The hosts of “The View” discussed the anti-Israel protest votes in Michigan’s Democratic primary, with disagreements on the impact of leaving votes uncommitted and Biden’s support for Israel.
Some hosts defended the protest votes as a way to make a point, while others criticized Biden’s stance.
“It’s not that farfetched because he’s crazy,” Joy Behar said.

“They’re not sitting on the couch,” Sunny Hostin said of the uncommitted voters. “These are protest votes.”
The conversation also touched on potential policy changes from the White House regarding Israel and a UN resolution on a ceasefire.
“Now the UN is under attack?” Hostin asked.
“The UN has a long history of having more resolutions against Israel than North Korea and Iran and some of the worst human rights abusers on the planet,” Alyssa Farah Griffin said.
“Her point, the ambassador’s point is, ‘I’m not voting for a ceasefire until the hostages are released.’”
