The tension exploded on ABC’s “The View” after former co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck confronted Sunny Hostin over what a glaring double standard regarding presidential war powers.
During a heated exchange about President Donald Trump’s military strikes against Iran, Hasselbeck pressed Hostin on why she was now calling Trump’s actions “illegal” while appearing to excuse similar actions taken by Barack Obama during the 2011 Libya intervention.
What followed was a brutal on-air confrontation that ended with Whoopi Goldberg abruptly cutting to a commercial break.
Hasselbeck came prepared with receipts.
