Piers Morgan believes that ABC's The View "canceled themselves" during their crusade against President-elect Trump, Fox News reported. Morgan said this in an opinion piece published in the New York Post Monday.
The hosts, Joy Behar, Alyssa Farah Griffin, Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, and Ana Navarro, have been relentlessly critical of Trump. All of them, even self-identified Republicans Griffin and Navarro, voted for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Morgan believes that this has caused them to lash out at Trump with irrational anger. "I don’t like cancel culture — but given that the hosts of ‘The View’ have, by their own admission, worked so hard to cancel Donald Trump, it’s time they were canceled themselves," he wrote.
"Because 'The View' has become a pointless, irrelevant parody of itself that urgently needs to be put out of its — and our — misery," Morgan said. He noted that the ladies' conduct demands it.
The hosts of The View have had several moments where they have become unhinged, especially during this election cycle. Morgan illustrated their descent into madness by describing his "worst nightmare" being "trapped on a desert island" with them.
"And all day long, I’m subjected to them all snarling, whining, scowling, seething and cursing about the same thing: Donald Trump," Morgan imagined. He described what each would be doing based on their worst behavior, including "Joyless" Joy Behar's calling Trump a hypocrite despite her penchant for wearing blackface.
"Whoopi Goldberg, who was suspended for saying the Holocaust wasn’t about race, sits by the ocean howling that Trump is a deluded, ill-informed, race-baiting imbecile," Morgan went on before describing the rest caterwauling about Trump in various tropical spots. He then topped that by recounting how the hosts behaved after Trump's victory.
"Their nadir came the day after the election, when to their horror, the man they’ve spent years branding a vile, bigoted, racist fascist won absolutely everything: the popular vote, the Electoral College, the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives. In a truly farcical gesture of brazen bias, the six hosts all trotted out in funereal black clothing because they were in mourning," Morgan noted.
"And yet, ironically, it was their own professional funeral that they were almost certainly attending," he added. Morgan said this behavior justifies their cancellation.
Morgan described the hosts' awfulness the day after the election. Goldberg refused to say Trump's name, while Hostin claimed his election "had nothing to do with policy" but "was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country."
Of course, as Morgan pointed out, "Trump’s win had everything to do with policy" and that the hosts' "insufferably woke worldview" was exactly what "just got repudiated in spectacular fashion." He believes Behar's resolve to "vehemently disagree with the American people" illustrated the disconnect.
"That’s the problem, right there. Behar, like so many of the Democratic elite, just arrogantly assumed that her own scathingly disparaging opinion of Trump was shared by most of her fellow Americans," Morgan said. He accused the hosts of straying from the show's original purpose.
"When the late, great Barbara Walters created 'The View,' she wanted it to be a show hosted by women with different opinions. But it isn’t anymore. They all despise the man who is to be their president again, and that tediously myopic, one-sided act just won’t play now that he’s been given such a resounding endorsement from the American people," Morgan said.
Morgan is correct that this show has become an echo chamber for these women and their radical leftist opinions. Their viewpoint is now demonstrably out of step with the majority of Americans, and there's nothing left to do but cancel the show.
