Alyssa Farah Griffin, current co-host of “The View” and former White House communications director under President Donald Trump, expressed genuine amazement Tuesday about his profiteering presidency — and said on CNN, “Nothing sticks to Trump. I mean, it’s Teflon Don.”
“I just think of the things that we Republicans were outraged with, with Hunter Biden, when [former President Joe] Biden was in office,” Griffin told “AC360” host Anderson Cooper. “‘He’s profiteering off of these, you know, his artistry and these pictures he was drawing.’”
She continued, “This is next level. It’s really next level.”
“Sorry,” apologized Cooper while struggling to suppress laughter.
“But, while it doesn’t really stick with Donald Trump, it does potentially stick with Republicans down-ballot, heading into the midterms when the gas prices are high, when the cost of everything seems through the roof, having to defend these sorts of things,” said Griffin.
She said “a billion-dollar ballroom” is getting “increasingly harder” for Republicans to justify.
