Even Bill Maher Thinks The View Is a National Embarrassment
Whoopi Goldberg just did what Iran couldn’t—she made Bill Maher and Disney executives agree on something. Yes, that Bill Maher. The same guy who spent the Trump years lobbing smug grenades at conservatives now sounds like the only adult left in the room. And after Whoopi’s latest nuclear-grade hot take comparing life for Black Americans to the oppressive, woman-beating, gay-executing regime in Iran—well, even Maher had to say enough is enough. Let’s unpack this circus.
Whoopi Compares America to Iran—Seriously
During a shouting match on The View (aka “The Screeching Henhouse”), Whoopi Goldberg actually claimed that being a Black person in America is comparable to being a woman in Iran. You know, Iran—the country where showing your hair gets you jailed, loving someone of the same sex gets you executed, and protesting gets you shot in the street. Alyssa Farah Griffin, one of the few semi-grounded voices on the panel, tried to point out these very real human rights abuses. But Whoopi wasn’t having it.
“Let’s not do that,” she snapped. “Because in this country, we’ve been known to tie gay folks to cars and hang Black people.”
Yes, Whoopi. Let’s ignore the fact that your net worth is north of $60 million, that you sit on national television five days a week, and that a Black man was President for eight years. Let’s pretend you’re hiding under a burqa while dodging morality police. Makes total sense.
Bill Maher Channels Common Sense—for Once
Bill Maher responded with the clarity of a man watching his party dive headfirst into political suicide. He told Democrats they need to “do something about The View”—as in, take it off the air. He rightly noted that the Democrats had recently taken a small step toward sanity (see: New York Times’ mild course-correction on gender ideology). But then came Whoopi’s comparison, and suddenly it was back to Woke Olympics.
“Do something about The View,” Maher repeated, like a man begging his party to stop lighting itself on fire.
Rep. Wesley Hunt Delivers the Mic Drop
Enter Wesley Hunt, Republican congressman from Texas and the human antidote to Whoopi’s narrative. Hunt is a Black man, a direct descendant of slaves, elected in a white-majority district that Trump carried by 25 points.
Let me say that again louder for the libs in the back: a Black Republican was elected in a white-majority Trump district. How’s that for systemic oppression?
“I am literally being judged not by the color of my skin but by the content of my character,” Hunt said.
“So I don’t ever want to hear Whoopi Goldberg’s conversation about how it’s worse to be Black in America right now.”
Translation: save the victimhood act for someone who’s buying it.
Even Disney’s Had Enough of the Clown Show
And here’s the real kicker—behind the scenes, even Disney executives are fed up with The View. According to The Daily Beast, Disney CEO Bob Iger and ABC News President Almin Karamehmedovic (try saying that three times fast) held a meeting to tell the hosts to tone it down and broaden the show’s content beyond nonstop political tantrums. Spoiler alert: the hosts ignored them. Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Whoopi Goldberg continue to treat The View like it’s the Democratic National Committee’s after-hours cocktail hour—where nuance goes to die and every political opponent is a Nazi in waiting. The same show that once asked Kamala Harris how she’d be different from Joe Biden… only for her to blink and say, “Uhh… I wouldn’t be.” That moment alone helped torpedo her chances with independents. The View isn’t a liability—it’s campaign sabotage in daytime TV form.
When the Left Eats Its Own, We Just Sit Back and Pop the Corn
Let’s be real. Maher hasn’t had a full conservative epiphany—yet. But if even he thinks The View has jumped the shark, imagine what the rest of middle America is thinking. The show has turned into a safe space for out-of-touch elites to shout bumper stickers at each other. No debate. No facts. Just vibes, virtue signals, and race-baiting hysteria. If the Democrats were smart, they’d cancel The View tomorrow and pretend it never existed. But they won’t. Because deep down, they agree with it.
Final Thoughts: The View Is Our Secret Weapon
So let Whoopi cook. Let Joy whine. Let Sunny throw around legal jargon like she’s prepping for MSNBC fantasy camp. As long as The View is on the air, the Left is doing our work for us. Every unhinged rant, every ridiculous comparison, every time they alienate normal voters—it’s just another boost to the red wave. Keep it up, ladies. We couldn’t write better campaign ads ourselves.
