The View

Longtime Fox host Geraldo Rivera told "The View" that he supports defamation lawsuits against the network, whether they are from Smartmatic or Ray Epps.

Rivera, who after working at the network for 22 years was fired from "The Five" and left, said he had disputes with another co-host who would frequently get into fights with him. Regardless of the debate, Fox would always take the side of his co-host, he said.

Monday night, CNN's Kaitlan Collins pressed Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) on his claim that he didn't know what a white nationalist is. Chatting about the interview Tuesday, the co-hosts of "The View" didn't buy it.

"A white nationalist is racist, Senator," said Collins.

Alyssa Farah Griffin worked first for Joint Chiefs Gen. Mark Milley before going to the White House to work for Mike Pence and then Donald Trump. So, she said, she recognizes the seriousness of the documents that the former president is accused of grabbing on his way out of the White House.

An audio tape was released by CNN Monday revealing the conversation Trump had with biographers and his staffers, cracking jokes about his classified documents.

There were numerous members of the House that came together to run the first impeachment of Donald Trump, but the former president has always fixated on Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA). On Wednesday night, Republicans moved to censure Schiff, which has only happened a few times in the past century. After the vote, Democrats chanted "shame, shame" to the GOP on the floor.

Speaking to "The View" on Thursday, Schiff described the action as purely political.

"The View's" Alyssa Farah Griffin was name-checked by former President Donald Trump in a wide-ranging Fox interview Monday night with Bret Baier. Among the accusations were that she "changed her view" of him to score a spot on the show.

"I was offended for you," said co-host Sara Haines to Griffin. "Let me remind him the second he started denying the election was when Alyssa left. It wasn't a year and a half later with her view highly changed until she came to the show."

"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin called out a fatal flaw in the Republican challenge to Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential nomination.

The GOP field is growing increasingly crowded, although most of the challengers are long shots, at best, but Griffin said none of the them have gone after the leading candidate within their own ranks -- which she said was the point of a primary campaign.

"The View" began Thursday with the co-hosts debating a recent statement from former Vice President Mike Pence who, along with other presidential candidates, has suggested Donald Trump should be pardoned if he is convicted of the crimes he's accused of.

"You know, I thought it was interesting that Pence didn't say, 'Hey, were you there when they were saying they were going to hang me?'" Goldberg quipped. "You know, these guys seemed a little shocked that he would have this response."

The co-hosts of "The View" recalled a kind of "greatest hits" of things that Donald Trump did over the years that were objectionable – before his former White House aide struck out against her own party, saying that the reason this kind of behavior continues is that the GOP refuses to eradicate it.

Speaking Wednesday, Joy Behar cracked jokes about Trump complaining it would take him a long time to go through all the documents he's accused of storing at his Mar-a-Lago home.

The co-hosts of "The View" think Donald Trump "is going down."

Speaking about the indictment on the morning before the former President was set to be arraigned, Whoopi Goldberg introduced a clip of Republican responses to it, showing members clamoring for excuses.

The co-hosts of "The View" were gleeful to hear that former President Donald Trump got a target letter from the Justice Department warning that indictment was imminent.

Even former White House communications aide Alyssa Farah Griffin was all smiles as the conversation turned to possible prison time for her former boss. Further, she was bothered by former Vice President Mike Pence dancing around about whether he would grant Trump a pardon if he became president.

The set of "The View" got heated on Wednesday as the show's co-hosts debated former Vice President Mike Pence, who announced he was running for president that morning.

After working for him for many years during Donald Trump's administration, Alyssa Farah Griffin has long been a Pence advocate and loyalist.

With the entrance of former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) in the Republican Party primary, The View hosts were reminded of conversations about Gov. Chris Sununu (R-NH), who announced this week he is not running.

Alyssa Farah Griffin focused on how amazing someone like Sununu would be for the Republican Party, but there was no way that he would make it through a Republican primary. Donald Trump, by contrast, can sweep a Republican primary and then be destroyed in the general election.

"The View's" Sunny Hostin called out co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin for fretting over President Biden's age after working for Donald Trump, who is less than four years younger.

Griffin, who worked for Trump in 2020 as White House director of strategic communications, expressed concern that Biden, who will turn 81 in November, might not have enough vitality to serve a second four-year term, especially in light of his stumble at the recent Air Force Academy graduation.
