Responding to a few clips of Trumps appearances over the years on “The View,” Behar quipped, “Who knew he was such a psycho?”
“I liked the guy in a way,” she admitted. “It was like, oh, hes a New York character. And now, you know …”
“We know the beast,” Behar continued, suggesting that New York didnt vote for Trump because they knew him better than anyone else. (RELATED: Joy Behar: Female Trump Voters Dont Know The Difference Between A Predator And A Protector)
“We knew him. We get it,” she explained. “Just like Michael Bloomberg said, I know a con man when I see one, and hes a con man. New York is hip to it. The rest of the country didnt know him the way we do.”

Host Ari Melber jumped in, calling the president a “creative con type of salesman” and claiming that the term “Fake News” was actually coined in reference to the fake “right-wing articles” that allegedly helped Trump win in 2016, and that the president had latched onto the term and made it his own.
Behar concluded the segment by backing off her previous claims that Trump was a “secret Democrat.” She said, “I thought he was also a secret Democrat. Which he shows hes not. Hes not a Republican or a Democrat. Hes an anarchist in my opinion.”
