“It started, I remember, here, with someone here getting so mad about Dr. Fauci and it felt like it happened overnight,” Haines said on The View earlier this week.
One of the co-hosts asks, “Someone here?”
The clip of the show was shared on social media, and McCain happened to come across it and reshared it, adding, “This is hilarious.”
“Imagine still being shocked people didn’t want their kids masked, vaccinated with an untested vaccine or to have our families isolated in one state while other states were open for no other reason than politics. F**k Fauci,” McCain posted on X, the microblogging platform formerly known as Twitter. “These women will never quit me.”
