Candace Owens Rips Into Meghan McCain: ‘I am Amazed That She Has the Audacity to Ever Speak’

Candace Owens did not mince words when Meghan McCain became a topic of discussion on her latest podcast episode.

While chatting with commentator and journalist Ana Kasparian for the Thursday, May 28, episode of Candace, the former View cohost came up in conversation as Owens was talking about people who “have accomplished absolutely nothing in their lives.”

“I have a funny story about Meghan McCain,” Kasparian, 39, told Owens, to which she replied: “I am amazed that she has the audacity to ever speak.”

However, Owens, 37, pointed out that when the TV personality and author is speaking, it is usually about her late father, Sen. John McCain, who died in 2018 at age 81.

“She’s never done literally anything other than say, ‘My daddy,'” Owens said, doubling down.

Kasparian — who met with Owens to discuss common ground they share on certain views like world peace and the conflict in the Middle East — then described an encounter that she had years ago with the mother of three.

“She used to host a show called Take Part Live, and at this time, she and I knew each other, so I would fill in when one of the hosts was out, [and] we interacted,” Kasparian began.

“One time, they called me in to be a guest on the panel, and they were going to talk about — this is during the Obama administration — [Barack Obama]’s expansion of drone use in the Middle East,” Kasparian said.

“A lot of innocent people were getting killed,” Kasparian continued, adding that Meghan had to allegedly “read an article” in preparation for the segment “so she would know what the story is as we talk about it on the show.”

“She couldn’t be bothered to read the article,” Kasparian claimed. “She had no interest at all.”

Owens replied, “You could see that even when she was on The View. She just had nothing to add that was intellectual or that looked like she maybe studied. She just comes across like they had a butler who did her homework. Do you know what I mean? That she reads very few books. There’s just something about her, and yet she has this attitude and this arrogance.”

Owens also said she thinks Meghan has no idea how her father was perceived. “She thinks her dad is some very well-liked politician,” said Owens. “No, actually on the right or on the left was your father very well-liked or is he very respected.”

The Vietnam War hero was diagnosed with glioblastoma in 2017 and died the following year.
