Whoopi Goldberg and Sarah Haines addressed Trump’s suggestion to cancel daily press briefings, stating their disbelief for the attitude that led Trump to make the suggestion in the first place.

“It is ridiculous that we keep talking about this,” Goldberg said. “It’s a problem.”

Joy Behar wondered why it appeared as though Republicans went into “hiding” each time Trump did or said something of concern.

Jedediah Bila spoke of the Republicans who had already disavowed Trump’s actions, such as Jason Chaffetz, Paul Ryan and a few Republican pundits and contributors.

Sunny Hostin agreed with Bila, saying that it would be difficult for them not to speak up at this point.
