Liberal ‘The View’ hosts demand Alyssa Griffin support Biden: ‘You have to’
NY Post
The “View” co-hosts clashed on Thursday over President Biden’s lack of focus on high grocery prices, which the liberal hosts dismissed as they bluntly told co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin she had to “vote for Biden.”
Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin largely defended Biden and did not fault him for inflation, while noting that the president’s former White House chief of staff Ron Klain criticized Biden for being too focused on “bridges” and not spending enough time talking about the price of groceries.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin argued that undecided voters were very worried about the price of groceries. Inflation rose 3.5 percent from March 2023 to March 2024, according to Labor Department statistics, Fox News Digital reported.
“If people knew civics, they would know that’s not his, listen, he doesn’t,” Goldberg began, pushing back.
“There are absolutely things that Biden can do to address it and grocery prices have jumped 25% over four years,” Griffin said. Behar shot back and asked, “What can he do?”
Griffin suggested Biden “challenge” major grocery chains and said there were a number of things he could do. Co-host Sara Haines chimed in and said that immigration was a major issue for voters as well.
