Joy Behar complained on Tuesday that it was time to “do something” about President Donald Trump — and she argued that just getting out in the streets to protest and even voting were not cutting it anymore.
Behar claimed that it was time for Trump to go, saying that Americans were just going to have to “step up” and make that happen, although she was largely unclear as to how that would work, logistically speaking.

“I think this is the end of it now for [President Trump]. It has to be. And Americans need to step up now. It’s not enough to go into the streets. It’s not enough to vote,” she said. “I believe that people need to start calling their congressmen and their Senators.”
“I mean, he has eroded civil rights at this point, he’s erasing history … he’s wrecking the economy, it’ll be decades before we get back to where we’re supposed to be, and he’s alienating us from our friends in NATO,” Behar claimed, as the cohosts voiced their agreement. “And all because he’s not getting his award.”
“You know, the shrinks call that a narcissistic injury,” Behar continued. “And that is what will get us into World War III because his ego is involved. And the only thing that Americans can do, including us, I mean, we have a forum here and we speak out.”
Behar went on to claim that people loved “The View” for exactly that reason — and she called on the audience to call their representatives and say, “It’s time to do something about this guy, because he’s leading us into World War III.”
Sunny Hostin followed Behar, claiming that Trump was only after Greenland because he wanted the rare earth minerals — and that people should take him seriously when he postured about taking the island nation by force.
Behar interrupted then, claiming that she blamed Congress because she believed the president was not well and held them responsible for failing to do something about it. The 25th Amendment was mentioned, but as Alyssa Farah Griffin pointed out, that would have to come from the president’s own cabinet.
