I know I posted hidden content earlier but I don't know how I did it. I do not even remember what snark it contained.

You hit the spoiler and quote button, it seems, which hid the comment you were quoting, along with your response, I think.

Just a heads up, Sunny will not be here the rest of this week. So I assume Candace will be here the rest & Jedediah is on all week.

DAMMIT!

Ugh.  I cannot with her gloating.

[OhioSongbird]

Whose gloating?  Kellyanne?  I only watch her for the train wreck and word salad she spews.  That gal cannot give a straight answer on anything.

Deflect, deflect, deflect.......

[geekburger]

Since Raven is gone, can they not freeze Paula to only Fridays? and add much more Sunny?

Was it written in Whoopis contract for renewal it would be this way?

[backformore]

I researched yesterday's show , to confirm something.  It's not the first time I noticed this.  When Sunny is making legal points about the election, while she is talking, they run a number of Facebook comments underneath her , of the "Hillary is a crook" mentality.  

It's as though the producers are undermining her.

I guarantee Raven knows about Cartman. It's called a sense of humor. Not getting offended at every single thing. South Park makes fun of everything. It's beyond words how extreme everything MUST be taken now. Either it's this or that. No middle, no humor. It's fucking sad. 

I agree. She couldn't do the voice that well if she didn't know who Cartman is imo. I enjoyed something, for once, from Raven. Also, (imo) the anti gay "jokes" are meant to poke fun at homophobes for being homophobes... emphasizing  that homophobia/hate is a bad thing.  

I had no clue about most of the other costumes. I did recognize Tinkerbell and Marge.

[Buckeye71034]

Idk the point of the view having campaign managers kellyanne and Robby mook. Obviously we are just going to hear the campagin spin and no actual answer.

Yes, I mean Kellyanne. No doubt she'll smugly tout how Hilary's numbers are down due to the latest (non)scandal. 

So Jed is wearing glasses?  To look scholarly?

Whoopi is digging into Kellyanne ass again and not letting her spew her BS and I'm here for it. Sunny should've been apart of the panel today so that she could've been Whoopi's tag team partner especially when Kellyanne incorrectly stated that the 650,000 emails that was in Anthony Wiener laptop was all Hillary's. 

Edited November 2, 2016 by GokaiGreen

[ari333]

How does Kellyanne sleep at night? No really.

I hate it when I agree with Whoops. Every once in a long while she says something coherent.  She defends Muslims, Latinos, and Jews which is refreshing. Is she Jewish ? Not that it matters, but I wondered if she just chose a Jewish (sounding?) last name.  I hope that is not offensive to ask that. Some last names are easy to recognize like in my family there are several "O'...... somethings and Mc... somethings...  and Abu al..... somethings... and a Latino name that is so common it is immediately recognizable. My family is a Heinz 57 of different people. It's great. Well, you get my point.  

[ari333]

I wonder what number from one to ten that Drumph assigns to Kellyanne? [/snerk] As I mentioned, I hate it when I agree with Whoopi.  I like that Whoops said to KA, "What have YOU been watchin?" When KA lit into Hillary, Whoops started talking over KA urging her  to answer the question that was asked instead of diving into a Clinton diatribe and I kind of loved it.  "I was asking YOU cuz you're here." heheheh.  What does Weiner's weeny sexting have to do with Hillary? That is a sincere question.    Ive been out of the loop.

"When I come home and dinner's not ready, I go through the roof  " directly from DJT's mouth.  And that is the least of his horrors. So he admits to going through the roof over a late dinner. We need his finger on the nuclear button?

Jed seemed positively GIDDY  getting to introduce Kellyanne.

Kellyanne is so irritating -  this show is bad enough with talking over each other all the time.  She is the worst!

WHoopi said Trump has been nasty  about people she cares about.  Kellyannes response is "Let me tell you what's nasty - Hillary Clinton...blah blah"  Whoopi tries to get her back on topic, Kellyanne says "Ok, let me know when I can talk"  THEN she keeps gong about Hillary anyway!   what a fuckin' bitch!

I will say thought - she is good at addressing any question about Trump by answering "Hillary....."   Even her response to the ad with the anti-woman messages by Trump, she responds by criticizing Hillary - never addresses the Trump statements.

THIS.

