Meghan McCain took a moment on Monday to clarify her comments on the Republican Party that "made a little news over the weekend."

On Monday's episode of "The View," the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain clarified her comments from her appearance on CNN's "The Van Jones Show" on Saturday when she said she prefers to call herself a conservative, rather than a Republican, because the party is "so tied up with being for" President Trump.

"I said that I consider myself a conservative, first and foremost, before being a Republican," a heated McCain shared during Monday's show, adding that "people like Ted Cruz say [it] all the time."

"And then I also said I'm still on the party and I vote Republican on the ticket and I [will] going forward, but that Trump gets nothing from me," she added.

A frustrated McCain continued to vent that her words from Saturday were misunderstood.

"That has somehow been interpreted that I've led some mass exodus out of the Republican Party. It's not true at all, I'm still a Republican but not voting for Trump doesn't necessarily mean you're no longer a conservative," she concluded.

The 34-year-old's comments come after she pushed back on news coverage of her remarks on Twitter on Sunday.

"These headlines are ridiculous — I stated very clearly I am a member of the party, and vote on the republican ticket but that I put my conservative principles and worldview above all else. I was trying to explain the difference between Trump populists and classic Regan republican," she tweeted Sunday.

John McCain, who died last year from brain cancer, was a fervent critic of the president, and the two were known to trade barbs. During the campaign trail, Trump infamously mocked McCain’s war service saying, “I like people who weren’t captured,” in reference to the Arizona senator’s time as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. According to The New York Times, McCain’s dying wish was that Trump didn’t attend his funeral service.
