Joy Behar insists the Democratic Party isn’t undergoing a major leftward shift while conceding that “every” Democrat she meets would vote for Sen. Bernard Sanders.
The ladies of ABC’s “The View” debated the future of the Democratic Party on Monday as the Vermont senator continues to pull in primary wins across the country.
Ms. Behar took issue with co-host Meghan McCain’s view that the “era of the moderate Democrat is long gone” despite acknowledging that no one she knows would reject the candidate’s socialist policies.
“I think the era of the moderate Democrat is long gone. I think it’s full socialism all day long and at least we know now as conservatives it’s going to be the Squad, AOC,” Ms. Mcain said.
“I don’t know if that’s true,” Ms. Behar countered.
“You love him,” Ms. McCain exclaimed. “You named your dog after him!”
It was only moments earlier that Ms. Behar confirmed her preference for Mr. Sanders’ brand of socialism over another four years of President Trump.
“Truth be known, every Democrat that I speak to today and yesterday says, ‘if he’s the nominee, I’m voting for him because we want Trump out,'” she said. “It’s a question of the moderates and the independents and getting them on board — and the Never Trumpers and the people who have a lot of money — you want them to vote too.”
Ms. Behar later said that she “changed her mind” on Mr. Sanders.
“I think at that time [in July 2017], I thought Hillary was a shoo-in, so I was having fun with Bernie,” the co-host said of an interview with Mr. Sanders.

She may like Socialism/Communism, but we will see how long she likes it when her property and bank account is confiscated and everything in America Nationalized. When she goes hungry and has to wait in line for food, if there is food. Wait in line for health care, if there is health care and even then it will be rationed.
She doesn’t read nor listen to the accounts of other people who come from these Communist countries, and their stories of oppression. True oppression.
Funny how they love Bernie the Communist. I agree with alethia, when the rich are striped of their incomes Bernie will be laughing all the way to his comfortable position of power. Are the Democrats this stupid? So they not know the only rich will be the ones of power?
But they ALL (Hollywood and the Squad) think they are in the position of power. Bernie now says he’ll tax Wall Street speculators. Vast majority of that are small investors and 401(k)s, so he’ll be taking away everyone’s life savings to force them on gov’t dependency. Add in his no one should make more than a million, he hides his under his wife’s name. Ask him about his 3 houses and he gets soooo angry.
Every time I see her face it makes me think of how many face lifts she has had because they eventually crush your brain and as we have been seeing with Pelosi. They are nothings and offer nothings but both think they are smart and needed. NOT AT ALL. Thanks for illuminating many about what so-called socialism (altho Bernie is an outright Soviet Russian communist) is because it is what you have stated and worse as I lived under socialism. NOTHING IS FREE either in medicare because you better have plenty of money on hand because you will have a pay a hunk back. Hopefully, we will and are seeing more American citizens awakening to the fact that they must vote for Trump or face a huge horrible future. Past democrat (also calling themselves Progressives) were bad but with an outright communist (which is anyone of the candidates), your life, lifestyle, future is shot to Hell as many will be considered useless and must die (thanks Bloomi for reminding us), will be outright slaves, and don’t forget the old Russian they had lines waiting to get even one egg or potato (by the way my spouse lived under Stalin in Germany and one egg is all they hoped to get to feed 5 in the family), etc., etc. Just go back and look at REAL COMMUNISM THAT BERNIE LOVES and stop thinking freebees and a good life because it won’t be.
The most expeditious way to fix this country would be to grab Bernie Sanders and ALL of his supporters, and expel them from the country. Communism ONLY results in shared misery and mass graves. I see no reason that taking communists out of the picture shouldn’t be considered proactive self-defense.
AND once we’ve kicked out all the commies, move on to all the socialists, AND all the mudslimes..
Lets hope they get their assets seized FIRST.. And don’t get to be given loopholes to get out of the pain we will all face, if sanders gets in..
Yes Linda, Democrats are that stupid. I know many and they are foaming at the mouth to vote for Sanders.
You can tell them the truth, show them history books and they still want communism.
SO GIVE them their wish.. PACK all their bags and send them ONE WAY, to Russia, China or North korea….
AND DON’T LET THEM BACK IN.
Talk to any Lib. They all consider themselves moderates. They all say they listen to all sides before they make a decision. They all make it look like they stay as informed as possible and aren’t simply parroting talking points created by the Lib Media when they push their latest Narrative.
But then they all agree with every far-left item on the Lib agenda. Abortions far all? Sure. Welfare money for people who don’t even want to work? Yep. Trump should have been impeached just because “he’s such a bad guy”? Obviously. We should confiscate all the guns? Certainly.
