Meghan McCain, co-host of “The View,” condemned senior White House adviser Ivanka Trump on Thursday after she defended her father’s “communication style” and his use of Twitter and “unfiltered” before introducing the president at the Republican National Convention.
“Whether you agree with him or not, you always know where he stands. I recognize that my dad’s communication style is not to everyone’s taste,” Trump said in her speech while talking about President Trump. “And I know his Tweets can feel a bit unfiltered. But the results speak for themselves.”
“Dad, people attack you for being unconventional, but I love you for being real, and I respect you for being effective,” she went on to say toward the end of her speech.
McCain, the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) — a GOP lawmaker who was frequently attacked by Trump — quickly called out Ivanka Trump’s comments.
“It’s not a ‘communication style’, its cruelty and indecency,” “The View” co-host tweeted. “Trump said he didn’t like POW’s [prisoners of war] who were captured, implied my father was burning in hell after he died and constantly trashed him while he was fighting brain cancer. This is how they have lost all decent people.”
