I'm so glad Alyssa Farah Griffin and Cassidy Hutchinson were able to break free of Donald Trump.💯💯💯💯

“ I didn’t agree with everything they said or did BUT-“ that’s what every former Trump supporter says when pressed about why they ignored all the red flags. but it’s important to point out that those things they said or did were incredibly harmful, racist, sexist, and a slew of other things. I would have more respect if they came out and bluntly said “I know what he said and did was wrong and racist and deplorable but I chose to overlook it and not care because I believe his policies take precedent over the American people and how we treat one another”. THAT is where they stood. Own up to it. I would have way more respect if that’s what came out of their mouth. I don’t think anyone who is the person that Trump is should be president (good policies or not) but these former Trump supporters obviously didn’t feel that way. They thought policy was more important. Fine. But be honest about it. Regardless I’m glad these lady’s are speaking out. No one should get death threats over what they believe politically.

I’m glad Sunny asked her that on national TV because FOX News and Republicans would’ve tried to use that against her if it wasn’t asked.

The fact she adored him at all is sick.

It boggles my mind how Cassidy and Alyssa "adored" the sack of sh*t and did not see the evil in him from the very beginning. Very disturbing.

This is like someone who has broken free of a cult, or abusive relationship.

She never really answered why she adored that man.

Whoopi were right "it seemed like she was in a cult" 💯💯💯💯

I am proud of her at 25 yrs old, she stood up. But I am more proud of her parents because they did a good job.

I love Joys digs. They’re subtle but on point.

It’s called narcissistic abuse. The human mind is vulnerable. Especially beautiful, intelligent powerful women. It’s a sickening situation to be in. Narcissists know who to bring close to them. They know who they can use and abuse. I am so proud of both of these women, that were brave. They were brave to stand up to one of the most corrupt and disgusting human being. Bravo to both of you. Powerful men find you. They eat away and your mind. They eat away at your common sense. They move on to eat away at your morals. In the end, they eat away at yourself. That’s what a hierarchy in a cult does. They choose the most talented and vulnerable people to do the dirty work. When all is said and done, they blame it on you.

We’ve all made mistakes. Admitting them is a great feat as it is more difficult than it should be.

It’s a good reminder to never forget these folks were complicit. They do not deserve our admiration.

Why would a 25 year old woman find a man who is old enough to be her grandfather charming, especially if the old man is Donald Trump???

It is beyond my understanding how anyone can adore Trump. In 1980, I was also 25 and I had figured out at that age that he was a con artist.

Can you imagine if Meghan McCain was there? She'd berate Cassidy and call her an opportunist. This is a brave woman who deserves respect and to be heard

Cassidy Hutchinson was only 25 years old in that testimony. What a brave young lady. I'm also in my early twenties and it takes a lot of courage for her to give her testimony.💯💯💯💯

Standing up and speaking out is the honourable thing to do. So, thank you for your courage! I can relate to the experience. What happens with psychopaths and narcissists is that they GROOM people to "adore" them. I was a victim of this sick practice. My eldest brother invested a lot of attention on me and made me believe he "cares" for me. Little did I know that he had BIG PLANS to fulfil his agenda of ABSOLUTE DOMINATION in our family. I was loyal to him, defended him and fought fights I shouldn't have. Until I read a letter written by one of his children (my brother has many children with different women) who went to great lengths explaining how he lived a FALSE LIFE thinking his father was one thing then realising that he was actually a MONSTER. My brother divided the people in his life to deliberately DECEIVE and CONCEAL the truth. I later learned that it is/was critical that he CONTROLLED THE NARRATIVE to fulfil his AGENDA and REIGN SUPREME over all of us. It takes a LONG TIME TO REALISE that you have been groomed all along and when you do, you are KICKED LIKE A DOG a just like all the other people who were ABUSED by the same person you adored. My father used to say, "You can fool some people sometimes but you cannot fool everyone all the time". My father tried to discipline my brother when he was alive but my brother hated my father for that. He wanted WANTED WHAT HE WANTED - sleeping with numerous women under in our parents house, amongst other things. My brother never learned from our parents principled characters instead lied about how they had FAVOURITES. That said, it is DEVASTATING but a necessary process for ENLIGHTENMENT, FREEDOM and GROWTH. I want to point out that this is a PERSONALITY DISORDER and there is no cure for it. Us former victims can EMPOWER ourselves with information on how to manage ourselves. Unfortunately, we can't control a narcissist. Personally, I have tried to speak about the condition to others and support our family. By consolidating our lives experiences, I can speak truth to power. We cannot be silenced. I agree, ENOUGH! Let's support those who speak up and expose these ills.

I don’t believe her!! She was power hungry! She quit after 💩hit the fan

All these people are all the same they write ✍️ books 📚 and make money. 🤐🥴

Joy and the daddy comment LOL

Having been part of a religious cult for almost 20 years, I understand how this young woman could be so loyal to someone as despicable as DJT.

His nasty behavior didn’t seem to bother her all the time she was working. She kept her mouth shut. Now she needs money.

