Here’s some popcorn viewing for Republicans. ABC’s The View announced on Thursday that Vice President J.D. Vance will appear on the show on Tuesday to discuss current events as well as his new book Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith.
Vance will be the third sitting vice president to appear, after Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. All six co-hosts are expected to participate — Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin and Ana Navarro.
Whoopi Goldberg announced the forthcoming event and actually said Vance’s name out loud — unlike the way she avoids saying Trump’s name.

Nick Fondacaro’s NewsBusters study noted The View had a total of 341 guests in 2025 — 128 liberal guests to just two who were identified as conservative, while 128 were liberal. The two were Rep.

Some conservatives think this isn’t worth Vance’s time, as the hosts will surely ambush him and press him to denounce President Trump on something, anything. Liberals suggest this happened because FCC Chairman Brendan Carr is probing whether the show violates equal-time requirements for candidates — but Vance isn’t a candidate this year.
