Rosie O'Donnell Fears 'The View' Will Get Canceled After Trump Comments: "The Truth Is Dangerous Now" [View all]

As The Late Show with Stephen Colbert continues its death row march, Rosie O’Donnell predicts her ABC alma mater The View will be given a similar sentence. Following the Donald Trump administration’s recent warning that the roundtable talk show could be “the next to be pulled off air,” the 12x Emmy winner expressed her fears for the Barbara Walters creation in a post entitled ‘Silencing The View‘.

“You know what I just read today? ABC is ‘reviewing the liberal bias’ on The View. THE VIEW. The show with five women speaking [their] own opinions – That’s the threat now,” she started in the lengthy statement on TikTok. “They say they’re not canceling it— they’re just ‘reviewing the bias.’ Which is code for – we’re gonna cancel it we’re just trying to soften you up first.

“Because it’s not enough to run the country into the ground You have to control what people SEE, What they HEAR, What they think. And The View? Well, that’s a little too much woman – a little too much truth – a little too much Joy Behar saying ‘I don’t think the insurrection was a tourist visit, Karen.’ Apparently, the truth is dangerous now.”

Referring to the United States under Trump as “a dictatorship with good lighting,” O’Donnell added, “And I’ve done THE VIEW – twice. I know how hard it is to get four women to agree on lunch – let alone politics So don’t tell me The View is some radical leftist threat. “This isn’t about bias – This is about obedience. This is about removing any program that doesn’t align with Trumpism – soft fascism in full lashes with commercial breaks,” she wrote in part.
