The View to host Joe and Jill Biden for first interview since leaving office
ABC News’s The View announced Thursday that former President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden will appear for a live interview on the program next week.
It will mark Joe Biden’s 11th appearance on the show since 2007. The May 8 episode won’t be Jill Biden’s first time either, or the first time a Biden administration official has appeared on the show since Democrats lost in 2024. Former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre sat down on The View in March.
“Next Thursday, May 8th, we are honored to welcome former President Biden and first lady Jill Biden for their very first interview since leaving the White House,” actress Whoopi Goldberg said on Thursday’s episode. “We’ll ask about his legacy, accomplishments, regrets, and of course, the current political landscape.”
Every celebrity host on The View expressed concern over Biden’s fitness following his June 2024 debate against Donald Trump. When Biden dropped out of the race in favor of then-Vice President Kamala Harris, the hosts voiced their approval and invited the new nominee for an interview that contributed to her downfall. In it, she said there was “not a thing that comes to mind” that she would have done differently from her predecessor.
Following Trump’s win, The View was quick to quell rumors that it would hire a pro-Trump co-host. In a comment to the Washington Examiner at the time, a spokesperson said, “The View is an opinion-based show featuring a diverse panel of women with different points of view – the current panel is clearly resonating with audiences given that the series just had its highest rated episode in more than a decade and hit a 4-year high in total viewers.”

Instead, the cast has ramped up criticisms against Trump, from condemning his relationship with his adviser Elon Musk, his administration’s mass deportation plan, and his executive order ending diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.
ABC News recently settled with Trump in a lawsuit over anchor George Stephanopoulos’s comment that Trump was found “liable for rape,” resulting in the network paying the president $15 million. Trump will take the settlement toward establishing a “Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for Plaintiff, as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past.”
