Is there a dumber show on television than “The View?” I mean, Joy Reid’s MSNBC show exists, so probably, but it’s got to be up there, right?
The round table of liberal females decided Monday to talk about the recent TPUSA Summit that was held in Florida. Some RedState writers were also present. That led to many breathless allegations that did not reflect the reality. One of those surrounded “nazi” protesters who appeared outside the conference. Brandon Morse, our own Brandon Morse, captured himself laughing at them to give you an idea about how many conservatives supported them.
Regardless, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, and all but one of the hosts went wild, asserting that Ron DeSantis was somehow connected to these “nazis.”
Surprisingly Ana Navarro seems to have defended DeSantis’s position from Behar.”I’m not convinced that Desantis is involved in supporting a coup against America.”
She also rebutted the notion that Trump was like her and said, “I believe Donald Trump is in an all-by himself, thank God.” pic.twitter.com/KpUmO89nJL— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) July 25, 2022
Ana Navarro, the voice of reason is a sign that things are not going according to plan. To start, these “nazi” protesters were not attending the conference, and they were not allowed “inside” as Goldberg suggests. They were instead mocked and denigrated as they stood on the street. Behar’s claim that DeSantis sympathizes with nazis is farcical, based on no evidence whatsoever.
Further, it is not the Florida governor’s job to constantly denounce every random half-dozen wackos who make a public appearance, especially given the history of these types of “nazis” being leftwing astroturf (i.e. What happened to Glenn Youngkin? Democrats don’t have to condemn Antifa and other anarchocommunist groups who show up to their events. But they insist that Republicans answer for all those with whom they are not related. DeSantis doesn’t play that game, and that drives the left mad. They want him to condemn these “nazis” because then they can say, “See, they are part of his group.”
Getting back to “The View,” apparently, the network’s lawyers didn’t like how the DeSantis segment went. When the show came back from a commercial break, multiple clarifications were given, including Sarah Haines being forced to read a “legal note.”
Whoopi, after a brief break, wanted to clarify that Nazis were not “outside protesters.” She claimed her point of view was “metaphorical,” suggesting that they had “embraced them as your thing.”

It is clear that everything they said was false. TPUSA condemned the “nazis” in question via a statement. Ron DeSantis, for his part had nothing to do with them. Lastly, Goldberg’s rantings about them being part of the conference were also false. Instead, they were laughed at and turned away.
In other words, this was just another day on “The View.” How ABC News justifies keeping that dumpster fire on the air is a question that may never be answered. This is not about host who are experts on the subject matter they discuss, but still present themselves to be thoughtful analysts. Is anyone actually watching this mindless trash? Well, I know the answer to that (*cough* white, liberal wine moms), but still.
I’ll end by mentioning how much I enjoy watching DeSantis drive Democrats mad. The man is simply too good for them, and their flailing attacks make it truly entertaining.
