Meghan McCain Criticizes Tucker Carlson for Repeatedly Calling Her 'Fat' on His Podcast: 'Unchristian Behavior'

Meghan McCain publicly condemned Tucker Carlson after learning that her weight was discussed on his podcast, calling the remarks not Christian behavior.

On Thursday, McCain took to X to share that she had been informed about Milo Yiannopoulos recent appearance on The Tucker Carlson Show, during which she was repeatedly referred to as fat.

Responding, she stated: Yes, I am very fat, Im nearly nine months pregnant with my third child. I am also very happy. No matter how often Tucker mentions being a Christian, this kind of discussion on a major podcast is not Christian behavior.

She added: This type of cruelty toward women, combined with hypocrisy, is a clear example of why my generation of women voters often distrust the right.

McCain encouraged her followers not to feel sorry for her, noting that she has faced comments about her weight since beginning her media career at age 22. Its repetitive, lazy, and tired. I dont profit from such negativity and cant imagine the mindset of anyone who does. It must be a very dark place, she wrote.

The incident follows Yiannopoulos remarks on the show, where he commented on her weight in the context of discussing her late father, John McCain. While he clarified he wasnt implying John McCain was homosexual, he referenced stereotypes associated with the queer community, adding provocative personal comments about Meghan McCain.

As of now, representatives for Carlson have not responded to requests for comment.
