Whoopi Goldberg and Meghan McCain had a bit of a heated moment recently on The View.
On Monday’s episode, the two clashed during a discussion over President Trump’s impeachment.
While co-host Sunny Hostin explained why Trump’s impeachment was different from former president Bill Clinton’s, McCain—who, if you’re unaware, is the daughter of late U.S. senator John McCain—repeatedly interjected before Goldberg told her, “Girl, please stop talking right now.”
The moment went viral across social media.
Later, McCain took to Twitter to address the moment, telling fans that she “won’t be quiet.”
“Dems and Rs alike need to confront the ugly truth: both parties are failing to be impartial jurors. I won’t be quiet, even if the reality reflects poorly on the entire political establishment. I have a responsibility to speak for the 50% that feels media doesn’t represent them.”
Both Goldberg and McCain addressed the moment on Tuesday’s show, assuring viewers that things were cool between them.
“We’re going to do a little clean before we do anything,” Goldberg said. “Things get heated on this show, if you’ve watched this show you know this has happened over the years. We’re really passionate this is our jobs. Sometimes it goes off the rails—and it does.”
The View, also starring Sunny Hostin, airs weekdays on ABC.
