The ladies of The View lost their minds long ago. And they can’t stand any dissent.
Now the View descends into chaos after a massive fact check on Donald Trump
Guest Expert Highlights Trump’s Market Triumphs on ‘The View’
In a refreshing moment of clarity amid the often one-sided chatter on ABC’s “The View,” CNBC anchor Sara Eisen stepped in as a guest co-host on February 27, 2026, to educate the panel on how President Donald Trump’s pro-growth policies have fueled the stock market’s impressive performance.
Filling in for Alyssa Farah Griffin, Eisen—praised by host Whoopi Goldberg as an expert—pushed back against the notion that presidents don’t sway markets, emphasizing Trump’s deregulation and economic strategies as key drivers of investor optimism.
This intervention showcased the real-world benefits of Trump’s agenda, countering the show’s typical skepticism toward his successes.
Goldberg kicked off the discussion by asking, “I do want to ask you about the market because it seems that the market doesn’t really pay attention to who is president,” and adding, “The market does what it does.” Eisen swiftly corrected this, replying, “Actually, the market likes who’s president, I think,” and pointing to “a lot of upbeat sentiment from companies and from investors about policies that are helpful for growth — you know, deregulation.”
Trump’s Tariffs Defy Critics, Boost Corporate Profits
Delving deeper into Trump’s signature policies, Eisen praised how his tariffs—long maligned by detractors—have proven far less disruptive than anticipated, allowing businesses to thrive under his leadership.
She explained, “The tariffs usually wouldn’t be helpful for growth, but they haven’t been as bad as everybody expected,” and elaborated, “Well, fair. But, you know, when the tariffs were announced, everyone thought it would be like massive inflation and the market would fall apart and the economy would fall apart. And it hasn’t,” noting that “companies have absorbed it. You know what? They’ve never been more profitable right now. But, also, they like the tax bill.”
This affirmation underscores Trump’s economic foresight, where his tax reforms and trade measures have not only stabilized but supercharged corporate earnings, benefiting the broader economy despite initial liberal predictions of doom.
Panel Pushback Can’t Dim Trump’s Economic Legacy
The exchange sparked a spirited debate, with co-host Joy Behar attempting to downplay the gains by claiming, “It helps for rich people,” and “It doesn’t help poor people or middle-income people.”
Sunny Hostin chimed in, “So, if you’re an investor, or you’re wealthy, then it’s great. If you’re middle class or under the middle class, then it’s not good at all.” Eisen conceded, “A hundred percent,” but wisely advocated for broader participation, saying, “But what I would say to that is that, you know, it helps to have exposure to stocks. Like, more people should have exposure to stocks,” before Hostin interrupted with, “If you’re getting paid minimum wage, you don’t have exposure to stocks.”
As crosstalk ensued, Goldberg stepped in apologetically: “So, here’s what we’re doing. Sorry about that. I’m sorry about that,” and noted, “But it was interesting because it’s very rare that we get to sit with a financial person,” to which Eisen enthusiastically responded, “Keep it coming. I love it.”
The lively discussion ultimately spotlighted Trump’s undeniable role in fostering a robust market environment, proving his policies deliver results that even daytime TV can’t ignore.
