Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) appeared on ABC's "The View" on November 4, 2025, where the initial warm reception from the audience soon turned into a series of sharp exchanges with the show's predominantly left-leaning hosts. Dressed in a striking red suit, Greene's arrival was met with applause, which quickly dissipated as the conversation delved into more contentious topics.
The first sign of tension arose when Greene affirmed her support for President Donald Trump, prompting co-host Joy Behar to make a whispered comment that elicited laughter from the audience. The congresswoman also engaged in a debate with co-host Sunny Hostin, defending her critiques of both Republican and Democratic lawmakers and arguing that her approach has been independent, with a focus on representing working-class Americans.
As the discussion progressed, Hostin questioned Greene about her past association with QAnon conspiracy theories. Greene responded by explaining that she had been misled by false information on social media and media reports, drawing a parallel to experiences Hostin might have had. Hostin conceded that the hosts had previously criticized Greene on air, but Greene countered that these criticisms were based on inaccurate information and out-of-context statements.
The atmosphere grew tense when Behar referenced a controversial social media post Greene had made years prior, which suggested that the 2018 California wildfires were caused by space-based solar technology funded by powerful, undisclosed entities. This led to a chaotic moment where multiple hosts spoke over each other, and Whoopi Goldberg had to intervene, calling for a commercial break as the situation escalated.
Following the break, the panel resumed with a calmer discussion on various policy issues, including the administration's approach to Jeffrey Epstein and Israel's military operations in Gaza. Greene defended her right to critique foreign governments and condemned the Oct. 7 attacks while advocating for the safety of civilians and children in Gaza, receiving applause for her comments.
The conversation then turned to the upcoming elections in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia. Greene expressed her opposition to Andrew Cuomo, referencing allegations against him and his handling of COVID-19 policies in nursing homes, and voiced her support for Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa.
Greene's appearance drew significant attention on social media, with one tweet from Timcast News highlighting her criticism of "paid MAGA influencers" who had attacked her online following the announcement of her appearance on the show. Another tweet from TV News Now featured Greene's response to a question from Goldberg, where she expressed that many wanted her to provoke conflict on the show, but she chose a calm and considered response.
The congresswoman's guest spot follows a report from the Media Research Center's NewsBusters, indicating a lack of right-wing representation on "The View” this year. Greene has been a vocal critic within her own party, particularly regarding the government shutdown, and her appearance on the show is likely to continue fueling discussions on her role and influence.
