According to Politico, “The View” is apparently trying to find someone to fill the lone conservative seat vacated by Meghan McCain a while back. They’ve had on some good people like Condoleezza Rice and Jedediah Bila, but they’re looking for someone permanent. They’re having trouble, though, finding a conservative who isn’t Never Trump but also isn’t an apologist for the January 6 “insurrection.” And it has to be a woman.
I'm sorry, why is being a Never Trumper somehow disqualifying? https://t.co/HOx2zMFgoY

Because you’re tedious and won’t talk about anything but Trump.
We can actually think of a bunch of people who we feature on Twitchy all the time.
"Why can't we find a conservative who will never say anything to make us uncomfortable but also isn't a boring NeverTrumper who isn't actually really conservative anyway?" https://t.co/S1AvSIr1Be

It’s getting harder and harder to find people with approved views. I think it’s important that what people think be determined by a special class of people. https://t.co/Cnmh48ZLHH

Honestly, a perfect illustration of how US political commentary is reverse-engineered: media figures try to figure out the sweet spot on any given issue based on various social dynamics, and then beeline for that point, rather than actually following facts where they lead https://t.co/DKiXXCeaBM

'The View' is a pit of vipers. There's no reason to root for it. https://t.co/tPu0VX9Bh0

That ABC would even consider grifter and DNC flack @ananavarro is ridiculous and laughable. https://t.co/sowCiyuCFr

Republican strategist Ana Navarro? Like Republican strategist Rick Wilson?

I’m happy to guest host on The View for a few shows. Guarantee it would be blast.
Maybe not for the other hosts or the audience though. https://t.co/0DL5ly6Hdt

Oh, please. Just admit you want a show of liberals for liberals. It would be best for all of us if people could just be truthful. https://t.co/96TLld7LFO

Finding an approved conservative who's mostly liberal and won't beat up on the lame-ass hosts of @TheView is really what they want. https://t.co/EBtm6O5kV7

Most conservatives believe 1/6 was bad and the election wasn’t stolen. They also don’t buy liberal orthodoxy that censoring Biden scandals didn’t affect the election or that The View hosts’ own excuses for political riots should be tolerated. That’s the real issue. https://t.co/ieF4d6P4lW

Yep.
Only because the producers are very very stupid. https://t.co/a57fKJsvkd

Oh no.
Just cancel the show, nobody will notice https://t.co/aP6FHoFwnv

Clearly the answer is to cancel The View https://t.co/nBuDhURWMy

If they don’t end up with Jen Rubin, it will be a younger clone of Jen Rubin.
