“The View” host Joy Behar denigrated former President Donald Trump’s supporters during Thursday’s broadcast on ABC News, claiming that they were just like drug addicts or alcoholics who cared more about feeding their addiction than about what happened to the people around them.
Behar and her cohosts, who happily joined in the pile-on once she made the initial comparison, continued to describe how supporting Trump, like having an addiction, was bad for both the addicts and for the people around them.

“His base is addicted to the lies, you know?” Behar began. “They’re addicted, and I have a friend who was a drug counselor, and he said that nothing trumps an addiction. An addiction trumps everything.”
The other cohosts started talking all at the same time, but Behar continued.
“Even relationships, which is why if you’re in a relationship with a drug addict or a gambler or an alcoholic, you’ll never have a chance,” she said.

“They weren’t addicted to the lies before Trump,” Ana Navarro insisted, interrupting and arguing that supporting Trump had meant that they had to accept all of the bad things she claimed that he stood for. “They’re addicted to Trump and that means accepting racism, it means accepting lies, it means accepting hostility …”
All of the hosts started talking at once, shouting over each other, but after a few minutes, Behar was able to regain control of the table long enough to make a reference to propaganda as it was used in Nazi Germany.
“You know the ‘big lie’ was created by, you know, Goebbels,” Behar said. “Back in the 30s, the big lie, you keep lying and lying and lying, people get —”
“But if you admit that you believe the lies, you have to admit that you were duped,” Sunny Hostin interrupted. “And they can’t admit to being duped.”
“They want to believe it,” Behar said as the segment came to a close.