She wouldn't even answer the damn questions. It all began with, "Hillary...."

[ari333]

Joy was GREAT with all her snappy comebacks. WOOT!

Whoops "KA, you make a very good argument for him... something he seems incapable of doing for himself."

ETA: Well dammit Whoopi had me, then she lost me with that Valley voice. GAH

She reminds me of a woman I saw on a documentary who had anorexia for decades.  She looks skeleton-like, with that big scary forced smile.  She did say something interesting -  when talking about immigrants, she said "I was raised to believe that we are blessed to be BORN  and raised in this county."  She slipped that "born"  thing in - a subtle put-down of immigrants.

[Jpxfactor]

I thought it was in very poor taste and immature of them to act the way they did with an invited guest.  I am Canadian and yes keep up with your politics, but there was absolutely no need for the rudeness.  I hate miss whoop, she is just trying to get into the news.  

[TheGreenKnight]

Thankfully we had Paula today and not Candace. Even though I don’t like Whoopi and I realize she was being an asshole, I don’t mind her going rabid on a nutjob like KAC who obviously doesn’t give a shit about Latinos, women, LGBT, etc. She absolutely deserves to be ripped to shreds. And, please, there’s no doubt this show would’ve had Trump on if he ever wanted to come on, but he’s afraid of being around a group of women who’d knock him out if he tried to grab them by the *****.

Kellyanne is a pretty woman. No need to say she looks anorexic... 

[ABitOFluff]

Kellyanne made me sick to my stomach. Literally. Glad Whoopi wouldn't let her get away with deflecting every answer back to Hillary. Also loved Joy's response to how wonderful Melania is, and how she dreamed of coming to this country and marrying a rich American. Yes, like EVERY immigrant that ever came to this country!

[ari333]

Whoopi, it's "does the carpet match the drapes.." not "does the curtain match the drapes" heh.

Re the subject of Rob K and his child's birth:  Here's one that still gives me the shivers. A neighbor had her FATHER IN LAW in the delivery room (with her husband and her sister) and the father in law was below the curtain." That squicks me out and I'm not a prude.  Also , the father in law was apparently a real dick. He told the mom , who was in extreme pain, to "sack up... women give birth in a rice fields in China. They squat, stand up and finish the rice." WHAT? That is a quote as close as I can recall ....being told what he said. I was horrified. If it were me he wouldn't be in there in the first place (eewww to my father in law seeing my lady parts all spread or AT ALL)  But as it happened, the nurse escorted him out after that remark.

I disagree, but only because, this close to an election, if Kellyanne was there to talk about  the campaign, and kept deflecting any questions about Trump by saying "Hillary........ bah blah blah"

You said she looked like a skeleton with a scary smile. The same way conservatives are always criticizing hillarys looks and smile. It's just not needed...

Still wondering if she'd be happy with whatever number , 1-10, Trump has assigned her. And you know he did.  He cant help himself. (imo)

She worries about "everybody's children." I can argue that point

I don't need to attack her looks because there's enough wrong with the hatred being issued from her mouth, but she clearly cannot care if people attack her looks if she supports Trump. She's fine with his attacks on women, so she has no moral ground to stand on.

KellyAnne does look haggard.  I was shocked to learn that she is in her late 40's and I thought that she was in her late 50's. Trump would give her a 3 in his rating of women.  She decided to back him, so, it does not bother me that people are attacking her looks. 

KellyAnn is a typical Trump surrogate..They always deflect questions , when it comes to Trump.  Everything is about Hillary and her "alleged" corruption...

I was so proud of Whoopi today, I loved her attitude towards KellyAnne. I had no problem with it at all.. We needed a bitch, like Whoopie, today, to deal with the noise and falsehoods of the Trump campaign.

Joy was more welcoming towards her, but, I  loved Joy, telling her, that, she was delusional about Trump.

Paula is Team Trump all the way. I noticed that she seemed a bit nervous around Whoopie, when she spoke and gave her opinions.

Jed was ready to break out into a song, when she was introducing KellyAnne.

Sunny should have taken Sarah's spot for today. Sara added nothing as usual..

