It’s becoming a familiar scene on ABC’s The View: the co-hosts spinning news to cover up for Joe Biden and the Democrats while attacking Republicans and President Trump. On Friday, the hosts were spinning the recent news of classified documents having been found in Biden’s Delaware garage and former Obama official Sunny Hostin was the most egregious in her defense of the President.
Despite having dubiously suggested on Thursday that Republicans may have planted the documents there, Hostin refused to walk back her conspiracy and instead floated a contrived excuse for why Biden was not transparent with the American people: he was distracted by the holidays.
Self-described conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin pointed out the “terrible fact pattern” surrounding the case and how the Biden White House hid this from Americans for months. “He knew of the second tranche that was found in his garage on December 20th, but we only know now because the press was going to report it and they came forward,” she said.
But Hostin was having none of it, spinning the story to make it look like the President had done everything right. She even ridiculously claimed that it was “palatial” of the White House to take six weeks to investigate the case.
The most egregious excuse from Hostin, however, was her suggestion that the lack of transparency with the public was due to the holidays. “I will also say I think the holidays helped them out a little bit. You’re talking about December 20th, then you’re talking about Christmas Eve, Christmas day, New Year’s eve, and then finally when they get back when everybody gets back, that’s when they say, ‘we found these extra things.’”
It’s clear that the Democrats and their allies in the media are not interested in the truth but rather in protecting the Biden administration at all costs. They will say and do anything to do so – even if it means making up ridiculous excuses and spinning the facts.
Joy Behar admitted that “all that looks different but I think it still looks bad for Biden. I do. I think it doesn’t look good for him.” However, Ana Navarro attempted to spin the story and huffed that the documents were no big deal because “nobody was missing them for seven years.”
At the end of the day, it’s clear that the Democrats and their allies in the media will go to any lengths to protect Biden and his administration. They are willing to make up ridiculous excuses and spin the facts to do so. It’s time for the Democrats to be honest and transparent with the American people instead of trying to cover up the truth.