She testified first then wrote the book. That’s knowing right and wrong.

Excellent discussion. Really glad to see someone take a closer look at Trump's organization in terms of a cult b/c that's exactly what it is. I had a similar experience to Cassidy's when she went to Mar-a-Lago after 1/6 when I was going through changes with a boyfriend who had mental health issues. He'd been seriously threatening me, but I felt in order to be responsible and true to the relationship I should stick with him and try to work it out. Wrong. I was most fortunate to cross paths with a mental health nurse at a laundromat who set me straight. She advised me to get out any time anyone threatens you in any manner like that. They can become dangerous. She was right. Long story short - I laced up my little PF Flyers and never looked back.

Cassidy definitely gave cult survivor vibes. They thought *Cheato* was their savior. In the end, he couldn't even save himself.

Her having to go into hiding is crazy! I can't even imagine living like that. The rest of America really need to think about that for a minute. Never ever did i ever think i would ever hear someone utter these words in America. Where are we? This sounds very old time Soviet Union and some can argue we might see this in present day Russia.

Joy Behar is always asking the good questions. 💯💯💯💯

Respect to this young woman. She's reflected and battled with herself and her own values and morals. She's on the right side of history. I appreciate her honesty.

"Is he that charismatic eating those cheeseburgers?" 🤣

She did a good job with this interview.

Her mom is probably quite relieved

Her description was eerily similar to what cult survivors have said after leaving. Glad women like her are stepping up when supposed "men" won't for whatever reason to tell the truth on what was going on in Trump's White House.

"Daddy issues" 😂😂😂 Joy is not afraid to go there!!

I love how careful she is with her words, it takes real skill to be actively concious of your choice of words.

She lost me adoring 🤡. I just assumed she was just a staffer who just so happened to work under Trump

Cassidy is great at explaining how many people ended up following Adolf Hitler

Joy, “tell me what to do daddy” she's so messy I love it 😂❤

January 6th was her red line 🫤 ? Anything that happened before ... is cool ? 🤢🤮

Thank you Whoopi!! I was yelling at the TV 😂 "it was a CULT" it is very sad - all the people who were trapped in this web. She is very very brave... thank you ❤

She was young and manipulated. She's a lovely young lady. Glad she stood up for herself!!!

Her testimony showed true bravery. Sadly, she suffered the consequences with threats against her life. Sounds like she was a member of a cult when she worked was with him. I’m glad Whoopi said it after I thought it myself

None of these people have a legit reason for supporting trump. PERIOD.

Thanks Sonny for bringing up how he said Mexicans were rapists. He has a long list of absurd and insulting sayings. But let’s not forget none of them.

Credit to CH for her integrity and bravery

How smart can she really be if she once "adored" Donald Trump. Yech.

I love Joy😅 she sees right thru all the phonies!

I want to hear more from Stephanie Grisham

Remarkable young woman. Very brave.

Very brave woman and deserves respect and appriciation. She should be heard because not much is like her in america

Articulate, eloquent honesty! From someone so young and who has gone through so much, kudos!

Sunny shouts "allegedly" at the end, BUT, 10 secs earlier, Cassidy said with her own mouth, “I smelled smoke on Mark!’, so why are the View’s lawyer’s screaming in Sunny’s ear?

I’m a Democrat. And I’ll be the first to say that we as Democrats prioritize seeing the whole individual and looking out for the well-being of that individual. However, when it comes to MAGA and former MAGA folks, we seem so unforgivable. That “individual-focused, holistic approach” goes out the window. As much as I feel angry that she and Alyssa used to adore DJT, and I can’t for the life of me understand it, I’m so glad they see the light now. People are salvageable. Sometimes it takes an unfortunate tragedy. Most of the times, it can just take a conversation.

Cassidy and Alyssa shouldn't receive any empathy from the public because they were well aware of what they were getting into. I'm relieved that they're not portraying themselves as martyrs, at the very least.

Notice how Sunny didn't clap for her during her welcome.

The affection that Alyssa and Cassidy have for each other is so pure. Alyssa looks so proud of her

I'm glad Alyssa Farah Griffin, Stephanie Grisham, Cassidy Hutchinson, Sara Matthews, and the rest were finally able to break free of Donald Trump. 👏👏👏👏

Absolutely. I'm glad the hosts pointed out that she absolutely sounds like somebody who was a victim of cult brainwashing. I thought that when I listened to her on Rachel Maddow last night; the way she described her experience was absolutely cultish. I'm sure she's probably getting therapy, but just in case I'm going to say this: she needs serious deprogramming therapy. No disrespect, but she sounds like somebody who is vulnerable to this kind of thing. If she doesn't get therapy, at best she's going to go through some difficult times, but at worst she could slip back into it.

This lady is tough. I truly respect her courage and brilliance. I am glad the ladies at the table are respectful towards her. They have asked hard questions but they have done so respectfully. So, thank you for being kind to this young lady who is truly outstanding. God bless you all.

Something about her rubs me the wrong way!!!

The hosts hit the nail on the head when they asked "didn't you realize you were part of a cult?" And unfortunately, that cult still has millions of active members looking to elevate this criminal & traitor.

