Alyssa Farah Griffin says Biden needs to 'be ready to secure the Capitol' if Trump loses 2024 election
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: During a recent episode of 'The View', host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who is a former aide of Donald Trump, cautioned that the 78-year-old ex-president is unlikely to accept a loss quietly.
Joy Behar opened the discussion by recalling the chaos of January 6, 2021, noting that even former vice president Mike Pence, who faced grave danger that day, needs to speak out more forcefully.

According to OK Magazine, Joy Behar remarked, "We all saw it with our own eyes, even Mike Pence, who needs to come out stronger now, I think," before adding, "His life was on the line. They had a noose ready for him. How do these people that are still following him, follow him? I don't understand the mentality anymore."
Griffin, who has publicly distanced herself from Trump, highlighted the troubling trend of Republican politicians who have altered their narratives about that day.
"There has been a total rewriting and white-washing of the terrifying event," she stated, noting that many in the GOP shifted their stance in response to Trump's influence and support as it became politically beneficial for them.
Behar responded by calling those lawmakers "pathetic."
Griffin then posed a critical question to her co-hosts. She asked, "If he [Trump] loses, do you guys honestly think this time he'll take it like a man and just concede and move on? He's going to try to steal the election, and the Biden administration needs to be ready to secure the Capitol and state capitals."

Whoopi Goldberg suggested that Donald Trump would likely "try to start some poo" if Kamala Harris wins in November.
Sunny Hostin expressed her concerns about the post-election period and said, "I'm very worried about the fact that I do believe that Kamala Harris will win the popular vote and also win the election, and I think he'll deny if she wins, and I think we need to be really, really vigilant the weeks after November 5."
Griffin concluded the segment by contrasting Trump’s potential reaction with what she anticipated from Harris. "By the way, if he wins, Kamala Harris will concede, and she will likely show up to his inauguration because that's what we do in America. We allow the peaceful transition of power," she asserted.
In a previous episode, Griffin further criticized Trump after he made derogatory comments about Goldberg during a rally, calling her "filthy dirty" in response to her critical remarks on 'The View'. Griffin said, "He’s always been triggered by women when they call him out."
Goldberg added, "This is what irritated him, not what's going on. Hurricanes, all kinds of stuff going on in our country, but we irritated him to the point where he had to admit he does watch the show, something we all knew."
