British journalist Piers Morgan doubled down Monday on his show in support of canceling the women of “The View,” advocating for their replacement with a more balanced group.
In an op-ed for the New York Post, Morgan blasted “The View” hosts Ana Navarro, Alyssa Farah Griffin, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg, stating that his “worst nightmares” involved being “trapped on a desert island” with them. On “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” the British journalist discussed his piece with progressive YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen, questioning whether the days of Democrats “screaming” about President-elect Donald Trump are over now that they have lost the election.
“I’ve just written a column today for the New York Post about The View, the ABC mid-morning show, because it seemed to me utterly farcical that you have a major network show mid-morning aimed at America in its entirety. It’s a very popular show, where all six hosts, come Election Day, voted for Kamala Harris, and all six of them loathe Donald Trump,” Morgan said.
“I’ve done a column saying, ‘They love to try and cancel Donald Trump. They’ve lost spectacularly. He’s won against that argument. They should be canceled.’ Because, actually, the days of just mainstream media having 98% of the people on it, screaming abuse about Trump, and all being brazen liberals or Democrats, they’re over, aren’t they? I mean, you guys took a drubbing. It’s done. Toast,” Morgan added. “You got to move back to accepting Trump’s here for the next four years. You better get with a bit of the program, because the screaming doesn’t work.”
Cohen then responded by attempting to call out Morgan, recalling how he and Republicans had labeled cancel culture from the left as “bad.” However, Morgan quickly pushed back, pointing out that he had called for the removal of the hosts, not the cancellation of the show altogether.

“I’m ahead of you. My final line says, ‘Given the enthusiasm with which The View hosts, all of them tried so hard to cancel Donald Trump, they should maybe take their own lesson and be canceled.’ Because it’s what they would want. Because they’re now the ones they said Trump was out of step with the American people,” Morgan said.
“They said he was just a little representative of a small number of MAGA people. No, actually, that’s not the case. He’s had a thumping win across the board. Therefore, The View hosts are out of step with the American people. Therefore, they should be canceled. I don’t mean get rid of the show. I mean, get rid of them and replace them with a more balanced team. Maybe you have a few men as well. Me and Geraldo [Rivera] could pop in there,” Morgan said.
Prior to the election, the women of “The View” warned viewers about a second term under President-elect Trump, with Behar claiming that issues like Trump’s proposal for in vitro fertilization (IVF) to be paid for by the government and insurance companies were “Marxist.” After Trump’s victory, Hostin delivered a more than two-minute monologue, expressing how “profoundly disturbed” she was by the former president’s sweeping win in both the Electoral College and the popular vote.
The show also notoriously hosted Vice President Kamala Harris, with SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly calling out the hosts for giving her a “hero’s welcome.” However, despite the support from the women for the vice president, Harris faced major backlash after the episode for stating that “not a thing” came to her mind when asked by Hostin if she would have changed anything about the last four years.
