Don jr has a good research team - he did some prep on these fools before going on the show.

You don’t debate leftist to change their mind. That’s impossible.
You do it for the 3rd person. Be it audience or innocent bystander.

Whoopie's former boyfriend, Ted Danson, wore blackface too. Nice how they cut to commercial the moment Jr. mentioned Polanski.

'"Here's @TheView's Joy Behar admitting on national TV that she in fact wore blackface. '
'Why are they denying it now?" asked Trump Jr. '
'Trump Jr. appeared on the show to promote his new book, "Triggered: How the Left Thrives on Hate and Wants to Silence Us," that was released on Tuesday. '
'"We've all done things that we regret, I mean, if we're talking about bringing a discourse down, Joy, you've worn blackface," he responded. '
'The tweet prompted others to mock Behar for what they argued was a "gotcha" moment. '

Interesting that everyone is sensationalizing Joy/blackface and not Whoopi/Polanski child rape comment.

Why conservatives and pro-Trump people even go on these shows - The View, specifically - is the question. Why allow and oxygen in that room. Let them go into the ether of their own echo chamber by just being stupid but without the help of those of us on the right side of history.
