Rear View!

Joy Behar and Meghan McCain are the new Rosie O'Donnell and Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
The View's rating are up and two daytime agitators are feuding on air about politics. The two were arguing over Donald J. Trump attending the funeral of the 41st President of the United States.

Just a few days after Meghan McCain came to defense of Joy Behar, the two go at again over the funeral of George H.W. Bush.

Behar was very upset over the confrontation. During Monday's Hot Topic segment, Behar was discussing how Trump differs from Bush when it comes to environmental safety. Within a few moments, McCain would interrupt her.

"Can we focus on the [George H.W. Bush funeral], please. I don't want to talk about Trump, we're honoring a great president," said McCain.

That's when the yelling began.

"Excuse me a second, please. I want to talk about --!"

McCain interrupts again, "We are honoring a great president who passed and I'mm not interested in your one-issue voting."

That's when Behar fired back: "I don't care what you're interested in. 'I'm talking.'"

McCain responded, "Well I don't care what you're interested in either, Joy!"

Whoopi Goldberg put the breaks on the confrontation and cut to commercial break.

During the break, Behar slammed her cue cards on the table and turning to sound off on McCain just as producers were going to mute the microphone.
The heat was on Monday's show. The Hot Topics segment went off the rails when McCain interrupted Behar.
"My god! Get this bitch under control. If this shit doesn't stop, I'm quitting the damn show. I can't take this much more. I've tolerated a lot of shit on this show but I'm at my wits' end with this entitled bitch. Enough already! Enough already! I'm not playing nice any longer."

McCain looked shocked. She told the producers during the break, "I don't know what she's so upset. I just wanted her to focus on President Bush and not bring Trump into this for once."

Sources say that the tension is there.

"Everyone was frantic. The last thing they wanted was for Joy to walk off the show. She's done that before. Remember the Bill O'Reilly situation? She appeared just as disgusted as she did that day and they only had two minutes to contain this explosion on set and get everyone positioned to return for the next live segment. It was utter chaos on set."

McCain, the daughter of the late Arizona senator John McCain had returned to the show after she buried her father in August.

She along with Abby Huntsman and Ana Navarro are the conservative voices on The View. McCain and Huntsman were on Fox News and MSNBC respectfully. McCain joined The View in 2017 and Huntsman in 2018.

Navarro is a commentator on CNN and Friday host of The View.

McCain has driven ratings up. She is dubbed the "ice princess" because of her demeanor. Back in the day, McCain was easy to talk to. She had got into arguments with guests and the host numerous times. The ratings are doing fine and McCain has no signs of leaving. But they are concerned that she could be facing a serious talking about her behavior on and off camera.

Behar, Sonny Hostin and moderator Whoopi Goldberg are the progressive voices on the show.

Behar is a commentator on HLN and comedian.

Sonny Hostin is a legal and political analysis on ABC and CNN.

Whoopi Goldberg is an actress, activist and comedian.
