Co-host of “The View,” Meghan McCain, is condemning Trump supporters who attacked the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

She called the events one of the “great national tragedies” of her lifetime.

McCain explained the “bedrock of our democracy” is the peaceful transfer of power.

“He is clearly a president who has turned into a mad king, and at this point, I’m calling on all Republicans and conservatives who still have clout—we have to invoke the 25th Amendment. We cannot withstand this. Our country cannot go on like this,” she said.

McCain expressed her deep frustration with those who decided to use the American flag as a symbol while they were protesting.

“The same flag that our veterans at Iwo Jima held after World War II. You are not patriots. You do not represent America. You are scum of the earth who are using and abusing and bastardizing all that I love and have grown up with for your own sick agenda,” McCain said.

She argued Trump failed to disavow the riots and send in the National Guard.

McCain stressed the president must be removed from office.

“This cannot stand,” she added.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and others have urged Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump from office, as IJR previously reported.

Pelosi said during her press conference on Thursday, “In calling for this seditious act, the president has committed an unspeakable assault on our nation and our people. I join the Senate Democratic leader in calling on the vice president to remove this president by immediately invoking the 25th Amendment.”

She warned if Pence does not remove Trump himself, Congress “may be prepared to move forward with impeachment.”

On Thursday, Trump announced he would allow for a peaceful transfer of power, as IJR previously reported.
