マージョリー・テイラー・グリーン、共同司会者のジョイ・ベハー氏が共和党が続行するのを「恐れている」と非難した後、ザ・ビューに出演予定

ジョージア州の共和党下院議員マージョリー・テイラー・グリーンは、米国総選挙当日の11月4日火曜日にトーク番組ザ・ ビューにゲスト出演する予定である。

この出演は、共和党が番組への参加を躊躇しているようだと今月初めに述べた共同司会者のジョイ・ベハール氏の最近のコメントに続くものである。ベハール氏は、「我々はもっと多くの共和党議員に参加してもらいたいが、彼らは参加したがらない。彼らは我々を恐れているのだ」と説明した。

番組にはもっと共和党のゲストを迎えたいと思っていますが、彼らは出演するのをためらっているようです。まるで挑戦されることを恐れているようです。

私が続行するように勧められたとき、彼らはノーと言った笑

討論の中でベハール氏は、「多くの共和党員男性は自己主張の強い共和党員女性に脅迫されている」というグリーン下院議員のコメントに言及した。

なぜこれが重要なのか

グリーンの予定されている出演は、いくつかの理由から重要です。

これにより、特に政治的に敏感な時期、つまり選挙当日に、著名な昼間のテレビ番組に強力な保守的な声が加わります。

この問題は、ザ・ビューについてより幅広い政治的視点を持つことについての現在進行中の議論にも関連しています。番組の司会者らは共和党議員をもっと参加させたいと述べているが、保守派は実際には招待されていない、あるいは招待されていても応じないと主張している。

Marjorie Taylor Greene continues to be a controversial figure in American politics. First elected in 2020, she’s a strong supporter of Donald Trump and has a perfect 100% score from Conservative Review based on her voting history.

What the Show (and Whoopi) are Saying

On Thursday’s episode of The View, Whoopi Goldberg said that while Marjorie Taylor Greene’s political views are very different from those of the show’s hosts, she’s open to having the congresswoman as a guest anyway.

Goldberg announced that the guest will be arriving on Tuesday. While they may disagree on many issues, Goldberg emphasized that everyone at the table—including herself and the guest—agrees that the current shutdown shouldn’t harm everyday Americans.

Goldberg described the upcoming guest appearance as an opportunity for open discussion and a meeting of different opinions. However, conservative guests haven’t typically had easy experiences on The View. For example, Cheryl Hines came to discuss her book but ended up facing tough questions about her husband, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which many considered an unfair attack. Donald Trump Jr. also experienced a very confrontational interview during his visit.

Meghan McCain and Candace Cameron Bure, both known for their conservative viewpoints, have shared that they often felt ignored or silenced while working on the show.

Although Goldberg describes Greene’s planned visit as a simple conversation, past experiences suggest Republican guests frequently face a much more hostile environment than expected.

The Conservative Response

Conservatives have pushed back hard against the idea that they are avoiding the show out of fear.

Riley Gaines, a former NCAA swimmer and advocate, shared on Twitter that she was initially asked to appear on a show but was then told it wouldn’t happen.

I’d like to have more Republicans as guests on the show, but they seem hesitant to appear – it’s like they’re afraid of challenging our perspectives.

When I was pitched to go on, they said no lol

So, Clay Travis, a well-known conservative voice, just dropped some emails showing his team actually offered to be on ‘The View’ back in July. He’s responding to Joy Behar’s claim that Republicans are dodging the show, and he’s pretty adamant that’s just not true – he says he’d be glad to come on as a guest. It seems like he’s calling out Behar and inviting himself onto the program to prove his point.

Hi Joy Behar, our producer Ali reached out to The View last July offering us as guests. We’re big fans and hope to be invited on the show soon!

Florida Congressman Byron Donalds publicly reiterated his willingness to appear on The View after previously offering to be a guest but not receiving an invitation.

Hey @TheView, my offer still stands.

I’m ready when you are!

— Byron Donalds (@ByronDonalds) October 16, 2025

It seems the real issue isn’t a reluctance to participate, but rather concerns about whether these opportunities are being presented and handled in a fair way.

Final Thoughts

Having Marjorie Taylor Greene on The View on Election Day could be a smart move for everyone involved. The show gets to look like it’s trying to include different viewpoints, especially at a crucial time. And Greene gets a chance to speak directly to a large audience and potentially counter the idea that Republicans shy away from liberal discussions.

It’s unclear if this will result in more conservative perspectives being featured on daytime television, or if it’s a singular event. However, the groundwork is laid, and all eyes are now on what happens next.
