Joy Behar warns 'we're all going to die' in heated clash with co-hosts over TrumpRx initiative

"The View" erupted in debate over President Donald Trump's new TrumpRx prescription drug initiative, with co-hosts feuding over whether his involvement helps or hurts it.

The program partners the Trump administration with major private-sector companies, including Amazon, GoodRx and Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs - officially making Trump and Cuban business partners after a history of heated political attacks.

"The drugs don't actually have his name," co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin replied, noting these are existing drugs in a marketplace and arguing that mere association with Trump does not taint the initiative.

Co-host Sunny Hostin seized on how Trump had quipped in footage of the event that he and Cuban have one thing in common, with the president saying, "We want to make people better, and keep them wealthy, right?"

"He said 'wealthy' which means to me that there's something in it for him. This is not a well-intentioned person," Hostin argued.

Co-host Sara Haines noted how many Americans struggle with medical costs, replying that if Trump actually gets results on this issue, he can call it whatever he likes.

Behar retorted that there were countries like Scandinavia, where governments have national health insurance, to which Griffin shot back that those countries have populations equivalent to New Jersey, and that America is a whole different situation.

"The two of you are so naïve!" Hostin shouted, pointing at Griffin and Haines as the table debated and talked over each other.

Whoopi took a conciliatory tone, trying to address both sides of the debate, then addressed the audience, "We'll see how it works and if it works for y'all, do it. If it doesn't, keep it moving."

When asked for comment from Fox News Digital, White House spokesman Kush Desai said, "Joy Behar is an idiot."
