Meghan McCain Fires Back at Trump Pushing Russia to G7: Putin is Getting Everything He Wanted (Mediaite)

On The View on Monday, the hosts discussed President Donald Trump‘s blow-up with America’s G7 allies, and talked specifically about his pressing Vladimir Putin‘s interest in returning Russia to the group.

Meghan McCain crushed the topic, basically asking what happened to America being pro-democracy and anti-dictator.

“I have been so upset, deeply upset, over the idea that we would possibly let Russia back into the G8––G7,” McCain began. “I think people need to understand that in 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea, which was part of the Ukraine, it was the first violation of European country’s border since World War II. Putin is using aggression, he has blood lust for the Soviet Union, and he is going to try to expand into Europe in every way possible and undermine democracy.”
