On Wednesday's edition of The View, co-host Meghan McCain took a little wind out of the liberal scandal sails by noting Trump was at an "all-time high" in several polls, like 45 percent in an NBC News/Survey Monkey poll. Liberal co-host Sunny Hostin then said she doesn't believe these polls anymore, since Hillary lost.

MEGHAN McCAIN: The question I have, though, is we had Stormy Daniels on the show, she's been dominating the news. Comey's book release, selling everywhere, obviously all these reports he is going to fire Mueller. Then why are his polls at an all-time high right now? 45 percent approval rating NBC, Gallup 42 percent, 41 percent Monmouth University. This isn't resonating. SUNNY HOSTIN: I don't believe in the polls anymore after the election -- WHOOPI GOLDBERG [in crosstalk]: Hope springs eternal! That's why it's still resonating. SARA HAINES: Maybe they read the book, Trump had called the book by Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett a must-read. So possibly these people read it. [No. It comes out in July.] It's The Russia Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton and Frame Donald Trump. JOY BEHAR: Where did you get that his polls are high? McCAIN: NBC, Gallup, Monmouth University. BEHAR: And what is the number? McCAIN:45 percent NBC, 42 percent Gallup, 41 percent Monmouth University, all his approval ratings are above 40%. I just think -- BEHAR: That's not a rousing endorsement, 40 percent. McCAIN: They're at an all-time high right now. BEHAR: For him. McCAIN: For him. Yes. HOSTIN: I don't know. After the election, do any of us believe these polls any more? I mean, I don't even believe them, honestly.

For their poll with Survey Monkey, NBCNews.com used the headline "Poll: Republicans who think Trump is untruthful still approve of him." The approval rating is left for the fourth paragraph.

Earlier, Behar pounded her usual doom-saying notes about Trump's presidency:

JOY BEHAR: I think he is in trouble, Trump. Because if he gets subpoenaed, that looks bad. And Mueller will subpoena him because if he refuses to testify just like you were saying in the meeting this morning. Clinton volunteered probably because they threatened to subpoena, because it looks terrible. If he pleads the fifth, he looks even more guilty. So the guy has to come clean, and it's going to be a beautiful thing to watch when it goes live. WHOOPI GOLDBERG: He doesn't have to come clean. He can say, "Well, I don't recall. I don't recall. I don't recall." BEHAR: Then he has some dementia he has to get out. GOLDBERG: The mere fact that you know, the law will work the way it's supposed to, because no one is -- say it, Sunny. SUNNY HOSTIN: No one is above the law. GOLDBERG, to audience: Everybody say it. AUDIENCE: NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!

Hostin wandered through history, that Richard Nixon had to surrender his Watergate tapes. Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, and Ulysses Grant were subpoenaed. Nixon lost unanimously in the Supreme Court, and soon resigned. "Which is what's going to happen to this guy," predicted Behar.
