The View struggles to rein in co-host through eclipse segment.
The ladies on ABC daytime talk show “The View” had their hands full with co-host Sunny Hostin Monday, as she falsely blamed “climate change” for a litany of natural phenomena, including the solar eclipse.
During a segment concerning the eclipse, Hostin rambled about the 4.8 magnitude earthquake in New York last week, mentioning a make-up artist who “ran down the hallway” claiming, “Jesus is coming,” and, “The rapture is here.”
Hostin also brought up the eclipse and the upcoming cicada breeding season, saying, “All those things together would maybe lead one to believe that either climate change exists or something is really going on.”
The View ladies struggled through their eclipse segment today.
Sunny Hostin didn’t know how to pronounce “cicadas,” and then she linked earthquakes and the eclipse to climate change.
Joy Behar actually corrected her ?

Hostin’s co-hosts Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg attempted to rein her in.
“Except earthquakes are not at the mercy of climate change. It’s underground. It can’t,” Behar told her, prompting Hostin to ask, “How about the warming of the planet?”
“No, it happens,” Goldberg chimed in. “And the eclipse, they’ve known about the eclipse coming because eclipses happen, and they actually can say when these things are going to happen.”
Goldberg also shut down Hostin’s cicada conspiracy theory, telling her the breeding season happens once every 17 years.
You know things are over-the-top when the crazy ladies on “The View” feel the need to fact check you.

The View’s Sunny Hostin combines an embarrassing lack of intelligence with unbelievably shocking arrogance, which I’ve found is the least charming form of stupidity. https://t.co/YoiAMA9SQy
