Joy Behar Announces ‘The View’ Going on HIATUS After Trump Threats

Viewers of the daytime show “The View” were surprised on Thursday when liberal co-host Joy Behar accidentally disclosed that ABC will put the show on a “hiatus.”

Conservatives, who have regularly used viral footage of “The View” to demonstrate how out of touch major networks have gotten with average Americans, found the show’s stop almost too good to be true. The majority of its five co-hosts went on anti-Trump rants in the run-up to the election.

On Thursday, Behar asked her colleagues if she could share the bad news, and the set took on a more solemn tone.

“Before we go, uh, on hiatus… am I allowed to say that?” Behar awkwardly asked while looking down and shuffling through stuff on the table.

“Too late now!” joked Alyssa Farah Griffin as the audience laughed without knowing what exactly what was going on.

“Before we go, I want to tell people that the tide is turning. The tide is turning, and things are changing,” she said, looking down at her notes.

“I mean, the ultimate irony would be that Rupert Murdoch will take him down. Uh, Fox News, who created the monster, will take him down,” she continued, referencing Trump’s suit against Murdoch for last week’s Wall Street Journal story about Jeffrey Epstein.

The news of the show’s hiatus came less than a day after the White House threatened that “The View” may be “next” after the cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s late-night show and eight-figure payments by ABC News and Paramount to halt Trump’s defamation cases.

During Wednesday’s broadcast, the panelists discussed reports that the US Justice Department is looking into charges against former President Barack Obama for allegedly orchestrating the 2016 Russiagate farce.

“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 responded, telling Fox News that Behar and her coterie may be “pulled off-air” if they didn’t cut out the anti-Trump talking points.

“Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. It’s no surprise that ‘The View’s’ ratings hit an all-time low last year. She should self-reflect on her own jealousy of President Trump’s historic popularity before her show is the next to be pulled off-air,” Rogers said, per the NY Post.

A spokesman for the show told Entertainment Weekly that “The View” “is up in total viewers and women 18-49, versus the comparable weeks last season, to its most-watched in four years” and that “season to date, ‘The View’ is ranking No. 1 in households and total viewers among all network daytime talk shows and news programs for the fifth straight season.”
