Alyssa Farah Griffin of ‘The View’ said back in January, that if Trump got the hostages freed, that she would wear a MAGA hat on the show. Is she going to keep her promise?
She certainly should.
While her co-hosts carefully worded their statements today in order to not give Trump any credit, Griffin at least gave him praise for making the impossible happen.
FOX News reports:
ABC’s “The View” lauded the safe return of Israeli hostages on Monday, with co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin praising her former boss Donald Trump and his administration’s key role in the historic moment.
If this deal holds, Griffin said, it is a “massive diplomatic achievement.”
“The whole world can breathe a sigh of relief,” she said. Earlier, co-host Whoopi Goldberg played clips of celebrations of the current peace in the war-torn area, saying, “we can all pray that it stays that way.”
Griffin said there were no Jews around the world who didn’t feel the impact of Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas terrorists went on a horrific rampage, killing more than 1,100 people and kidnapping 250 others, including young children.
“Whether you like Trump or not, I think he, I think [Special Envoy] Steve Witkoff, and I think Jared Kushner do deserve credit for this deal,” Griffin said, noting the direct negotiations between the latter two and Hamas.
This is what Griffin said in January:
Griffin pledged in January to wear a MAGA hat if Trump freed the Israeli hostages.
“If he gets the Israeli hostages out, I promise i will wear a MAGA hat for one day on the show, and say, ‘Thank you for doing it,’” she said on the show.

While those are nice comments, especially coming from someone at ‘The View’ we really want to see Griffin don a MAGA hat, like she said she would. The world is waiting, Alyssa.
