Megan McCain finds some 2020 Democratic candidates laughable

'During Friday's taping of “The View,” the co-hosts were previewing next week's Democratic debates. When the topic turned to some of the candidates outside the frontrunners tier, Megan McCain took some digs at the longshots.

"View" co-host Meghan McCain suggested on Tuesday that Republicans should have supported other candidates during the 2016 GOP primaries -- instead of President Trump.

Specifically, she thought former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina would have been better choices.

"Once again, we coulda had Jeb and Carly guys ..." she tweeted on Tuesday.

McCain, on Tuesday, got testy over the issue of impeachment while appearing on "The View." She suggested that Democrats were being unwise in ignoring Pelosi's reluctance to impeach over political considerations.

"Quite frankly, I’m sick of hearing everybody b---h about it. Just do it," McCain also said.
