Friday on The View, while discussing the recent wave of celebrity engagements – including Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra‘s agreeing to tie the knot after only 60 days of dating – Meghan McCain explained that she “would not have gotten with my husband if Trump didn’t become the nominee.”

“I have this theory ’cause I got together with my husband very quickly, which I never do,” she said. “We moved in very quickly. I have this theory that Trump’s America makes everything more intense and heightened, because we’re always talking about the threat of nuclear war and we want to be nurtured by each other.”

“For real, I would not have gotten together with my husband if Trump didn’t become the nominee and weren’t running for president,” she added. “A hundred percent.”

“At the RNC when he accepted the nomination, I cried and cried and cried to him in an SUV back to our hotel room, and he got me P.F. Chang’s and I thought, maybe I can marry this guy.”

“Thank you, I guess, for helping me get married,” she quipped.

Vis-à-vis Chopra and Jonas, by the way, she said: “If you are Nick Jonas and you are with Priyanka Chopra, lock it down. She is gorgeous. Sorry. She’s the most beautiful woman in the world.”

Agreed.