Statistically speaking, what are the odds of someone randomly agreeing with every talking point the Libs have to offer?
Try explaining the Laffer Curve to a Lib. I’ve yet to see one of them grasp the basic concept. It’s a common sense proof that raising taxes is a bad idea. A fifth grader could understand it, yet a Lib cannot.
Here’s another fun thing to do. Ask any Lib to name three “left-wing extremists”. They can’t. They can never name one. Why? Because literally nobody is too far to the Left for them to agree with. And mathematically, if there is nobody to the Left of you, that means by its very definition that you are a left-wing extremist. You live on the extreme Left end of the political spectrum, making you the very definition of a left-wing extremist. That’s what the term means.
Dems consider themselves “moderates” but they’re really a bunch of left-wing extremists. Joy Behar among them.
Typical brain dead Democrat. She thinks that the 10-20 contacts she has in Hollyweird represents the rest of the country.
They never learn.

That is because for many of those holly wood weirdos, THEY ONLY SEE THEMSELVES. Not us masses.
“Truth be known, every Democrat that I speak to today and yesterday says…” Well now there are two problems with that. One is democrats and he other is the one’s she knows. In other words that statement isn’t worth two buffalo chips. Wait until we the people speak in November. It won’t make any difference who the dems nominate. They’ll lose in a landslide win for Trump. KAG
And ALL 15 viewers were dumbfounded!
She is a prime example of what most of us already know, the left is too stupid to understand just how far left the dem party has gone, she is just one more useful idiot. Does everyone remember how the “polls” in 2016 were claiming right up until the end that clinton was winning, most of those polls were “exit polls” taken at voting areas, imagine a died in the wool liberal admitting to voting for Trump while on camera, what would their liberal friends say if they saw them on the 6 o’clock news, there were plenty of converts voting for Trump because clinton was a step too far. It was not just conservatives who supported Trump and every last liberal or leftist has BENEFITED from Trump policies, whether they voted for him or not. Common sense says many will vote their IRA or 401K, just like the rest of us, after all aren’t liberals always for the minorities, women or anyone else they can carve out to use as pawns, Trump has done more for women or minorities in 3.5 years than liberal policies have done in decades.
Stupid is as stupid does…..
She needs to go live in Venezuela, or Cuba for a couple of years. If she likes it there, maybe she will stay If not, maybe she will starve to death while she is there.
Venezuela is a democracy, and that proves that democracy is the fastest way to a totalitarian state. The politicians promise free things, and the foolish voters elect them not realizing that the things they promise are just lies to get elected.
Wekk, stupid is as stupid does. Here what Bernie wants and has been praised by Democrats. Sanders wants a total government takeover of health care that not only eliminates private health insurance, it will increase taxes on anyone making over $29,000. He wants to eliminate drug companies, and he has proposed a government takeover of energy production. He also wants a federal jobs guarantee and he supports the authoritarian Green New Deal. Furthermore, Sanders wants to use abortion to control population growth.
What does that stupid twit use for a brain … OH, never mind, I already know! I will refrain from using the term in deference to the ladies present!
It is unreal what the democrats will do, just so Trump is not given 4 more years. It’s like cutting your nose off to save your face. I will never understand this! each party’s candidates were given their platforms. Today the platforms are so far apart, that a river can run thru it. How did we get so far apart. I’m sure one reason, is the education given to our children. They are taught that socialist is the only perfect from of government. They are not taught our history of our republic.
Obviously Joy Behar does not know many people which is true because she exists in a very secluded world as a celebrity and never ventures out to see the real America. That said, as an Independent, I intend to vote for Sanders IN THE PRIMARY, and then for Trump in the general in November!
Who listens to what that putrified beluga has to say. She’s subhuman and beneath our contempt.
If there is any human on TV more clueless than this Behar crone I would like someone to point them out to me. How could anyone with this 3rd grader mental capability be retained by a major television network. Yes, I know the network is leftist, but don’t the producers realize this idiot says stuff that sets back the progressive cause every time she opens her mouth?
Her liberal producers are off-camera probably smirking & saying to themselves, “Damn I’m glad we’ve got a moron like her to spew out progressive nonsense. I’d be embarrassed to say some of the idiotic stuff that comes out her maw! But our idiot viewers love her!’
Makes you wonder, do those filming, agree with that drivel she spouts?
There’s no sense in reiterating what an idiot this woman is, except for the fact that it feels good to do so. If every contact she makes is voting for Bernie, then that tells us a lot more about the bubble she lives in than the general population. Another example of total lack of self-awareness.
Their bitterness and hatred supersedes any resemblance of conscious thought.
Since they’re rabid liberals, they don’t HAVE any conscious thought..
