“The View” cohost Meghan McCain had the perfect response when Kurt Eichenwald, a contributing editor at Vanity Fair, criticized her on Monday.
McCain criticized Parkland survivor David Hogg on “The View” for using profanity in many of his speeches about gun control and the NRA. Eichenwald later accused her of hypocrisy because her own Twitter bio contains the hashtag “#FuckCancer.”
“Cursing reserved only for YOUR issues, Meghan?” he tweeted.
Here is the twitter bio of @MeghanMcCain who freaked out today because a young man who saw his classmates torn to shreds by AR-15 said the same word that is on her bio. Cursing only reserved for YOUR issues, Meghan? pic.twitter.com/jrKDDbSKfy

McCain shot back with a sassy insult that brought up one of Eichenwald’s most embarrassing moments on Twitter.
“Whatever you say, Mr. weirdo tentacle porn,” she wrote, referencing the time Eichenwald posted a screenshot of his computer screen that incidentally showed he was looking at tentacle porn. (RELATED: Eichenwald Forgets To Close Hentai Porn Tab On His Laptop)

Eichenwald tried to explain away the awkward screenshot at the time, but his weird explanation involving his wife and kids made it even worse.
“Ok, I’m a dumbass…my kids & I were trying to convince my wife that ‘tentacle porn’ existed,” he claimed. (RELATED: Kurt Eichenwald And Kids Look At Tentacle Porn Together)
Sadly, the tentacle porn saga isn’t the only embarrassing Twitter moment in Eichenwald’s past. In 2016, Eichenwald had a meltdown on Twitter after claiming that a user had caused him a seizure by tweeting a strobe message at him. (RELATED: Newsweek Writer Claims ‘Assault’ By Tweet)
