The View Goes on Hiatus After Joy Behar Anti-Trump Rant
Townhall.com ^ | 24 July A.D. 2025 | Sarah Arnold

The View has abruptly gone on hiatus following co-host Joy Behar’s latest unhinged anti-Trump rant, a tirade so inflammatory that it prompted a warning from the White House. After years of pushing partisan narratives and ridiculing conservative voices, the show may finally be facing real consequences for its unchecked rhetoric. The break comes amid mounting calls for media accountability and a renewed effort by the Trump administration to rein in platforms that use their airtime to smear political opponents under the guise of daytime entertainment.

On Thursday, Behar appeared to reveal the show's upcoming hiatus accidentally.

"Before we go on hiatus, we only have one more show after this. I’m allowed to say that, right?” Behar asked, to which Alyssa Farah Griffin laughed and responded, “Too late now!” A producer chimed in from the background to add, “Doesn’t really matter.”

This followed the previous day's episode, where she and her co-hosts reacted to former President Donald Trump's demand that ex-President Obama be criminally investigated for allegedly fabricating intelligence related to the Russia collusion hoax.

"First of all, who tried to overthrow the government on Jan. 6?" Behar said. "Who was that again? That was not Obama. The thing about him is he's so jealous of Obama, because Obama is everything that he is not: Trim, smart, handsome, happily married, and can sing Al Green's song 'Let's Stay Together' better than Al Green. And Trump cannot stand it. It's driving him crazy. Green is not a good color."

White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers criticized Behar, calling her irrelevant and accusing her of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome." She blamed her for the decline in The View’s ratings and suggested she’s jealous of Trump’s popularity, warning that her show could be canceled next.

One of the reasons you had the unhinged rants that the cancelling of an (obviously) failing show - The Late Show with Stephen Colbert - from these folks is to try to make their own shows and the nests they are being feathered in “uncancellable” by creating an atmosphere that it would be an “attack on democracy” to do so. Hence why even why those in direct competition to The Late Show in the same exact time slot were ranting and raving about it being cancelled, and most of them even showed up to be in the audience of The Late Show - even Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show was there.

I believe that was a form of art, as Obama is still on his first marriage, while Trump is on his third.

FWIW, Joy, the happy couple Bill and Hillary are still together, too.

The Spew has become just another unhinged outlet for rabid leftist Trump haters to vent their hatred and lies. I can’t understand how it has lasted this long. Their “hosts” have gone from one leftie shrew after another while keeping the main two, Whoopi and Joy. The name Joy being an oxymoron because that hag is the very opposite of anything resembling such. I’m hoping that this “hiatus” turns out to be another cancellation and if so, it’s high damn time.

Remember how "The View" were such Branch Covidians that they required the audience to wear PINK COVID masks until March 2023!

Yup.

You need an antidepresant.

Then you need Rexulti to boost that antidepresant.

Then you need some other damn drug to correct the TDN caused by Rexulti....

Of course-then you need one of the law firms that advertise on TV to sue the doc who prescribed all those drugs for a million$$$$$ or two for the damage the drugs did to you...
