Sunny Hostin and Alyssa Farah Griffin Each Refuse to Back Down During Fiery Debate on ‘The View’: “Oh, It’s Chaos!”

It’s not too often that all hell breaks loose on The View — but when it does, it sure is chaotic.

On this morning’s episode of the long-running daytime talk show, Alyssa Farah Griffin butted heads with Sunny Hostin and Joy Behar in a fiery debate that no one was willing to back down from.

The heated exchange came toward the end of the opening Hot Topics segment as Behar voiced a laundry list of President Joe Biden‘s accomplishments, from a “booming” economy, and decreased inflation, to an uptick in the stock market.

“He doesn’t seem to be getting the credit for that — only 41% approval,” Behar said. “Is it because they think he’s old? Because I don’t see anything else they can point to with him, particularly.”

When Griffin, who was the only Republican at the table aside from Ana Navarro, said it’s a “question for Democrats,” Behar snapped, “No, it’s a question for you, really. Because you said you would not vote for Biden.”

In case you need a refresher, Griffin was recently grilled by her fellow co-hosts after admitting she’ll likely “write in” a candidate for the 2024 presidential election. She revealed that she “could absolutely never support Donald Trump again” after walking away from her gig in his administration in 2020, before adding that she “also probably won’t support Joe Biden.”

Much like we saw in the July episode — when Hostin accused Griffin of “throwing away” her vote — the lawyer jumped in to double down on her stance.

“Every vote counts and your vote counts. I’m gonna tell it to you again but I know you don’t want to hear it. Writing in a candidate that you know can’t win…,” Hostin began, before Griffin chimed in, “Why is your candidate not doing better with Democrats? That’s who he needs to win. And moderates and swing voters.”

All of the women eventually began speaking over each other as Behar called out, “Because he’s old!” and Hostin added, “You have to vote for your country.” Still, Griffin assured them that the current president “is not doing poorly” because she “won’t vote” for him.

“You have to, at one point, put country before your party,” Hostin said, before Behar threw her arms up amid the chatter and exclaimed, “Oh, it’s chaos!” Chaos, indeed.
