Joy Behar joked about not being chosen for Donald Trump’s cabinet on ‘The View.’
Joy Behar thinks she’s been passed over for a plumb spot in Donald Trump‘s cabinet. The longtime co-host reacted to the appointment of Fox News host Pete Hegseth as Trump’s defense secretary on this morning’s episode of The View, feigning outrage that she hasn’t been granted her own position.
Hegseth, who will lead the Department of Defense in the second Trump administration, currently serves as co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend and has been with Fox for a decade, per the Associated Press.
While discussing his appointment on the show this morning, Behar noted that she’s been on The View the longest of anyone at the Hot Topics table, having joined the show during its very first season in 1997. Thus, she reasoned, if Trump is looking to appoint some TV stars, she should be next in line, naturally.
“You know what, also, I feel insulted,” she exclaimed.
