Joy Behar may have been aiming at President Donald Trump with her insults, but the shrapnel hit the women who support him across the nation.
Female Trump supporters came under fire by “The View” co-host as she blasted the president on Tuesday’s show for saying he “regrets” not having a softer tone at times.
Behar suggested Trump’s comments were motivated by his desire to appeal to more women voters.
“He said it — he said it because he realizes that women like him less than menstrual cramps. That’s why he said it,” she announced to audience approval.
“He now has, like, this moment where he says, gee. They don’t like me because do you see the numbers? The women are out there voting in droves. He now realizes that,” she added.
But not content to just attack the president, Behar then seemed to question the intelligence of the women who support him.
“The women who still like him say that he is a protector. A hero. That he protects –” she began.
“Their way of life and their values,” co-host Sunny Hostin interjected.
“They don’t know the difference between a predator and a protector because as far as I can tell, he is the one grabbing women by the you know what,” Behar said.
Her comments triggered a backlash on Twitter.
Dear @JoyVBehar We don’t need a protector we need an enforcer and that’s why we are winning, sincerely…a female, United States Navy Veteran (or whatever)??????

This college educated, suburban female mom does. The protector is in the WH and the predators are tripping through Mexico.

Apparently the women supporting Trump are not the only target for liberals following the midterm elections Tuesday. Conservative white women have become the new scapegoat for Democrat losses across the nation.
White women are a Republican constituency, and in many states they again voted as if patriarchy would protect them. 50 percent or more for DeSantis, Cruz, and Kemp. I am unsure when they will understand the damage that they do, and not just to themselves. https://t.co/onJN2BqRvM

They apparently “uphold white supremacy through their vote.”
deleted a couple tweets because i don’t think they accurately expressed what i was trying to say.
white women uphold white supremacy through their vote. they have no qualms about hurting women of color, and that’s an objective truth.

White Women.
I swear to God.
Y’all are infuriating.
And before you #NotAllWhiteWomen me (which will get you blocked) tell me you are COMMITTED to flipping 10 of your alabaster friends from red to blue by 2020. It’s not enough to be “not racist.” You must be *anti-racist.* pic.twitter.com/R0S9r1l64k

And it looks like the “vagina-shaming” has only just begun.
There’s no way this vagina-shaming will backfire. https://t.co/YQ50SI7ksa

But that backfiring will be more than entertaining to watch.
Liberals should browbeat white women more about how they are awful gender traitors and probably crypto racists to boot. That’ll probably do the trick in 2020.

White women suck unless they beat conservative POC and then it’s okay because intersectionality or something.
— Bridget Phetasy (@BridgetPhetasy) November 7, 2018
It’s a progressive victory and suburban women are heroes for disobeying their husbands unless the candidate loses and in that case it’s racism and entirely the fault of white women. I think I get it now.
