This should make Trump laugh. That is if he even sees it.
And Joy Behar diagnoses Trump with a serious mental illness.
In the endless parade of left-wing television panels, few shows capture the disconnect between coastal elites and everyday Americans quite like ABC’s “The View.”
On Thursday, co-host Joy Behar, who fancies herself a television therapist, launched into a bizarre rant against President Donald Trump.
Without any medical expertise, she declared that the president suffers from “obsessive-compulsive disorder” and exists in a state of “delusion.”
“I can’t wait for tonight. I can’t wait to hear the speech tonight because what I’m experiencing is that he is in a delusion. He has obsessive-compulsive disorder. I’m not a shrink, but I play one on this show,” Behar stated.
This isn’t serious commentary. It’s the kind of cheap shot that passes for analysis in elite media circles, where criticizing Trump becomes an obsession in itself.
Behar fixates on what she sees as Trump’s fixations: the election, former President Obama, and even Greenland. According to her, these topics reveal some deep psychological flaw in the man who dared to challenge the Washington establishment.
Her remarks expose the frustration many on the left feel as Trump continues to dominate the political conversation. Instead of engaging with his ideas or the concerns of working-class voters who support him, they resort to personal attacks and pseudo-diagnoses.
It’s a pattern we’ve seen repeatedly: when facts and policies fail them, they turn to character assassination.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin even joked about Behar’s habit of handing out such labels, saying, “You have diagnosed me with worse.”
The casual admission highlights how freely these hosts sling around mental health accusations against anyone who steps out of line with their worldview.
This episode of “The View” perfectly illustrates the left’s inability to accept Trump’s enduring popularity.
Trump’s appeal stems from his willingness to speak plainly about issues the establishment wants buried.
Whether questioning election integrity, highlighting past administration failures, or exploring unconventional opportunities like acquiring Greenland for strategic reasons, he refuses to play by the scripted rules of Washington.
