<p>Joy Behar, co-host of ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View,&#8221; said on Wednesday that she hopes that former President Donald Trump beats Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the 2024 Republican primary because Trump is the candidate that Democrats can beat.</p>
<p>Behar made the remarks after other co-hosts on the leftist show took shots at DeSantis, who has not announced whether or not he will seek the White House in 2024.</p>
<p>Cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin said that she believes that DeSantis &#8220;is the most over-hyped politician in America.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I want to see him sit down with a neutral interviewer like George Stephanopoulos and actually answer tough questions,&#8221; Griffin said. Stephanopoulos served as White House press secretary for former President Bill Clinton.</p>
<p>&#8220;DeSantis is what they call a dweeb,&#8221; Behar exclaimed. “And Trump is the one who needs to get the nomination because then the Democrats will win.”</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Faux conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin claims &quot;Ron DeSantis is the most over-hyped politician in America.&quot;<br />She claims his reelection was simply &quot;good&quot; and suggests he&#39;s never taken a shot a Trump. &quot;I want to see him take a punch at Trump.&quot;<br />Joy Behar admits they want Trump. <a href="https://t.co/MUGq7PncY2">pic.twitter.com/MUGq7PncY2</a></p>

<p>Conservative commentators weighed in online saying that Behar had said the quiet part out loud regarding what Democrats would like to see happen.</p>
<p>&#8220;These 🤡’s debase themselves every day,&#8221; commentator Dave Rubin said. &#8220;She wants DeSantis to sit down with a &#8216;neutral journalist like George Stephanopolous&#8217;, who was press Secretary for Bill Clinton and happens to work at the same network as her.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Also the brain melting way she tries to pretend DeSantis’s victory wasn’t a record setting landslide, and how Joy says the quiet part out loud … they actually want Trump … because DeSantis is the real threat,&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire&#8217;s Matt Walsh tweeted, &#8220;They openly admit that they want Trump because they think he&#8217;s easier to beat.&#8221;</p>
<p>Political commentator Stephen L. Miller tweeted, &#8220;Joy Behar putting on a masterclass of saying the quiet part out loud.&#8221;</p>
