Yahoo Lifestyle Joy Behar spaces out on “The View”, repeats point Whoopi Goldberg made 6 seconds earlier: 'She just said that!'
Behar said she's "still a little sick" when her cohosts laughed at her immediately repeating Goldberg's talking point about Project 2025.

Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, and Joy Behar on 'The View'Joy Behar has returned to The View following a week-long hiatus to open her new play, though her thoughts might've lingered (slightly) back on the New York City stage on Tuesday morning's broadcast.
Across the 82-year-old's first appearance back at the Hot Topics table after taking some time off to work on her new production of My First Ex-Husband, the panelists broke down speculation that President Donald Trump is working to fulfill elements of the controversial Project 2025 political agenda.
"There are those people who come out and they have that thing, you know, I just find it so interesting because.... he's put so much power in so many different people's hands. He set them all up to fail and, I said it yesterday, for him to have no responsibility," Goldberg said of Trump. "So, when they say, 'Hey, that guy Elon Musk did this,' he says, 'I don't know, I had nothing to do with it.' Like when he said [he's] never heard of Project 2025, never heard of it, never saw the book, don't know what you're talking about."
Behar, whose eyes were on Goldberg virtually the entire time that the Ghost actress spoke, then chimed in roughly six seconds after Goldberg's point was made.
"Well he also lied about this 2025 thing that he's doing," Behar said as the studio audience — and cohost Sara Haines — laughed.

Goldberg immediately threw the show to a commercial break after Behar finished her sentence.

During her extended hiatus from The View table, Behar missed a string of headline-making developments, including former panelist Star Jones making a notable return to the cohosting lineup and Goldberg taking aim at a pesky AI scam targeting people online while using her likeness.
The View airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on ABC.
