As the expected meltdown on “The View” provided endless entertainment for those unburdened by what has been, one telling comment raised eyebrows.
Sporting funeral-black clothes to emphasize their despair on Wednesday, the women discussed who is to blame for Vice President Kamala Harris’s epic defeat to President-elect Donald Trump as they suggested restraining free speech may have helped the doomed campaign.
“A lot of my shock wasn’t that Trump won, but the level in which he won was a referendum,” co-host Sara Haines said at one point, calling out Democrats for playing down the issues that voters repeatedly said they were concerned about.

Joy Behar chimed in to rant that US schools should be teaching children to discern between real and “fake news” as well as learning about “tolerance” and “to think critically.”
Haines jumped back in to say “It would help if we could regulate social media.”
“Because one of the biggest defenders is, D.C. and Congress have not been able to do one thing in regard to the rogue corporations,” she added.
The mind-numbing suggestion sparked immediate backlash on social media.
According to The View, the only reason Trump won was free speech and free elections.

“Regulate social media.”
These aren’t Americans.
These women are N*zis.

Dissenting voices should be stopped I guess.
Maybe they should change the name of the show to, “One View”— Currin Cooper (@currincooper) November 6, 2024
Translation: We must unconstitutionally censor other people’s views and opinions, so our lies are the only thing the masses ever see.
And in their own fucked up heads this is them fighting “facism.”

Whoopi Goldberg added to the drama-fest on the show by refusing to utter Trump’s name and Ana Navarro was despondent that “the first black, Asian woman president” was rejected by Americans.
“History slipped through our fingers again. I worked hard as hell for Donald Trump not to be president. But today, unlike Donald Trump and his followers, I acknowledge that he won,” she said.
The show’s resident racist Sunny Hostin lamented that “As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a mixed-race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country.”
“And I think that it had nothing to do with policy; I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country,” she added.
Alyssa Farah Griffin, supposedly the conservative voice at the table, didn’t think Trump’s victory would “be this resounding.”
“I think we forget about rural America. I think the working class feels left behind. They feel like the powerful, the elite only care about them and their power. And [Trump] spoke to them,” she said. “We may not have liked his words, but they turned out for him.”
