The View is back from break to torment its viewers.
No take is too stupid for the show’s co-hosts.
Now The View’s Joy Behar used this scary NFL injury to slander conservatives in the most disgusting way imaginable.
A marquee Monday Night Football matchup between the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals was marred by a terrifying incident in which Bills safety Damar Hamlin collapsed after a seemingly routine collision.
Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest, and is only alive today because paramedics at the game were able to resuscitate him by administering CPR for nine minutes before he was transported to the hospital.
NFL players, as well as athletes in many other sports, have suffered catastrophic head and neck injuries, but a player collapsing because of a cardiac arrest is unique.
And while Hamlin was still fighting for his life in a Cincinnati hospital, The View’s Joy Behar thought it was appropriate to use the situation to slander conservatives and attack all those who are football fans.
Co-host Sunny Hostin first mentioned that her teenage son quit football after a hamstring injury, which drew applause from the crowd.
“He went through physical therapy for six months, and he realized at that point, uh-oh,” Hostin claimed. “I could – that could happen to my brain. And so, he quit. He quit, and it was a very hard thing for him because he loved doing it, and – But I don’t think it’s going to turn people away from the sport because, I mean, I went to Notre Dame. It’s like faith, family, football. It’s a big deal, and it’s a $105 billion industry.”
That’s when Behar chimed in to claim – without providing a shred of evidence – that “only 45% of Americans think that tackle football is appropriate.”
“Heterosexual men voted the most support for kids doing football,” she added. “And conservatives were more likely to support youth tackle football. Just saying.”
The Left has been going after football for decades now.
They don’t like the aggressive nature of the sport, but more specifically, they hate what football represents.
It’s the most popular sport in America by far, and it brings people together.
Football is also a meritocracy, another thing the Left hates.
Left-wing radicals criticize something until they control it or destroy it, and they have been making inroads with football in recent years.
The NFL has gone all-in on Democrats’ “woke” agenda over the past few years, in part to ameliorate criticism from left-wing critics.
But feeding the left-wing outrage mob only emboldens it.
If the radical Left had their druthers, they would ban tackle football in an instant.
