It seems a day doesn’t go by that the hosts don’t make headlines for slamming something the President has said or done. One fan is sick of the constant “lies” some of the hosts spew. They took to social media to rant about the “political hate” from The View hosts.

“I do record The View and try to watch it. However, when Joy (especially her) spews her political hate that is NOT true, I fact check it and Joy lies. Whoppie [sic] is not much better,” the angry viewer wrote.
