Joy Behar: ‘It Would Have Been the End of This Country, It Would Have Been the End of Democracy’ if Trump Won

EXCERPT:

BEHAR: "I did have a — we had champagne and we all had a great time with some friends in a safe environment, but, you know, a couple of things. Number one, if we were going to cheat or if there was going to be any kind of fraud, why not do it in the Senate also? Why just the presidency? Might as well take the whole enchilada, so they’re completely illogical right there. Second thing, I would like to congratulate you, Whoopi having spent four years and you never mentioned his name once. I think you should get an Emmy for the best nonspoken word. OK? That's another thing. (Laughter) Or a Grammy rather. Actually, it’s a Grammy. I feel like, you know, this morning I said to Steve, what is that Superman always said? Truth, justice and the American way is back. It’s back. You know, I don’t think that people understand. Today everybody should be happy because just picture in your mind what it could have been if he had won. It would have been the end of this country. It would have been the end of democracy. And I am not exaggerating. I am not exaggerating. I believe in truth. He start out lying and he would just continue for another four years. We would never get out of this Covid disaster that we’re in. We would never have scientists if he were here. So please, everybody, take a breath and say thank you, America, for -- for saving our country."
