Monday on ABC’s “The View” Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) laughed when asked if he was scared of President Donald Trump.

While discussing the ongoing back-and-forth between the president and the senior Arizona U.S. senator, co-host Sunny Hostin noted Trump claimed he “would fight back and it won’t be pretty.”

“Are you scared?” Hostin asked.

McCain burst into laughter and said, “I mentioned that I had faced greater challenges.”
