“Joe Biden’s crime is being Hunter Biden’s father, and being Hunter Biden’s very loving father, very good father, very supportive father,” Navarro proclaimed as the liberally biased audience clapped like seals.
In the midst of her attempt at defending Hunter Biden, Navarro claimed that though in her view Hunter Biden was indeed guilty of influence peddling, most of Washington D.C. was guilty of it as well. And, without evidence, Navarro also declared that people "sitting at this table" have also engaged in influence peddling.
“Look, did Hunter Biden influence peddle on his last name? Yes, he did," Navarro declared. "So did half of Washington. People sitting at this table did it! Did Hunter Biden cheat on his taxes? Yes, he did!”
When she was pushed by her co-hosts as to just who she was referring to, Navarro said it wasn't anyone "currently" on the panel, which caused woke co-host Sunny Hostin to burst out in laughter.
While Navarro didn't name names, ex-View co-host Meghan McCain took the comments to mean Navarro was referring to her, and responded accordingly by
telling the show that she was considering legal action:
I don’t understand why my former colleagues @TheView @ABC bring me up and slander me on an almost weekly basis. It has been years - move on, I have.
I have never been accused of a crime in my life and am a patriotic American - I would never and have never “influenced peddled” in my life, let alone with foreign adversaries. Not all politicians children are the same - and I am no Hunter Biden.
All accusations are absurd, defamatory and slanderous.
I will be consulting my lawyers regarding what was libeled against me on The View this morning.
