Prior to the presidential election, “The View” was daytime talk show tasked with promoting Vice President Kamala Harris – though they would’ve also promoted literally any Democrat that became the president nominee following the coup on Joe Biden.
The insufferable panelists on the show would regularly follow the Democrat Party line and berate Donald Trump while inviting friendly allies on to discuss the so-called benefits of another Harris term. Unfortunately for The View, Harris lost.
Much like the Democrats themselves, The View has been in turmoil since the election. Whoopi Goldberg’s false accusations against a New York bakery discriminating against her over politics were a sign of things to come, with in-fighting interrupted by the occasional on-air clarification for legal reasons.
As ratings continue to plummet, the co-hosts have ramped up the squabbling, with Goldberg all of a sudden taking issue with Ana Navarro’s fearmongering over the upcoming Donald Trump presidency. This had never been an issue for her before, leading me to believe it’s only because she now realizing how damaging her hysteria has been for the show’s already non-existent reputation.
“I’m not going to wait and see. I mean, this guy has told us he’s a retribution. He’s going to be a dictator,” Navarro said.
“There’s nothing to be done until you know what you’re fighting,” Goldberg responded. “Pissing in the wind doesn’t help – you just get a wet face.”
“What I’m saying is I have no false expectations that at 78, he’s going to, all of a sudden, turn into another human being,” replied Navarro. “I spent weeks telling people that he was apocalyptic. I’m not going to change.”
“You lose credibility in many different ways,” responded Goldberg. “If you don’t know what you’re talking about and you accuse him of something, then they’re going to blow it back. That’s why I say we need to wait and see.”
Watch the whole catfight below:
Many on social media were stunned by Goldberg’s sudden U-turn, with some believing it was a deliberate attempt to improving the dismal ratings.
Others believed the writing was on the wall for The View.
