Elisabeth Hasselbeck Criticizes ‘The View’ and Media’s Handling of Presidential Race
Former Fox & Friends co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck recently appeared on Sean Hannity’s show, where she called out her former colleagues on ‘The View‘ for their support of Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential race.
Hasselbeck expressed relief that she’s not currently on the ABC talk show, as she believes they are in a state of ‘manipulation’ regarding political opinions. She highlighted concerns that mainstream media isn’t giving enough attention to the aftermath of Donald Trump’s recent assassination attempt.
During her interview, she claimed that the timing of Joe Biden stepping down from the presidential race and endorsing Harris was designed to shift the political conversation away from Trump’s challenges. ‘They don’t want us talking about a resilient man who faced a near-assassination,’ Hasselbeck stated.
She specifically criticized Ana Navarro, saying it’s contradictory for someone who supports a party focused on gender fluidity to suddenly emphasize gender in voting decisions. ‘You gotta be kidding me,’ she remarked, pointing out the inconsistency in the Democratic Party’s messaging.
Hasselbeck also mentioned her ongoing friendship with Whoopi Goldberg, noting that they often engage in civil discussions despite their differing political views. However, she feels that ‘The View’ tries to diminish the decision-making power of its female audience by suggesting they should vote for Harris simply because she is a woman.
