people who can do something for her. Her hair, nails her ass waxings or give her money. She is as hypocritical as they come. Next., and good riddance.
Cam
@atypical
Who do you think you’re fooling? Meghan helps fund her husband’s extremely bigoted anti-LGBTQ website.
Ohhhhh right, you’re one of the people who claim that because FOX News puts Diamond and Silk on, that they love all Black people, or that since Megyn Kelly was on that they couldn’t have had sexual harassment.
Nice try.
Kangol2
The clock is ticking for Meghan the Entitled. Why doesn’t FoxNews give her a roundtable show? Her plagiarist hubby can script it.
BoomerMyles
Did you see yesterday’s show where the topic was nepotism.
She had the vacant self-awareness to call Hunter Biden a “lazy spoiled brat who doesn’t contribute anything”.
I’m sure all three co-hosts had to sit there with their hands clasped over their mouth.
BoomerMyles
So Queerty, how long are you NOT going to cover the fact that she specifically called you out as “bullshit”?
Kangol2
I missed this. When did she do it? What was the context and specific reference? She’s so clueless but I also wonder whether she, someone on her staff, her husband, and/or someone else close to her who’s regularly on Queerty pointed out the articles on her, leading her to make that comment. The Meghan McCain stans do make periodic appearances.
Cam
I love how the right wing troll account thinks it is relevant to the fact that Meghan McCain helps support a bigoted, anti-LGBTQ website, that she at one time said something on the cite was “B.S.”.
It’s adorable you keep trying to deflect with irrelevancies.
JayJayBinks
Please fade away into obscurity.
Essie
If she is going to do “legendary movies” for Lifetime then obscurity is exactly where she will be going. No worries.
Terrycloth
I could list a bunch of co-host women who sat at the view table who were just as bad…they left too or got the boot .as usual the producers found another clone with a different face and hairdo to replace them. Don’t replace her keep who is already there or if you mustake it Ana Navarro
PirateMikey
Your father is spinning in his GRAVE for the hatred and bullshit you spew…next up – time to shame Heather Locklear, who hasn’t been a star since the late 1980’s…
whatabesson
Us young gays know “The Perfect Man” and you will NOT disrespect that classic from 2005. Sure she fell off after, but whatever.
twomen4u
ARE WE SURE 150% THAT AUGUST 6TH IS REALLY, REALLY HER LAST DAY EVER?????