[honeydo7]

After learning KAC was appearing today, I tuned out, since I couldn't stomach listening to her lie about Trump's hate-speak against so many groups of Americans, claiming his words have been "misunderstood" or "taken out of context,"..... like "Jew-SA." This hateful man appears to be gaining in the polls & many political consultants/analysts are saying the election has now turned in his favor.  What frightens me most about a Trump/Pence administration is that  members of the Nazi party, white supremacist groups (KKK) or "Evangelicals," will believe President Trump says it's okay to harass, intimidate or murder people because of the color of their skin, their ethnic heritage, lifestyle or for practicing what they believe to be "Anti-Christian" religions. 

[Jpxfactor]

It's called free speech..there was no point in having the interview at all, if they won't let her speak.  It was a big waste of time, just don't have her on and you don't have to be rude.

[GiveMeSpace]

I think it is so special that we have a permanent host on this women's show that spends time encouraging kiddies to not get an education. I kind of got the feeling that Whoopi may not have appreciated her lack of schooling being pointed out by the Jedi. I know that this is common knowledge and that Whoopi has admitted it, still not something I would want brought up by someone else  in her zeal to encourage more ignorance in the US.

It's actually not a matter of free speech, and I sure wouldn't be concerned over KAC not getting her say ever, she almost always gives better than she gets.  She is known for running her mouth and talking over everyone as are most tRump surrogates.  I was disappointed that she was given this platform again so close to the election.

Ha- I haven't watched yet and was going to ask about airhead Sara!

Yesterday, I could tell she was listening in her earpiece when to talk during the first segment about the emails/FBI. She is so lost during these discussions!

She had no gun to her head to appear on the show, so for me it'd have been helpful for her to answer the questions that were asked and not begin answers with "Well, Hillary" No one asked about Hillary. Not that I heard. Maybe I missed something.

The Trump surrogates always pivot to Hillary, no matter what the subject is about, it is always about Hillary.  How she is the devil incarnate and that she is the great evil that will bring down America with her greed and lust for power..

How does Kellyanne sleep at night?

On a big ol' pile 'o money.......she does have 4 kids to support....<smh>

Loved Whoopi calling her out and trying to keep her on point (yeah right...like that's ever going to happen)

Surprised me Joy 'loves' her.  They are polar opposites but there are right wing folks that I admire for their convictions. 

Notice Sara wasn't there for KC's segment?

OK...off to read the back posts.  I just had to answer that question.

You're assuming that she won't get stiffed, like one of tRump's pollsters has already been.  Thing is, I'm pretty sure that Robert Mercer is paying her salary - not the tRump campaign.

Free speech, as a right, doesn't mean they have to give her a platform to speak.   Free speech refers to the amendment saying that the government cannot pass a law stopping a citizen from expressing their views.  It has nothing to do with a talk show not interrupting someone  

It's not that they didn't LET HER SPEAK.  It's that they asked her a question, (about Trump, whom she represents)  and then she decided, multiple times, to answer the question in terms of Hillary.   She wouldn't be interrupted if she would listen to what they were asking and answer it.  It's days before an election, and they brought her on the show to speak for the candidate she is being paid to represent.  But she didn't want to do that.  

I've heard it from all the Trump surrogates.  When asked anything that might be controversial - Trump U lawsuit, the child-rape lawsuit, whether he pays taxes - the answer is "why aren't you asking about Hillary's emails?"    That's not an answer, and anyone who does that deserves to be interrupted and asked to stick to the guy they represent.    It's not RUDE - it's a matter of not allowing her to use The View as a free campaign ad.

[OhioSongbird]

Good point!  He's stiffed a lot of people.....

....and just not contractors....

Which is what the Trump campaign has always been about.  Only white people born here is what makes this country great.

 

The absolute arrogance of KAC's remark is appalling.  Yeah only native born Americans are blessed.  I guess the rest of the world's citizens are just kidding themselves thinking that their lives matter.  I so hope that next Tuesday Hillary Clinton wins this interminable election and Trump and all his deplorables can just slink away and let the rest of get on with making this country continue to try to be the best it can be.

Here's one account of what Whoopi said (from The Daily Beast) 

"When Conway teased that Trump would come on The View after he wins the election, Goldberg shot back, “I don’t care if he ever comes back on this show,” adding, “He’s been very nasty about people I care about,” perhaps in reference to former co-host Rosie O’Donnell."

I disagree with the writer. I don't think Whoopi was referencing RO at all.
