Bryan Griffin, deputy press secretary for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), revealed on Monday a staffer from "The View" reached out to their office to see if DeSantis would be interested in being interviewed on the daytime talk show, going as far as to say the show "would be honored" to have him on.
Griffin posted the email he sent back to the staffer on Twitter, showing the office will pass on the show's offer given previous hyperbolical and absurd statements from the show's hosts about DeSantis.
"But are the hosts of The View really interested in hearing from Governor DeSantis about all the important work he is doing on behalf of Floridians to protect their health and livelihoods, to stand up for parents and children, and to defend freedom?" Griffin asked in the email.
Griffin provided examples of the hosts' extreme bias against DeSantis:
Joy Behar: "You're just short of calling [Governor DeSantis] a negligent, homicidal sociopath, because that's what he is." "What is he doing? He's risking the lives of children, children's parents, their grandparents, anyone they come in contact with, so he can appeal to his white supremacist base, so he can continue in his career and get reelected?"
Sunny Hostin: "Death-Santis...I think he's a fascist and a bigot."

ABC says it is a live broadcast.
Ditto all that~~~~
Well done.
They hate DeSantis less than Trump. Just barely.
As soon as Trump is out of the picture, they’ll give him
the Trump treatment.
They are in on the DeSantis draft. These people are so
freakin transparent.
I’m sure they’d yuk it up with the guy “so much more
likeable than Trump.”
Then the next time he was on the show, ice picks and
pitch forks.
Say what you want about George H.W. Bush, but years ago when the execrable Dan Rather wanted to interview him as part of the CBS 60 Minutes program Bush only agreed with the stipulation that the interview be aired live - no editing allowed. Seems reasonable, when dealing with snakes.
That’s charming
I’m an old housewife, and I would bet my butt that my IQ would match all those clucking mean hens.
Oh please. Don’t insult yourself like that. Give the comparison in multiples. I bet you’re at least 3x.
Tired of the games liberals play. DeSantis doesn't have the time to appear on The View.
DeSantis has the time - what he doesn’t have is a tolerance for hateful foolish harridans...
Absolutely.
That never works.
Amen!
It doesn’t work from local talk shows to lib controlled national screaming shows posing as talk shows.
I agree. DeSantis doesn’t need the View, they need him. His response was great.
You’re right bray - - the right word’s ‘brilliant’.
“Don’t Call Us, We’ll Call You.”
One look at her will shrivel a 16 Oz hot dog into a 8 Oz weenie.
“DeSantis should do the interview. There’s no such thing as a bad question if it’s answered properly.
It should evolve into DeSantis interviewing the hosts.
The only caveat is if they can edit the program before broadcasting. DeSantis should demand an unedited recording that his own people would make.”
No, DeSantis gave them the double middle fingers, as he should. Demand an unedited recording......in your dreams.
Trump tried interviews with liberal commentators on several occasions, thinking he could handle the situation. They bit him in the ass every time.
Going into “enemy” territory for an interview is one thing. I agree with you about “There’s no such thing as a bad question if it’s answered properly”, but 4 or 5 hags yelling and talking over each other to smear you doesn’t allow for answering questions well.
Hmmm...
One might assume that “history” has no impact on your opinions...
Andy Rooney was a little amusing. But Mike Wallace was a disgrace.
