Former "View" co-host Meghan McCain called out her former ABC colleague Martha Raddatz over an interview Raddatz did with GOP vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, on Sunday news program "This Week."
In the interview, Raddatz appeared to downplay reports that a Venezuelan gang had taken over apartment buildings in Aurora, Colorado.
McCain on Sunday posted on X, "It's really insane Martha and her producers didn't see how awful her line of questioning sounds to a normal person. I'm sure she would have different feelings if she lived next to an apartment complex filled w/ Venezuelan gangs."
During her exchange with Vance, Raddatz said, "The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts — apartment complexes. And the mayor said, 'Our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns.' A handful of problems!"
Vance responded, "Do you hear yourself? Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs. And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris' open border?"
Vance added, "I really find this exchange, Martha, sort of interesting because you seem to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs."
In the X post, McCain said, Raddatz "sounds psychotic. Like, completely psychotic."
