“The View” cohosts appeared to do damage control during Thursday’s broadcast, cleaning up after Vice President Kamala Harris — who had appeared on the show one day prior — claimed that she was “scared as heck” of the possibility that former President Donald Trump could win again in 2024.
The cohosts were back on Thursday — in part defending Harris’ take and in part claiming that she was not actually “scared” of Trump — after multiple media outlets ran with clips of the vice president’s comments.
Whoopi Goldberg led off, calling Trump-supporters “the snow-flakiest people” and saying that there was plenty to fear with regard to Trump — whose name she still will not say aloud — and the possibility that he could return to the Oval Office.
Cohost Joy Behar followed right behind her, saying that Harris had not meant that she was “personally scared” of the former president, but that she was “scared for the country.”
