'Trekking down to Mecca to see the prophet': Ana Navarro rips Fetterman's Trump meeting

Ana Navarro, co-host of ABC's The View, criticized Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) for meeting with President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago.

During a Monday panel discussion about the meeting, Navarro argued Fetterman was guilty of poor judgment because he was the only Democratic official to meet at Trump's resort home.

"I have to say, I don't like the optics of him going down to Mar-a-Lago, because I think that's become kind of like, you know, Donald Trump's little palace," Navarro explained. "And it's like trekking down to Mecca to see the prophet."

"So I don't like that," she continued. "And it feels like he's yucking it up."

Navarro noted that bipartisan relationships "used to be normal."

"The problem is Donald Trump is not normal," she noted. "And so what used to be normal becomes something that we talk about."

In the end, Navarro argued that Fetterman was "right" to meet with Trump, but she worried that "he won't call out the abuses of power, that he won't criticize him when there is legitimate criticism."

Before the meeting at Mar-a-Lago, Fetterman joked that he hoped Trump would make him "pope of Greenland." The president-elect praised the senator following the meeting.
