Donald Trump Jr on Friday took to Twitter to push his girlfriend and former Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle as Meghan McCain’s replacement on ABC’s “The View.” But his endorsement was not well received by social media users, who didn’t hesitate to let him know.
Don Jr’s glowing endorsement of his girlfriend came in response to a report from the East Bay Times that Guilfoyle is being considered for the “conservative” seat on the popular morning show.
According to the report, the ABC talk show is looking to fill the seat that is being vacated by Meghan McCain — the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) — which has traditionally been held by a conservative personality.
“The names of controversial media personalities being floated include Kimberly Guilfoyle, Megyn Kelly and Candace Owens,” according to The Daily Mail.
The report led Trump Jr. to tweet:
“LOL, hey @ABC even I’d tune in to see @kimguilfoyle do this. Kim vs the other 4 doesn’t seem like a fair fight though. You may need a few more libs”… which led critics of the son of former president Donald Trump to point out Guilfoyle’s scandal-plagued firing at Fox News.
Naturally, Twitter users had a lot to say about that:
Never going to happen. They have a minimum standard that Kim doesn't meet.
I'm sure she could find something that airs at 1AM on Cinemax to star in though.— »»👀Deep State RN👀«« (@STL_JC) July 22, 2021
Somebody’s running out of money and needs to put the girlfriend to work …?🤫

Maybe you two could do a segment about how fucked up in the head people get when they do drugs.

I found Kimberly Guilfoyle’s audition tape. The view will just have to replace Meghan McCain’s chair with a pole. pic.twitter.com/6gNeLnD741

Remember that time that Kimberly Guilfoyle got fired from Fox because she was making sexual explicit comments to her coworkers.

Dude. Get a hobby or better yet a job. Oh, that’s why you want her to get this job. Someone in your family has to work

View does not hire sex offenders.

Hey, look, Junior's enjoyed another day of freedom. Enjoy it while you can, little fella, because they're definitely working on your indictments.

Why would The View take a chance on some one who already was fired from another network for sexual harassment. All women take these things more seriously that Trump men.
