As NewsBusters has shown over the last week, the Cackling Coven of ABC’s The View has said a lot of things throughout 2024, most of them pretty negative and heinous; racist things, incendiary things, made bad predictions about the election, attacked voters, tried to stir up fear, tried to prop up the Democratic ticket, and morally repugnant things. That’s why we’re wrapping up our 2024 retrospective with a look at some of the laughably dumbest things they’ve said.
From talk about Nikki Haley’s vagina to dogs biting butts, to them “leaking” with excitement, to claiming the solar eclipse was caused by climate change, this is a collection of some of the most mind numbing, jaw dropping, head scratching, and room-temperature I.Q. things they’ve said over the course of 2024.
Proceed with caution as, presented in chronological order, are some pretty braindead comments.
We’re going to start this countdown in January, when Sunny Hostin bitterly lashed out at former Ambassador Nikki Haley in a way that left even her fellow cast members perplexed. In trying to chide Haley’s support among women, Hostin seemed to suggest she’s looked at Haley’s vagina:
I don't understand why everyone is backing Nikki Haley especially women. I remember when Hillary Clinton was running, there was a lot of talk about ‘I don't vote for someone just because she has a vagina.’ Well, last I checked Nikki Haley has one too.
Co-host Joy Behar asked the question that was likely on the minds of most viewers: “What do you mean, the last you checked?!” “Sunny is full of surprises,” she quipped.
While attempting to once again equate President-elect Trump with Adolf Hitler, Behar (a comedian) came out against comedy because it supposedly made Trump run for president. “He is one of the most dangerous people of my lifetime to ever be in the Oval Office,” she warned. “And he doesn't have a good sense of humor. We all know at the correspondents’ dinner, when president Obama made a joke about him.”
She then blamed Charlie Chaplin’s comedy for creating Hitler and bringing about the Holocaust: “They made fun of Hitler. Charlie Chaplin made fun of Hitler in 1940, by 1945 millions and millions were dead!”
In reality, Hitler became chancellor in 1933 and became Fuhrer in 1934. He invaded Poland in 1939, which historians agree marked the start of WWII. And while the Wannsee Conference (the 90-minute meeting to plan what would become known as the Holocaust) did occur in 1942, Hitler’s marginalization of Jews in Germany started when the Nazis took power in 1933. Additionally, some of the concentration camps were already in operation as prisons prior to the conference.
Keeping the focus on Behar’s understanding (or rather, misunderstanding) of WWII history, she would later falsely insist that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was the military alliance that fought and defeated Hitler and the Nazis in WWII.
Ironically, her flub came after she declared “I know history”:
Because I know history. And Putin will not stop at Ukraine if they don't -- if we don't help them. And Trump is saying he'll pull out of NATO. These are allies. We were all in this together in World War II, and now he’s going to pull out of this?! Outrageous!
If WWII was Behar’s only frame of reference, she might be very surprised to learn who some of our NATO allies were (HINT: they’re former Axis Powers!)
In late February, when news broke that President Biden’s undisciplined dog, Commander had attacked 24 people (and still wasn’t put down), the cast took to defending the vicious attacks.
They collectively claimed he was picking up on suspicious people that the Secret Service wasn’t (despite most of his victims being said agents). “Well, it makes you wonder. What did he see that nobody else saw?” moderator Whoopi Goldberg declared.
Goldberg then pretended to be Commander and started talking about how she was going to “Imma bite your ass” (Click “expand”):
The View has been a big proponent of the degeneracy known as drag shows and have been a big proponent of parents taking kids to see them.
During a RuPaul guest appearance, co-host Sara Haines insisted that “everyone belongs at a drag show” and RuPaul claimed everyone (including you, reader) wears drag already:
HAINES: None that I've seen. [laughter] But this is all happening while simultaneously we're watching some places in this country ban drag shows. Now, I want to know your thoughts because to me having -- One of the things that appeals about a drag show and often the community, this is a community that took time to find clarity to see themselves to be authentic when it wasn't one actor on the stage, they had to pave their own way. So, I've always found everyone belongs at a drag show. What do you think of this?
CHARLES: Well, listen, you're born naked and the rest is drag. Everybody is playing a role, everyone. When you get out of the shower you put on your drag. Right?
Observing all the dumb things they said in 2024, this is arguably the dumbest.
Just because you graduated from Binghamton University and Notre Dame Law School and were a former federal prosecutor, it doesn’t make you intelligent. Co-host Sunny Hostin proved that in April, when she asserted that the solar eclipse, the New Jersey earthquake, and the cicada brood were caused by climate change.
