Things Get Awkward On The View As One Host Says – The Conservative

Uncategorized

The ABC talk show “The View” is no stranger to controversial and lively debates, with the co-hosts often targeting each other. On Friday, Republican Alyssa Farah Griffin made an interesting statement that resulted in a heated exchange between her and her co-hosts.

When discussing President Joe Biden’s 2024 election prospects, Griffin revealed she would not vote for him if he runs again.

Noting that she did not support Donald Trump either, who is presumed by many to be the favorite nominee of the Republican Party should he decide to run again, Griffin has been one of his critics since he left office. Her stance on Trump has endeared her to her fellow co-hosts at The View – until now.

Joy Behar seemed particularly upset about Griffin’s announcement which caused an outburst from several co-hosts as they attacked Griffin for her position on President Biden.

Despite this outburst however, Griffin remained unfazed and defended herself despite the heated atmosphere on set.

JOY BEHAR: Joe Biden! Let me say something about Joe Biden. According to what I’m observing, the economy is booming, inflation is down, the stock market is doing well, people are having an easier time putting bread on the table, et cetera. He doesn’t seem to be getting the credit for that, only 41 percent approval.

Is it because they think he’s old? Because I don’t see anything else they can point to with him particularly.

ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: Well, that’s a question for Democrats.

BEHAR: No, that’s a question for you really –

FARAH GRIFFIN: Why?

BEHAR: because you said you would not vote for Biden.

[Laughter]

SARA HAINES: Well she’s not voting for him anyway.

[Crosstalk]

BEHAR: But you said you would not vote for Biden.

FARAH GRIFFIN: Let me talk about my vote, one vote.

SUNNY HOSTIN: Every vote counts and your vote counts. I’m going to tell you again but I know you don’t want to hear it, writing in a candidate that you know can’t win –

[Crosstalk]

FARAH GRIFFIN: Why is your candidate not doing better with Democrats? That’s who he needs to win and moderates and swing voters.  

BEHAR: Because they think he’s old. That’s why!

FARAH GRIFFIN: Oh, well then – [gestures to Behar like she has her answer.]

[Crosstalk]

BEHAR: Listen, I am the same age as Joe Biden!

FARAH…
