During Tuesday’s edition of The View, ABC co-host Sunny Hostin shouted the succinct point that “you got to call an idiot an idiot when you see the idiot because I think it’s taking down our country.” NewsBusters agrees. So, that’s exactly what this blog will do with the idiotic statements they made, including saying they don’t know what a woman is.
Reminding the cast twice she was speaking about her “neighbors in the Midwest,” former Trump Press Secretary turned Never-Trumper, Stephanie Grisham explained “they were completely against [Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson] based on her answer of ‘what is a woman?’”
Sara Haines, co-host of the show, quickly jumped in and took note Jackson “didn’t give a definition, though,”As if this was the right answer. While the rest of their coven sat at a bafflement, Whoopi Goldberg appeared to have put Grisham on the spot by asking what a women was.
BEHAR: I told her that I am not a biologist.
GRISHAM: Yes.
BEHAR: How did they feel about it?
GRISHAM : This just upset them.
BEHAR: Why?
GOLDBERG – What’s the solution?
GRISHAM: Which answer is there in terms of
GOLDBERG.
“Most people think it’s biological gender at which you’re born. The sex organs you’re born with,” Sunny Hostin was disapprovingly chimed on as co-host. Joy Behar suggests it was “a gotcha question about transgender” and Hostin agreed “it absolutely is.”
A moment later, Behar began to whine about Trump supporters “sound ludicrous to me. I mean, the things that come out of their mouths.” Speaking about a woman (it’s unclear how Behar figured that out) she saw in a video who suggested former President George W. Bush was Nazi, Behar exclaimed: “How dumb is this woman?”
Well… in 2008, Behar herself accused Bush and his entire family of being Nazis and gave it as a reason he shouldn’t be speaking to the Jewish community:
It’s very interesting and ironic that George Bush Sr’s, George Bush, this one, his grandfather, this one, the late, I don’t like to speak ill of the dead, but in this case it’s fun. [laughter]Okay, he was an American senator named Prescott Bush. He also was a shareholder and director of businesses that made money from Nazi Germany’s financial backers. He is his grandfather. He has no business talking to Jewish people when he’s got this right in his backyard, this guy.
“She will vote. The woman that thinks that George Bush is a Nazi will be voting,” Behar warned them frantically and in no way was it ironic.
Grisham followed suit, going after her neighbours and lamenting the name-calling as well as fretting about the repercussions. “But I also need to say, the more we call people idiots even when they’re saying these idiotic things, the more the right gets all — they close ranks,” she said. “They double down and they will come out voting too.”
“But silence is being complicit! Stephanie. Silence is being complicit,”Hostin started shouting at the guest. “And you got to call an idiot an idiot when you see the idiot because I think it’s taking down our country!”
All the stupid comments made about this issue of The View, it’s nice that Hostin admitted “this is taking down our country. It’s true.”

ABC’s The View

STEPHANIE GRISHAM, I’ve got a real world example. A couple of my neighbors in the Midwest – we’re talking the Midwest here. They were completely against her based on her answer of “what is a woman?” And so, I think that Lindsey Graham or some of the other radicals do that on purpose. Perhaps they are trying to eclipse her outstanding qualifications.
SARA HAINES – She did not give any definition.
GRISHAM : It was impossible. That she didn’t. It was that simple.
JOY BEAR: She claimed that she is not a biologist.
GRISHAM: Yes.
BEHAR: How did they feel about it?
GRISHAM : This just upset them.
BEHAR: Why?
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: The answer is here
GRISHAM: Which answer is there in terms of
GOLDBERG: That is the answer.
SUNNY HOSTIN – Most people believe it is your biological gender. The sex organs you’re born with.
BEHAR: It’s a gotcha question about transgender.
GRISHAM :
HOSTIN : Absolutely.

BEHAR: Sometimes I’ll be looking online and I see like conversations that some reporter is having with a Trump supporter and they sound ludicrous to me. They say things I don’t believe. One said they believed George Bush was their favorite president.
HOSTIN was a Nazi.
BEHAR — Was a Nazi. And then you think, “how dumb is this woman?” Just remember one thing, she will be voting. You can vote for her. Everyone needs to vote. We’re all doomed.
HAINES: This is especially true in the midterms. Midterms are also a favorite.
BEHAR: This woman will vote. She will vote for the woman who thinks George Bush is a Nazi.
GRISHAM: But I also need to say, the more we call people idiots even when they’re saying these idiotic things, the more the right gets all — they close ranks.
HAINES – They will double down.
GRISHAM – They will vote too if they double their efforts.
HOSTIN – But silence is complicit! Stephanie. Being silent is complicit
GRISHAM: It’s not that I want you to be silent.
HOSTIN: You can call an idiot an fool when you see one, but I believe it is taking down our country. This is what’s going to happen to our country. It’s true.
GRISHAM: I agree it’s taking down our country, but we can’t call people – Republicans these names.
