<p>"For me, I expected for Democrats to be happy and wanting Republicans like me to be open to their side of the party, and all I hear almost hourly, if it's on social media or on TV, is the world is coming to an end and it's all Republicans' fault -- screw Trump and anybody who has been associated with the Republican Party in any capacity for the last 50 years," McCain said.</p><p>However, she immediately admitted there wasn't much common ground between herself and most Democrats.</p><p>"There is no home for me on the left in any capacity, whatsoever," McCain said. "The fact that I watch Tucker Carlson's show is probably blaspheming enough in the house of politics, and, by the way, there's a lot of Republicans in the country that were really opening to working with the other side, and all I feel is anger and hate and, arguably, more vitriol than happened during the Trump years simply because you're associated for being a Republican. So it's open season for someone like [Florida Gov.] Ron DeSantis. You just can't isolate non-Trump Republicans like me going forward, because I'm not going to be voting for a Democrat."</p><p>Host Whoopi Goldberg was briefly taken aback by the outburst, but said McCain should look a little more carefully at DeSantis' record on delivering vaccines to <a href="https://www.wesh.com/article/charlie-crist-desantis-vaccine-investigation/35584797" target="_blank">all Floridians</a>.</p><p><span></span>"Well, I wouldn't expect you to vote for a Democrat," Goldberg said. "But I would expect that you know the difference between right and wrong. You are a smart person, and you know that when somebody <a href="https://www.rawstory.com/ron-desantis/" target="_blank">says</a>, 'I'm going to give this vaccine to my friends,' instead of saying, 'You know, I want to make sure that everybody in my state gets it,' maybe that's -- that's not the best thing you want to hear, and it would be nice if somebody on the Republican side [did]."</p><p><br/></p><p class="shortcode-media shortcode-media-youtube">
