White House issues intimidating statement about The View being 'pulled off the air' over 'irrelevant loser' Joy Behar (exclusive)

A White House spokesperson exclusively responded to EW after Behar's criticism alleged Trump is "jealous of Obama" because president isn't "trim" or "happily married."

• Joy Behar said on The View that she thinks Trump is "jealous" of Obama because Trump isn't "trim" or "happily married."
• In response, the White House issued an intimidating statement to EW about The View being "pulled off the air."
• The statement came amid controversy surrounding the abrupt cancellation of Stephen Colbert's talk show.

After The View cohosts clocked Donald Trump's potential jealousy meter amid the president's recent criticism of Barack Obama, the White House issued an intimidating statement to Entertainment Weekly referencing the potential for the talk show to be "pulled off the air."

In the aftermath of Trump making a shocking allegation Tuesday that Obama "was trying to lead a coup" in the past — which even prompted a rare response from the former president — Whoopi Goldberg introduced a Hot Topic on Wednesday's episode in observance of the strange development.

Joy Behar then jumped in with a criticism of her own, saying, "First of all, who tried to overthrow the government on Jan. 6. Who was that again? That was not Obama," referencing the deadly Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection on the United States Capitol, which mostly supporters of Trump participated in.

It seems he has all the time in the world to create new and foster old distractions, instead of leading and taking responsibility for his own actions!

to the tune of ~ $100 million to his 'Presidential Library' fund. All those bullshit deals should be voided by an ethical judge as violations of tbe Hobbs Act.
