ABC's Meghan McCain said Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) fell
into a trap
by doing a late-night TV interview that included a discussion
about a
stockpile of ice cream in her kitchen freezer.

"The View" host on Tuesday called an ad from the Trump campaign
mocking
the moment "a kill shot," and advised Pelosi to avoid comedy
shows amid a
pandemic.

Pelosi talked about gourmet ice cream "you can get through the
mail" while
sitting in front of a large refrigerator while being interviewed
by CBS
"Late Late Show" host James Corden last week. Pelosi also
discussed the
Paycheck Protection Program, a small business lending program
set up to
help firms get through the coronavirus pandemic. Legislation to
provide
more money for the program was stalled on Capitol Hill at the
time.

McCain said Pelosi had fallen into a trap during the appearance
given the
economic hardships people are facing in the country. More than
22 million
people have filed for unemployment benefits over the past three
weeks.

“They’re traps,” McCain said of late-night shows for politicians.
“They get you to say things there because you feel you’re being
funny.
Leave it to the professionals and don’t go on comedy shows. Come
on our
show.”

Co-host Joy Behar said the incident with Pelosi wasn't a big
deal.

“OK, it doesn’t look good maybe, she’s got an expensive
refrigerator.
Let’s go to Trump Tower and see what kind of refrigerator he
has," Behar
said of the Trump ad, which she deemed a distraction.

“I thought it was a kill shot," McCain responded.

"It’s not the ice cream in her fridge. It’s the fact that she’s
standing behind giant refrigerators, multiple ones that cost
$24,000 each,
and you’re right, Joy, politicians are wealthy, Trump is
wealthy, but I
think in this specific moment, optics are narratives,” she added.
