The Washington Post spent decades lecturing America about misinformation while printing whatever Democrats needed printed.
Now a CNBC anchor sat down on The View to praise a Trump policy – and the panel had no answer.
So Whoopi Goldberg cut her off mid-sentence and ran a commercial.
How Sara Eisen Explained Trump Accounts to a Panel That Refused to Listen
Guest co-host Sara Eisen, anchor at CNBC, came prepared Thursday with something the permanent View panel almost never brings: an honest assessment of a Trump policy that actually works.
"Sometimes, when it comes to President Trump, you have to separate the character from the policies," Eisen told the table.
She then walked through Trump Accounts – the program signed into law through the One Big Beautiful Bill that seeds $1,000 from the U.S. Treasury into a tax-advantaged investment account for every American child born between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2028.

Behar immediately began making audible noises to disrupt her.
When that didn't work, she hijacked the segment entirely.
"What disappoints me about this entire conversation," Behar announced, "is that there's no effort put into solar energy."
She then looked down at her notes to remind viewers that Trump once said he didn't understand windmills – and took her shot.
"I think he's more worried about his hair than anything else here," she said.
The Trump Accounts Numbers Joy Behar Would Not Let on Air
That $1,000 from Treasury – invested on day one in a low-cost U.S. index fund – grows to an estimated $18,000 by the time a child turns 28, based on historical S&P 500 averages.
Parents can contribute up to $5,000 per year on top of that.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent launched the program in January alongside an astonishing show of private sector support.
Michael and Susan Dell pledged $6.25 billion to fund accounts for children in lower-income zip codes – the largest single private investment in American children in U.S. history.
Uber, Intel, IBM, Nvidia, Goldman Sachs and BlackRock have all committed to contribute through employee benefit programs.
As of late January, approximately 500,000 families had filed IRS Form 4547 to open accounts – in the first three days of the 2026 tax filing season alone.

The Heritage Foundation put it plainly: Trump Accounts are "the Left's worst nightmare" because they teach kids to be savers, investors, and owners rather than dependents.
None of this made it to The View's audience Thursday.
Why The View Shut Down a CNBC Anchor Before She Could Finish
That's when Goldberg stepped in.
"We've got to go," she announced, cutting Eisen off mid-argument. "We'll be right back."
A finance journalist from CNBC – not Fox, not Breitbart, CNBC – sat down to explain a policy that puts real money into working families' hands.
And the moderator of The View shut her down before she could finish.
Joy Behar has been doing this for 29 years, and she is very good at one specific thing: stopping information that makes Democrats look bad from reaching her audience.
The moment Eisen started explaining a Trump policy with genuine benefits for working-class families, Behar's instincts kicked in.
Not with a counterargument. Not with a competing statistic.

With noise, deflection, and a pivot to solar panels – because solar panels can't be used as evidence that Trump did something right.
Viewers noticed immediately.
"The women on The View are so infected with Trump Derangement Syndrome that they couldn't even let Sara Eisen finish explaining how transformational Trump Accounts will be for kids across America," one person said.
Bessent framed the bigger picture at the program's January launch: every president in modern history has left children with debt.
Trump is leaving them with assets.
Joy Behar responded to that legacy by talking about the sun.
