Ardently anti-Trump View co-host Joy Behar rushed to socialisms aid during the panels discussion about Tuesday nights State of the Union address, claiming that the right had "distorted" its true meaning. Behar also boasted that Democrats actually do want President Trump to fail as payback for ruining the country.
Co-host Abby Huntsman cited the positive reaction to Trumps address and argued that Democrats should abandon socialism because it wasnt a winning strategy to win over independents. That struck a nerve with Joy Behar, who proceeded to correct her:
I have to say the word Socialist is becoming a buzzword like liberal and feminist where the right wing is now taking that word and distorting it. So every time you use it I'm going to interrupt you, she lectured, as the audience clapped in approval.
How is what Ocasio-Cortez is saying -- Huntsman started to retort but was drowned out by the other co-hosts.
Yeah, it is being used, its being weaponized, Sunny Hostin agreed with Behar, who added, It's being bastardized, that word. Nobody really understands it!

Yes, when will our long national nightmare of economic growth, lower unemployment and security finally come to an end?

Usually, Joy Behar fills her big, empty head with helium and flies around scaring little children.

Well that was Oscar Wilde’s point , the evil we do eventually catches up with us.
Wilde while floridly queer actually was a rather serious individual and something of a moralist.

Joy Behar Outraged at Right for 'Distorting' Socialism: 'Nobody Really Understands It!'
Millions upon millions of socialism's victims went to their deaths understanding socialism all too well, and those of us with eyes and functioning brains observing the results of socialism with horror over the course of the 20th century also understand it perfectly well.
Loud-mouthed, ignorant female talk show hosts, on the other hand...

Yes, I think he became a RC. Oscar Wilde may be the most tragic figure in literature from 1850 to WW 1. He was a very fine poet and he was crushed by the consequences of foolish errors well before he reached his literary prime.

I have to say the word Socialist is becoming a buzzword like liberal and feminist where the right wing is now taking that word and distorting it. Not a tenth as much as the left wing has distorted the word Capitalism.
And anyway, someone who distorted every word Trump has ever said starting with the Billy Bush interview really has no cause for complaint.

First thing everyone should do is go to her house(S) and help themselves to their share of her wealth.
