Greg Gutfeld Exposes Joy Behar’s Hypocrisy on Live TV—Watch the Savage Clapback!
Joy Behar likes to joke that Greg Gutfeld is obsessed with her, waving off his name as if she’s never even heard of him. But this time, her signature smugness led her straight into a storm she couldn’t control.
It all began as just another heated day on The View, except Joy wasn’t in her usual chair—Monday’s her “day off,” as she puts it. Maybe that’s when she “feeds in the pasture,” Gutfeld quipped, a sly jab that set the tone for what was to come. Her absence didn’t stop her from becoming the segment’s main target. Instead, it made it easier.
No sooner had Joy cast shade on young Republicans—calling them “dumb,” rattling off names, and mocking their support for Trump—than Greg Gutfeld’s rebuttal reached the nation. Calm, sharp, and deadly accurate, he didn’t need to yell. He just let his cutting wit do the work.
To the surprise of The View’s usually friendly audience, Gutfeld used precision instead of volume to turn their usual script upside down. He dissected Joy’s tactics: the lazy labels, the smug insults, and the way she lords her platform over people outside her media bubble. He didn’t just attack—he held up a mirror.

Gutfeld’s biggest punch didn’t come from name-calling; it came from drawing a line between Joy’s comfortable studio world and the real America outside. He painted a hilarious but biting picture: Joy Behar dropped into a small-town diner, helplessly trying to order oat milk and avocado toast from a waitress who’s been running the place longer than The View has been on air. Around her, real folks fix trucks, juggle multiple jobs, and don’t care who she is—or what she thinks.
For Gutfeld, this wasn’t just about defending conservatives or going after Joy personally. It was about exposing the media bubble some elites live in, where studio applause and snarky “hot takes” are mistaken for wisdom and courage. Outside that bubble, he argued, insults don’t land. Real people aren’t interested in pre-written zingers or recycled talking points—they care about results, honesty, and making ends meet.
Throughout, Gutfeld never raised his voice. Every playful line cut deeper than a shout. He questioned Joy’s arrogance—the assumption that people who don’t agree with her are simply dumb—and asked: If Joy Behar had to live in rural America for a week, stripped of her glam squad and friendly audience, would she still act like the smartest person in the room? Or would reality finally catch up with her?
.
Perhaps Gutfeld’s most brutal move was imagining a new reality show: “Joy Meets Reality.” Each episode, Joy is dropped into a different conservative town with no script, no backup, no curated audience—just her, real Americans, and life as it is. Would her snarky jokes hold up face to face with the people she mocks? Would she finally understand what makes America tick?
Gutfeld wasn’t done. He called out the hypocrisy behind Joy’s “defense” of regular folks—the way she acts as if they’re too ignorant to make their own decisions, unless those decisions fit her Manhattan brunch narrative. Meanwhile, the towns she ridicules are full of hard-working, close-knit Americans making things work without applause or hashtags.
In the end, Gutfeld didn’t care if Joy kept talking—he almost encouraged it. With every dismissive quip, she proved his point: loudness isn’t intelligence, and TV lights don’t make arguments bulletproof. Real wisdom, he said, doesn’t need applause. It just needs clarity.
By the time Gutfeld dropped his final line, the mic was metaphorically shattered. Joy Behar, so used to having the last word, found herself exposed—not by anger, but by reality. And maybe, just maybe, it was a dose of truth that reached far beyond any studio.
