(RepublicanWire.org) – Former White House Communications Director for former President Donald Trump, Alyssa Farah Griffin, who is currently a co-host of the ABC show “The View,” is fitting into her surroundings. Being a host on a show where every other panelist attacks the former president and his administration, which she was a part of, she has joined in on the attacks.

The most recent example was in her testimony to the January 6 committee when she took a swipe at former White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany as she called her a “liar” and an “opportunist“ who pretended to believe fake claims about election fraud to get a job at Fox News, Mediaite reported.

“Kayleigh is a liar and an opportunist,” she said to the committee on April 15.

“They were just straight up lying to the public,” the former communications director said.

“She’s a smart woman,” she said. “She’s a Harvard law grad. This is not an idiot. She knew we lost the election, but she made a calculation that she wanted to have a certain life post-Trump that required staying in his good graces. And that was more important to her than telling the truth to the American public.”

She said that McEnany knew the former president’s claims about the election were not correct but she supported them to protect her future career.

“I think she saw that as a moment to kind of, like, if I do this one last public-facing stand for Trump, I’m going to be set. This is going to work out for me. And, I mean, it did. She got her Fox News gig. She — it worked out precisely how she’d always planned for it to, but she knew better,” she said.
