"You can't advertise the feelings people are having at their dinner tables out of them," the ABC host says The post ‘The View’ Host Sara Haines Trashes Trump’s ‘Completely Inappropriate’ Taxpayer-Funded Ad: ‘Where Is DOGE When You Need It?’ appeared first on TheWrap .
President Trump has unveiled a series of ads for the upcoming midterm elections, funded by taxpayer money, which has sparked criticism from various parties. On "The View," host Sara Haines jokingly wished for Elon Musk's DOGE, a proposed Department of Government Efficiency created by Musk, to address such situations. The hosts watched one of the ads, in which Trump mentioned "casting out the Communists" and "demolishing the deep state."
Sunny Hostin pointed out that Kristi Noem was fired for using $200 million of taxpayer money for DHS ads, questioning why Trump thinks it's acceptable for him to do so. Haines jokingly referred to DOGE again, highlighting its unfortunate track record, such as cutting essential employees and programs, while the federal government spent an estimated $9.5 billion on employees not working the previous year.
"The View" hosts were serious in their criticism of the ads, with Haines calling them "completely inappropriate" and expressing that they felt like a waste of public time and resources.
