'The View': Meghan McCain's Comments on Coronavirus Raise Eyebrows Online Amid Pandemic
03/27/2020 08:19 am EDT
As has become a trend of late, McCain teleconferenced into The View so she and her co-hosts could maintain social distancing — unlike the lawmakers McCain herself was criticizing.
On Wednesday, McCain also revealed that she and husband Ben Domenech were expecting their first child together.
McCain called the pregnancy "bittersweet," as it's happening during a global pandemic. "There's just a lot of people in a lot of pain right now. I just keep trying to remind myself that people have had babies in much worse and much more intense conditions and this is just how it's going to be for a while."
She also shared the news on Instagram: "Although this isn't how I expected to announce my pregnancy, both we and our families are excited to share the news with your all," she wrote in the caption. "I consulted with my doctors and they advised me that for the safety of our baby and myself, I should be extra vigilant about limiting the amount of people we come in contact with."
However, her marriage to Domenech has some people questioning the sincerity of her impassioned rhetoric.
Domenech is the founder and publisher of The Federalist, both of which have been putting out false information amid the ongoing pandemic. (However, you can find out some helpful information on The World Health Organization's website here.)
