Whoopi Goldberg appeared to hit a breaking point with Meghan McCain on Monday's episode.
The spat began during the aptly named Hot Topics segment at the top of the show.
Co-host Sunny Hostin pointed out that many of the Republicans who voted to convict Bill Clinton on perjury charges are the same ones willing to acquit President Trump for "clearly wanting to use a foreign government for his own personal benefit to impede our very democracy."
"That is the height of hypocrisy for this Republican-led Senate," Hostin said.
McCain responded that her job as a "View" co-host, as well as an ABC News political correspondent, meant that she is on the show not to "litigate the ethics" of impeachment but to analyze the politics of the situation. Before McCain could finish her statement, Hostin interjected, saying that she was not speaking about McCain but about the Republicans in the Senate.
McCain pushed back, telling Hostin to let her finish, but Whoopi Goldberg, typically the voice of reason on the panel, wasn't having it. As Goldberg tried to change subjects, McCain talked over her, complaining, "Do you want to hear a conservative perspective on this show ever?"
"Girl, please stop talking," Goldberg responded. "Please stop talking right now."
McCain, visibly shocked, responded with what some social media users have likened to a temper tantrum. "No problem," McCain insisted, rolling her eyes. "I won't talk the rest of the show."
"I'm okay with that," Goldberg responded, which incited murmurs from the audience. "I'm okay with that. If you are going to behave like this."
