WOLFF on The View. Joy BEHAR got a big laugh, "What's a book?!1"

They asked, "Who in the WH thought it was a good idea to give you access?"

He: "I had talked to (TWITLER) and asked if I could observe. He thought I wanted a job. I said, no, I want to write a book..."

*********And Joy said, "So he said, 'What's a BOOK?!1' "

Somehow comparing Michael Wolfe's book to "Game Change", which she took as a massive slam on her family.

She is being pretty nasty.

7. The other day she got into it with Joy, her eyes were watering, I hope she leaves

She had delivered one of her speeches about how Lib elite just don't "get" (hurting White America?) and threw in, "I'm tired of being lectured to!1"

Joy said, "Who is lecturing you, Meghan?!1" No answer.

10. And I'm pretty sure I heard her refer to herself as being a 'moderate', today

I think Meghan needs to do some deep introspection.

She really was flat out rude.

Besides being out of her element, she is having to deal with a horribly tragic situation, with her Dad's terminal illness. I've been there - you don't sleep and you can become short tempered due to the stress and exhaustion.

She read off a long list of complainants.

"Book is about context. 'Off the record' died/ended with AILES's death."

11. And how was her family a "victim" of Game Change?

That book, perhaps, questioned McCain and his people's judgement for picking Palin, but seemed to go, far more, after the Palin Family.

"Everybody questions, nobody knows, say 'It's a rich people thing.' She thought he could win (when nobody did), but as the campaign went on she became more and more afraid. Articles about her devastated her."