Her co-hosts were barely equipped to explain to her how solar eclipse are calculable, how plate tectonics work, or the life cycle of annoying insects:
HOSTIN: All those things together, would maybe lead one to believe that either climate change exists, or something is really going on.
BEHAR: That’s more on point.
ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: Or Jesus is returning.
BEHAR: Except earthquakes are not at the mercy of climate change. It's underground. It can’t.
HOSTIN: How about the warming of the planet?
GOLDBERG: No, it happens. And the eclipse, they've known about the eclipse coming because eclipses happen and they actually can say when these things are going to happen.
When now-former Democratic Senator Bob Menendez (NJ) was formally charged with corruption, fake Republican co-host Ana Navarro did more than just mourn for her friend; she defended him by blaming his wife and pointed to Costco.
She even bragged about bringing her wealthy clients to see him:
His trial begins in a couple of weeks, I think, in two or three weeks. And look, and every time we talk about this I always want to start by saying, I think I'm biased. I try to be objective but I've known Bob Menendez for almost 30 years. I’ve worked with him on countless issues, Cuba, Nicaragua, immigration, Central American free trade.
This Menendez that I read about here just does not jive, does not square away with the man I've known for all of this time. It's hard for me to understand all of these facts. I’ve went to him with 100 issues with very rich clients, he never ever did anything like this.
Things got gross in May after Trump was fond guilty on 34 felonies in the politically motivated hush money case against him.
In addition to Goldberg making a rare appearance on a Friday show to celebrate the news, Behar gave the audience too much information when she admitted to “leaking” in the aisle of her local Costco when she was notified of the development:
BEHAR: Well, my reaction I was at Costco buying ten boxes of Keurig coffee and my watch started to buzz and I got so excited I started leaking a little bit.
No one has ever accused The View of being on top of the news.
The year was 2024 and the liberal ladies were only now getting suspicions that COVID’s origins weren’t in the U.S. and that it was possibly from a lab:
HOSTIN: They say they cannot find out what happened here in the United States in terms of the origin of COVID. Well, maybe because the origin wasn't in this country. Maybe it was in another country and maybe they need to now start looking for – at other countries.
BEHAR: Didn’t they say it possibly came out of a lab?
This one is extremely laughable. Goldberg claimed they never lie on the show because it’s something they just “can’t have” going on:
Now we all have -- we have been given doubts that people don't know how to do this. The media has pretty much always been fair to each side, and now when we've gone to this place where you only hear this -- see, we have to tell you both sides. That's why Alyssa's here. That's why Ana's here, because we don't all think the same way, and it's like you all. You all don't think the same way so you want to hear what other people say, but when they're lying, we can't have it.
We can't allow on this show to have things said that we know for a fact are not true. That's what it used to be. That's what it needs to go back to being, and that's where y'all come in. It's okay to feel how you feel, but demand the truth. Demand folk’s fact check what they're telling you because what they’re telling you is important.
While not politics related, the ladies of The View disclosed a lot about themselves when they bragged about how easy it would be to get away with cheating on their husbands; and giving their men possibly enough justification to hire private investigators (Click “expand”)::
ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: I would preface this to say: My husband is the love of my life, I would never cheat on him, but I could absolutely get away with it!
(...)
HAINES: I get a haircut and my husband doesn't notice. He's looking at my face. And the other thing is, Max will may coffee – there are days I've come down to the coffee machine and there's no coffee in it, it’s just hot water. Or he’ll leave the pot out and it’s all coffee on the counter. He – Like, if he doesn't finish what he's doing and pay attention he's like a little nutty.
(...)
NAVARRO: Al, if he's watching football, like if he's watching the Dolphins, I could literally bring a man into the house, have him in his bed, and if the Dolphins win he could probably spend the night and Al wouldn't even know.
Their idiocy continued straight into the Christmas season with Navarro having an absolute mental breakdown as she shouted about how “winter is coming” and people shouldn’t be relaxing and enjoying the holiday with their loved ones because Trump was returning to office.
Her Trump Derangement syndrome was on full display:
NAVARRO: If you are an illegal immigrant in this country, you're not going to be not in panic! If you are a woman working for the Department of Defense, you have a right to be in a panic!
GOLDBERG: Ana, you tell people to say fraught and like this! That is not --
NAVARRO: No, I'm telling people to prepare, Whoopi! I'm telling people to prepare!
GOLDBERG: You think they aren't prepared? They are prepared. I’m saying to people –
NAVARRO: So, that means they can't be relaxing and enjoying Christmas when winter is coming!
She also demanded everyone give their money to Liz Cheney so she could afford a lawyer to protect her from Trump’s Department of Justice.
