Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar Are At It Again – Watch
Whoopi Goldberg, host of “The View,” insisted that “nobody know” what is going to happen in the Florida election for governor. She defended the Democrats in the Sunshine State and dismissed the idea that they may be misreading the political “mood” there.
The show was recently opened by showing a clip of the debate between Gov. Ron DeSantis and his Democratic opponent Charlie Crist. Immediately following the clip the ladies started mocking and criticizing DeSantis for allowing children to return to classrooms after the COVID lockdowns.
Joy Behar, another co-host on the midday show, went right after DeSantis and his lack of “Charisma.” She said, “When Crist said are you going to run in 2024, he looked like he’s ah — he’s having a stroke, he can’t even answer that simple question.”
Behar’s comments come just a week after the ladies on the ABC midday talk show were adamant defenders of Pennsylvania Senate hopeful John Fetterman (D). He suffered a stroke earlier this year and now struggles with auditory processing. But they were willing to mock Herschel Walker, a Republican Senate candidate in Georgia, asking whether he had suffered a stroke. The hypocrisy is amazing.
Co-host Sunny Hostin has made a habit out of referring to the Florida GOP governor as “DeathSantis.” She said that his performance in the Monday debate was “wooden,” and she claimed that his press appearances were just battles with reporters that were “carefully crafted.”
The new token Republican co-host, Alyssa Farah Griffin entered into the conversation briefly to say that perhaps Democrats were not doing a good job reading the room in Florida. That is what provoked Goldberg’s intense response.
“Florida is where Democrats may be misreading the political mood more than anywhere,” Griffin said,
“Until you can say that you can see the crystal ball, nobody knows who’s going to win the state of Florida,” Goldberg objected. “Nobody knows, I mean that’s the thing. I always — I say this to everybody for a reason. Because I feel like it is the responsibility for us to remind everyone that it’s your job to get out and vote in your state.”
Sunny called him "robotic"/"wooden" and calls his pressers "carefully crafted (despite him taking on a hostile liberal press).
She also decries keeping kids in school.
