Various Democrats keep calling on the right to tone things down, even though the violence is coming from their side. The ladies of ‘The View’ on ABC apparently didn’t get the memo because they have gone right back to their toxic style of broadcasting.
During the program on Wednesday, host Joy Behar lamented that “the elephant in the room is that we’re screwed!” as she pointed out that we still have more than three years left in Trump’s presidency.
Wait until she finds out what just happened to Jimmy Kimmel. By the way Joy, you might not want to make jokes about elephants in the room.
NewsBusters reports:
The body of conservative activist Charlie Kirk wasn’t even in the ground yet when ABC co-host Joy Behar decided to go back to spewing inciting rhetoric against President Trump and conservatives. During Wednesday’s episode of The View, Behar proclaimed that America was “screwed” and moderator Whoopi Goldberg proclaimed that she didn’t know how long the Constitution would last. And not a single person on set seemed to reflect on their hyperbolic doomsaying given recent events.
An exasperated Behar interjected during their conversation about the Senate hearing of FBI Director Kash Patal to fret about the future of the country:
BEHAR: You know. I’m sorry, I feel as though–
GOLDBERG: Take a breath. Take a deep breath. Take a breath, Joy, take a breath and tell us.
BEHAR: I feel like we’re trapped in a bad movie, like you’ve got these incompetent people running the government and we’re like a bunch of sitting ducks. You’ve got the puppy killer. You’ve got the signal cake guy, what’s his name, Hegseth.
“I mean, there’s no end to the incompetency that we are experiencing as Americans!” she shouted. “So, I can almost not even talk about individual situations like this, because the overall picture and the elephant in the room is that we’re screwed!”
Here’s the clip:
And The View is already back to using inciting rhetoric against the Trump administration and conservatives:
JOY BEHAR: The overall picture and the elephant in the room is that we’re screwed [as a country].

ABC did the right thing with Kimmel. When are they going to give ‘The View’ the same treatment?
