On January 16, 2025, during an episode of “The View,” co-host Joy Behar expressed her preemptive nostalgia for President Joe Biden as his term nears its end. Reflecting on his decades-long service, Behar remarked, “I miss him already. I miss him. He’s a good person. You know, he spent the last 50 years caring about the country.”
In contrast, Behar criticized President-elect Donald Trump without directly naming him, stating, “This other one spent 50 years scamming everybody and trying to stay out of jail. You know who I’m talking about.”
Behar also voiced concerns about the concentration of wealth among billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, highlighting their limited contributions to addressing global issues such as world hunger. She emphasized that despite their immense resources, little is done to help those in need, stating, “Nothing is done with that money to help people.”
These comments reflect Behar’s apprehension about the incoming administration and the influence of wealthy individuals on societal issues.
NEW: Joy Behar says she wakes up terrified every day with Trump taking office, saying she already “misses” Joe Biden.
