“The View” made its return on Wednesday, coinciding with the impactful victory of former President Donald Trump in the presidential race.

Four years after losing to President Joe Biden in the 2020 election, Trump has made a remarkable comeback — and the leading daytime talk show reacted to this unexpected turn of events.

This morning talk show, featuring a diverse lineup of hosts led by EGOT winner Whoopi Goldberg, attracts viewers from various political backgrounds. Alongside Goldberg, the co-hosts include comedian Joy Behar, legal analyst Sunny Hostin, CNN contributor Ana Navarro, moderate voice Sara Haines, and former Trump spokesperson Alyssa Farah Griffin, all of whom shared their perspectives on the election.

Alyssa Farah Griffin, former Trump White House comms director: Trump supporters ‘are patriots’

The hosts of “The View,” including Republican Alyssa Farah Griffin, who stated she would support Harris, expressed feelings of sadness, disappointment, and hope following the election results.

Griffin remarked that Trump’s victory wasn’t “the result I hoped for,” but defended his supporters as “good, decent people who are patriots and care for this nation.”

She urged for a decrease in divisive language, encouraging understanding and compassion among different viewpoints.

“I always believed he could win,” she commented. “I didn’t think it would be this decisive. There are lessons to be learned. We often overlook rural America; the working class feels neglected. He connected with them. Some of his remarks may not have resonated with us, but those voters showed up for him.”

Sunny Hostin expresses dismay over election, calls herself ‘deeply disturbed’ by Trump’s win

Sunny Hostin, known for her legal expertise, expressed her concerns about the working class, Social Security, the health services for senior citizens, “mass deportations,” and “concentration camps,” stating she felt “deeply disturbed” by the election outcome.

“I am anxious about what lies ahead for my children, especially my daughter, who now has fewer rights than I did,” Hostin reflected. “I recall my dad once telling me that I was the first in our family to have full civil rights. Now it seems like I have lesser rights than when he shared that with me.”

Hostin attributed Harris’ defeat to a cultural resentment that is widespread in the country.

Navarro, who was present at the Harris campaign’s headquarters when the results were announced, stated she felt “no regrets” over her support for Harris.

“I put in tremendous effort to help elect our first Black Asian president. It feels like history slipped from our grasp once again,” she expressed. “I work passionately to prevent Donald Trump from returning to the presidency. However, today, unlike Trump and his supporters, I accept his victory and wish the best for our nation.”

Navarro reassured LGBTQ Americans, immigrants, elderly citizens, and women that, “Our fight does not end here.”

Whoopi Goldberg refuses to utter Trump’s name on ‘The View’

“(Harris) accomplished a lot in just two months. People will always say she should have done more; she was active, engaging with everyone, and yet the turnout wasn’t there,” she stated. “The reasons are unclear and perhaps don’t matter now. He is the president now, and I still choose not to mention his name.”

What time does ‘The View’ air?

“The View” broadcasts at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. CT. The daytime talk show is only live in select time zones.

While it enjoys popularity among more liberal audiences, the show often faces criticism from conservatives who perceive it as overly opinionated and partisan. It is also frequently a topic of discussion among critics for “Saturday Night Live” skits.