The adoration towards this person for doing the bare minimum "Telling the truth" is astounding. I have no respect for anyone who served him with blinders on, and then decided to write a book.

I wish they could just be honest in saying that they were with him because they just wanted to get ahead politically. They wanted to see how much power they would get by standing by him even if his ideas, polices and etc., were unhinged. Power is addicting.

loyalty should never come before integrity

Not gonna lie I was nervous when Sunny asked her question cause she can be real cut throat but this was a good interview everyone did great

I’ve thought since I was a teenager that organized religion trains you to be more susceptible to cults.

She did the bare minimum and gets a book deal.

Miss Hutchinson is very brave. It is hard to do the right thing sometimes but she did it.

They groomed her for that position, just like all cults and abusers do. They saw she was young, eager, and ambitious, and when eyebrows im sure would raise concerning her age, the fact that she was smart and pretty probably allayed some of those concerns, which im sure all was by design regarding her handlers and Trump. She was far far far too young and enexperieneced for such a position. But im glad she came to her sense and flipped the script on them, cuz they were ready to, and did try to for a year, to throw her under a bus and ruin the rest of her life.

BRAVO to this BRAVE Woman!!! She is a TRUE Patriot!!! The TRUTH MATTERS!!! The TRUTH ALWAYS Sets us FREE!!!

They have the hardest time answering that question.

It’s giving opportunists stop it!

Joy Behar "tell me what to do daddy" 😂😂😂😂

Career over party, party over country

Watching her testimony, I am reminded of the saying: “He who is without sin cast the first stone.” No one is free of making mistakes. Maybe not all of us fell for the Trump cult, but we have made other mistakes and done other wrongs. Admitting those mistakes is very hard. I admire Cassidy for doing that, very publicly, and making amends! Her struggle is very real, and very relatable! She did the right thing. I admire her for that!

Bless both of these young ladies!

Since women are very good at spotting liars, Sunny (by her looks) knows this girl is faking. Nevertheless, I enjoy the show they are putting on with the way they are acting.

She is an American hero

You are living in my home state. I identified with you. How did we get here? When did we lose the importance of telling the truth. I too need to tell the truth and even when there is a price to pay. What I new was that speaking truth to the Father was my job. I will pray for you young lady and, may I ask you to pray for me. We must bring the truth out of the darkness. I too live in NJ. Maybe someday our paths will cross. God Bless and keep on following the truth. Anne

Listening to one of the questions in regard to J6 and staying honestly made me reflect on my own DV relationship. Some people think "they need me" only I can change them. Mind games, demanded loyalty and blindness can make you truly who you are.

If she really did it out of patriotism and moral righteousness then why benefit from it, for Some reason there’s always a book deal in these things.

❤ for Cassidy! We need more truth speakers!

I read her book, and she was brave for what she went through

Dear Cassidy 🕊🙂 "No sympathy for the devil" 🕊❤🇺🇸

She has more guts , then men 2x her age

I thank Cassidy Hutchinson from the bottom of my heart! She opened The Pandora Box that had to be opened for Our Country’s Highest Good! #SAVEDemocracy!🇺🇸 #LOCKHIMUP!

Cassidy has been incredably brave through all of this! She has moew 🎾🎾 than all those atrocious men who refused to stand up to Drumpf and tell the truth! I give her a huge amount kudos for her honesty and for standing up fo4 herself and the people of America!!! Thank you, Cassidy!!! 💚🙏🏻☮️☘️

I agree it sounds like a cult. I was always saying to myself where are the people to help him, stop him from making mistakes. No one could have given him any advice.

What a brave lady with such great insight on why people adore Trump. I wish her all the happiness & success going forward.

Thank you, Whoopi and Joy, for bringing up the "You were in a cult" topic. I think it's very important to understand the psychological manipulation Trump uses (especially on young women) to create a dependency on him / desire to protect him. She mentions thinking "If only good people like me were around him, he'd do the right thing". Then she finally admits "He is a grown man. These were his ideas." She broke free of the cult, but she was definitely a cult member until she did! Very important interview for getting at this point!

It takes bravery to speak up when so few are

I will always admire Sunny for being PREPARED ! I really don't think none of them on that table, read, watch, research as much as her and the questions/follow-ups show that ! Personally I'm trying to understand the guest but no after all of what Trump did you made a personal decision to stay and now you're coming to cry and sell a book, yeah I'm not accepting all of this display...

He made those decisions because he listened to the people telling him what he wanted to hear.

Can we just call it what it is? Alyssa and this lady were part of the cult.

I’m glad she saw the light even though it was too little too late. At least she‘s changed for the better.

She knew what was coming the same goes for Alyssa

We love the view

She’s just another grifter, only on the right side now because she can make money off it. Not impressed.

sounds like an abusive relationship……not holding the person accountable, blaming the victim, the victim believing its their job to fix things.

Long live Cassidy H. Liz Ch. & John B. three American heroes standding to the NUT, may justice prevale in America, !!!!!!!.
