'The View' co-hosts — some dressed in black as if for a funeral — harp and complain after Trump wins back White House



In their first broadcast since Donald Trump took back the White House overnight in a resounding victory over Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, the co-hosts of "The View" — some dressed in black as though they were attending a funeral — as expected harped and complained Wednesday morning about Trump's win.

Whoopi Goldberg at one point acknowledged that Trump is "now the president" — however, she added a caveat: "I'm still not gonna say his name."

'I'm profoundly disturbed that the 14th Amendment of the Constitution did not prevent someone who participated in an insurrection from becoming president of the United States.'

Ana Navarro lamented that America failed to elect "the first black, Asian woman president. History slipped through our fingers again. I worked hard as hell for Donald Trump not to be president. But today, unlike Donald Trump and his followers, I acknowledge that he won."

Sunny Hostin said, "I'm profoundly disturbed. I think if you look at the New York Times this morning, the headline was ‘America Makes a Perilous Choice.’ I think that in 2016 we didn’t know what we would get from a Trump administration. But we know now. And we know now he will have almost unfettered power. And so I worry — not about myself actually, I don’t worry about my station in life — I worry about the working class. I worry about my mother, a retired teacher. I worry about our elderly and their Social Security and their Medicare. I worry about my children’s future, especially my daughter who now has less rights than I have.”

Hostin added: "I'm profoundly disturbed that the 14th Amendment of the Constitution did not prevent someone who participated in an insurrection from becoming president of the United States. I think that going forward that the convicted felon box on employment applications better be taken off because if you can be the president of the United States, then you should not be prevented from employment in this country."

Hostin also wrung her hands about a health care system that's "now at risk" — and then she looked down and appeared to read from a screen and noted that economists say Trump will "increase the [national] debt by $7.75 trillion." She also noted concerns about "mass deportations and internment camps."

“I'm surprised at the result, but I'm not surprised. As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a mixed-race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country,” Hostin concluded. “And I think that it had nothing to do with policy; I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.”

Sara Haines and even Joy Behar — a dyed-in-the-wool Trump-hater — were more measured in their reactions.

Alyssa Farah Griffin has been touted for a while as the lone Republican at the table — although she said she didn't vote for Trump — and seemed the most understanding of them all.

"We need to bring down the temperature, the name-calling, the demonizing," she said before adding that "it is a moment to listen to the voters. ... I didn't expect [Trump's win] to be this resounding, and I think there are some lessons from it. ... I think we forget about rural America. I think the working class feels left behind. They feel like the powerful, the elite only care about them and their power. And [Trump] spoke to them. We may not have liked his words, but they turned out for him."

WATCH: ‘The View’ host just disgusted her colleagues by boldly defending university presidents’ anti-Semitic testimonies



On a recent episode of “The View,” host Sunny Hostin said something so outrageous that Dave Rubin feels the need to warn his audience before playing the clip.

“Warning: this next clip shows a certifiably crazy person,” the screen reads before the segment begins.

“What Elise Stefanik, the congresswoman, was talking about and what this entire hearing was about should have been about free speech,” Hostin began, “and although many people may feel uncomfortable with it, the most hateful and heinous speech is the most protected speech.”

“Campuses have not been good for free speech in years,” responded Sara Haines, pointing out the blatantly obvious flaw in Hostin’s argument.

“What you heard was [the university presidents] saying what is completely accurate under the law — it depends on the context, so if someone does yell at a crowd racial slurs or calls for genocide in a public place ... that is protected speech,” Hostin continued, digging herself into a deeper hole.

“One-on-one confrontation: if a white student, for example, says to a black student a racial slur then ... that is when that conduct leads to harassment and could be actionable by the university.”

“If you have to commit genocide to be able to condemn genocidal language, like, that’s a dangerous slippery slope,” criticized Alyssa Farah Griffin.

Dave, who can’t believe he actually agrees with Griffin, says her response is “a Christmas miracle.”

Griffin also wisely pointed out that the congressional hearing was over the schools’ codes of conduct, not the law.

Hostin is “making the argument about the First Amendment,” says Dave, which “has nothing to do with the school's code of conduct.”

He’s also impressed with Haines’ comment that college campuses, especially elite ones like Harvard, haven’t been the least bit concerned with protecting freedom of speech in the last several years.

“For years, we've all known they've been horrible on free speech,” says Dave, but “they've flipped their whole narrative on free speech overnight so that they can go after Jews and by extension white people.”

You have to hear Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin’s INSANE conspiracy theories about why Jamaal Bowman pulled the fire alarm …



Democrat Representative Jamaal Bowman of New York was caught on camera pulling the fire alarm in a Capitol Hill office building just minutes before a vote took place regarding whether or not to fund the government and avoid the looming shutdown.

Although Bowman has sworn it was an accident, many are skeptical, thinking that perhaps he pulled the alarm with the intention of delaying the meeting, especially since the fire alarm was clearly marked.

“He had no idea what he was doing – it was a red thing and it said 'fire alarm' on it,” mocks Dave Rubin.

One person who is not in the least skeptical, however, is 'The View’s' uber-liberal Whoopi Goldberg.

In fact, she is so certain of Bowman’s innocence that she said, “I know I would have pressed everything if you told me I had to get in there; I would have pressed whatever I had to press get the door to open cuz I knew you would expect me not to be there to vote.”

“When people pull stunts,” she said in reference to those accusing Bowman of intentionally pulling the alarm, “I tend to think they may be more full of it than he is.”

“Whoopi, you dullard,” sighs Dave.

“Even if all of that was true, a fire alarm doesn't open a door. There's no connection; there's no electronic connection between the fire alarm and the door,” he says.

But Sunny Hostin’s theory is even stupider.

“I know Jamaal, and so again, I'm a little biased, but the doors that are normally open so that he could get to the chambers to read were somehow miraculously closed. How did that happen?” she said, insinuating that somebody must have set Bowman up.

But Alyssa Farah Griffin, the “pet conservative” who’s really on the show to maintain the illusion of inclusivity, perhaps has the worst theory of them all.

To hear her absurd take, watch the clip below.

Whoopi Goldberg SHOCKS other ‘View’ hosts and audience with this insanely RUDE question



Last Friday on “The View,” Whoopi Goldberg asked co-host Alyssa Farah something that took everyone’s breath away. And not in a good way.

“Are you pregnant?” Whoopi asked Alyssa.

“No! Oh my God!” gasped Alyssa in complete shock. “You can’t say that when my mother-in-law is here who’s been dying for me to get pregnant!”

But if you thought that was bad, then just wait, because it gets worse.

“Why? Do I look pregnant?” asked Alyssa, clearly feeling self-conscious.

“Yes … I just got a vibe,” said Whoopi, unapologetically fanning the flames.

“What is going on with these women?” laughs Dave Rubin. “I don’t know what the hell is going on over there.”

“The View” has a lot of wild segments, but this one might take the cake. See for yourself. Watch the clip below.
