Meghan McCain reveals the reason she is 'grateful' Trump is president

Updated

Meghan McCain is crediting Donald Trump for her success -- well sort of.

In the tell-all Ladies Who Punch: The Explosive Inside Story of "The View", the talk show co-host explained that she is "grateful" to Trump's presidency for making her job easier.

“If Trump wasn’t president, I don’t think I would be successful here,” she revealed in the New York Times bestseller.

“For that reason, I guess I’m grateful that Trump is president...It’s just made my job a little easier because I know why it happened,” McCain added.

Although John McCain's daughter is the most outspoken Republican currently on "The View," she doesn't fully support Trump.

“[Trump] spends his weekend obsessing over great men because he knows it and I know it and all of you know it, he will never be a great man. My father was his kryptonite in life, he’s his kryptonite in death...And I just thought, ‘Your life is spent on your weekends not with your family, not with your friends but obsessing, obsessing, over great men you could never live up to.’ That tells you everything you needed to know about his pathetic life right now,” McCain said on the show last month in regard to Trump lashing out against her late father.
