The View host Sunny Hostin has claimed that Melania Trump “hates” her husband Donald Trump and believes the former First Lady has spoken out in favor of abortion rights in her new book as a way to “undermine his bid” for the next U.S. elections. .
During Thursday’s episode of the ABC daytime show, Sunny, 55, and the rest of the panel were eager to discuss Melania’s recent comments on abortion, including her statement: “Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I protect.”
After watching a video clip of Melania talking about reproductive rights, Whoopi, 68, grinned and pretended to look shocked when the mother-of-two surmised Sunny: “I think she hates him, we all agree on that, that is a given. I also think she wants to take him out.
“She doesn’t want to be the First Lady anymore,” before referring to when Trump was president, adding, “She destroyed the Rose Garden. Who hates Christmas? Melania Trump hates Christmas. She doesn’t want to decorate for Christmas, she doesn’t want to sleep in the same room as him, she can’t tolerate him.’
Whoopi quickly interjected and said, “Presumably!” as Sunny continued, “So I really think this is her way of undermining his bid for the presidency because then she won’t have to deal with him anymore.

“But that’s how they’re simpatico… she needs the money because he’s broke. So she wants to make the money, now that her memoir is all lively and now that we’re all talking about it, maybe now she’s not as bad as them.
“I think she wants to get him out and she’s doing a damn good job of it,” the lawyer claimed, but Joy Behar was having none of it, saying, “I totally disagree.”
Former White House aide Alyssa Farah Griffin, who used to work for Trump, then chimed in, telling Sunny, “The only reason I disagree with that is — we forget — if Donald Trump loses, he’s probably going to prison.
“We’re actually trying the January 6 case, we’re actually trying the documents case. “I’m not convinced Melania Trump wants to see the father of her children in prison.”
‘She doesn’t even sleep with him! She’s not talking to him!’ Sunny fired back when Alyssa, 35, admitted, “I honestly don’t know anything about their personal relationship.”
Joy, 81, chimed in and said of Melania’s position: “Sixty-two percent of Americans are against overturning Roe v. Wade, the Republican Party knows this. I think they did this to her. I think it’s a big scam.
“They’ve positioned her as the face of the American people who want abortion rights, and they think, maybe she’ll talk.” The only problem is she’s not talking to him…probably.”
‘But besides that, I think this is just a big lie. It’s another lie from that area. Don’t buy it,” the comedian added.

Alyssa then said, “I agree. I think it’s strategic, even though it was written a while ago, and I think they think this will give the Republicans permission or independence to say, “Oh, I guess I could vote for him because people those who support abortion can do so too.”
‘But it’s also money. Who was going to buy this book other than MAGA diehards? But now it’s busy and now we’re talking about it because she’s putting out things that are more interesting.”
Their cohost, Ana Navarro, who was not on the panel for Thursday’s show, also shared her thoughts online, posting about it on Instagram.
Ana, 52, shared a screenshot of an online article about Melania’s quotes and captioned the image: ‘Well, well, well. Melania, who was strongly pro-choice a month before the election, was not on my bingo card.
“JD Vance tried to soften his position and appear sympathetic during the debate. And now this. People, don’t fall for it. They know there is a gender gap with women and they are trying to move it both ways.”
The View host continued, “Actions speak louder than words. We already know what Trump did. He appointed three extremely conservative justices who overturned Roe. Women have suffered and even died because of this.
“Trump has shown us that he will capitulate to the right. He showed us who he is for the first time. Believe him!’
