āThe Viewāsā Joy Behar told Vice President JD Vance he has a āgood vibeā and should run for president.
The Republican politician appeared on the show Tuesday. Behar spoke about the interview with executive producer Brian Teta on the āBehind the Tableā podcast.
Behar admitted she doesnāt believe Vance is a ābad guy.āĀ
She added it would be āinterestingā to see him and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) running against each other in 2028.
āIām getting a note here. You told him during the break that he should run for president because he had a good vibe,ā Teta said.
āI think that ā even though for a Republican, mind you. Iām not a Republican. I think possibly I voted forMichael Bloombergonce for mayor who was supposedly,ā Behar said, referring to the former Mayor of New York City.
Behar said she doesnāt mind Republicans being elected ā as long as it is on a local level.
āI donāt mind a Republican on the city level because it needs a little discipline, but on the national level, I want somebody with a good heart, and those are more in the Democratic Party in my opinion,ā she said. āThey care about the poor, they help people. The Republican Party is much more about saving taxes for rich people. So Iām not a Republican.ā
āTruthfully, as I said to you at the beginning of this conversation, I donāt think that heās a bad guy,ā she said of Vance. āSo if he runs against, say, Gavin Newsom, that would be an interesting debate to see those two because theyāre both intelligent.ā
Behar also joked President Donald Trump may be getting ājealousā after seeing āThe Viewā hosts getting along with Vance.
She added she drew the line with Vance is him chalking up his past criticism of Trump ā before joining his administration ā to the mediaās depiction of the president.
āDonāt give me that. Thatās where I draw the line on the guy. Donāt blame me for the fact ā you went to Yale law school, you canāt read between the lines? You canāt watch something and discern whatās going on? Come on,ā she said.
On the show, Vance said Behar told him off-air that he was āfineā for a Republican.
āJoy said when we were off air that Iām fine, which I think is about the best endorsement Iām gonna get out of Joy Behar,ā he said.
āFor a Republican,ā Behar added.
āGraded on a curve here at āThe View,āā Vance said.

If Vance is the primary candidate winner for 2028, Behar and her cohorts in the media will make him as āevilā as Trump.
