Meghan McCain: ABC's Martha Raddatz sounded 'completely psychotic' in Vance interview
Conservative pundit Meghan McCain blasted Martha Raddatz of ABC News for the way she handled an interview with Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) on the network's Sunday public affairs program "This Week."
"It’s really insane Martha and her producers didn’t see how awful her line of questioning sounds to a normal person," McCain wrote Sunday on the social platform X. "I’m sure she would have different feelings if she lived next to an apartment complex filled w/ Venezuelan gangs."
McCain, a leading media personality on the right, was referencing a question Raddatz asked Vance, former President Trump's running mate, about whether he supports Trump’s remarks about the presence of gangs in Aurora, Colo., even after its Republican mayor said they were “grossly exaggerated” claims that have hurt the city.
"The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment complexes," Raddatz said, noting the Republican mayor said law enforcement has "acted on those concerns."
“Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs," Vance shot back. "And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris’s open border? Americans are so fed up with what’s going on, and they have every right to be."
McCain said Raddatz "sounds psychotic. Like, completely psychotic."
A former co-host of ABC's "The View," McCain has criticized the network publicly in the past and has accused the network's co-hosts of bullying while she was with the program.
