HELLO, HELLO, HELLO, AND WELCOME TO "THE VIEW," Y'ALL. WELCOME TO "THE VIEW." THIS IS ALWAYS A TOUGH DAY, AND WE NEED TO BEGIN BY ACKNOWLEDGING THAT TODAY IS THE 23rd ANNIVERSARY OF THE 9/11 TERROR ATTACK, AND OUR HEARTS, AS THEY ARE ALWAYS, ARE WITH EVERYONE WHO LOST LOVED ONES, EVERYONE WHO WAS TRAUMATIZED BY THIS. OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO YOU. NOW, I HAVE TO PIVOT AND TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. [ CHEERS ] BECAUSE THERE WAS A BOOTY WHOOPING. [ LAUGHTER ] LAST EVENING. >> Sunny: UH-HUH. >> Whoopi: AND I HAVE TO SAY, I WAS QUITE RELIEVED. >> Sunny: UH-HUH. >> Joy: AND DELIGHTED. >> Whoopi: QUITE RELIEVED, YOU KNOW. [ APPLAUSE ] BECAUSE LAST NIGHT WAS THE FIRST AND POSSIBLY LAST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS AND YOU-KNOW-WHO, AND CLEARLY VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS KICKED SOME BUTT. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] SHE DID. SHE DID. SHE CALLED YOU-KNOW-WHO OUT FOR KISSING UP TO DICTATORS, KILLING THE IMMIGRATION BILL, HAVING NO HEALTH CARE PLAN, AND SPEWING LIES ABOUT POST-BIRTH ABORTION, WHICH TO BE CLEAR IS ILLEGAL EVERYWHERE. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. YOU CANNOT HAVE A BABY AND THEN HAVE DOCTORS SITTING AROUND TALKING ABOUT WHETHER THEY'RE GOING TO KILL IT. NO, NO, THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN THIS COUNTRY. >> Sunny: IT'S ILLEGAL. >> Whoopi: OR ANY COUNTRY THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD OF SO -- BUT I GUESS HIS STRATEGY WAS TO DOUBLE DOWN ON THE CRAZY. >> Joy: YEAH. >> Whoopi: YOU THINK I'M KIDDING? TAKE A LOOK. >> Joy: DEMENTED. >> WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO OUR COUNTRY BY ALLOWING THESE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE TO COME INTO OUR COUNTRY. IN SPRINGFIELD, THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS, THE PEOPLE THAT CAME IN, THEY'RE EATING THE CATS. THEY'RE EATING -- THEY'RE EATING THE PETS OF THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE. >> TALK ABOUT EXTREME. [ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE ] >> Joy: OH, MY GOD, WHOOPI. WHEN I -- WHEN THAT CAME ON LAST NIGHT, MY DOG BERNIE HID UNDER THE BED, HE WAS SO SCARED. THEY HAVE A PICTURE. LOOK HOW SCARED THAT POOR BOY WAS. LOOK. DOESN'T HE LOOK SCARED? BUT SHE WAS SO TOUGH ON HIM. IT WAS ALMOST LIKE ELDER ABUSE. [ LAUGHTER ] LIKE, I WAS WATCHING A WOMAN KICK THE BABOOBY OUT OF A MANAGE. MAN. >> Whoopi: OUT OF A WHAT? >> Joy: IT WAS SORT OF LIKE PAINFUL TO WATCH. >> Whoopi: THE BABOOBY. >> Joy: THE BABOOBY. >> Alyssa: FOX NEWS IS SAYING IT. HE MELTED DOWN WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES. >> Whoopi: YOU SURE DID. >> Alyssa: SHE LAID TRAPS FOR HIM AND HE FLOPPED RIGHT IN. HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN STRONGEST ON BORDER SECURITY BUT ENDED UP TALKING ABOUT HIS RALLIES, THEY'RE GREAT, AND NOBODY LEAVES. IF THIS WAS A TRADITIONAL REPUBLICAN -- TRADITIONAL PRESIDENTIAL CYCLE WITH MITT ROMNEY AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS, I WOULD HAVE SAID SHE SHOULD HAVE TALKED MORE ABOUT WHY SHE WAS FOR DEFUND THE POLICE BUT ISN'T NOW. YES, MIGRANTS ARE EATING ANIMALS AND DEFENDED THE JANUARY 6th RIOTERS AND PRAISED VIKTOR ORBAN. WOULDN'T SAY UKRAINE SHOULD WIN THE WAR AGAINST RUSSIA AND, BEST OF ALL, ASKED IF HE HAS A HEALTH CARE PLAN AFTER BEING PRESIDENT FOR FOUR YEARS AND SAYS, I HAVE CONCEPTS OF A PLAN. [ LAUGHTER ] NOTHING FOR -- >> Joy: HE'S BEEN TRYING TO FIX THAT FOR TEN YEARS. >> Alyssa: I HOPE -- I THINK THE MASK STARTED TO SLIP EVEN WITH MAGA SUPPORTERS. IF YOU CAN'T GET THROUGH A 90-MINUTE DEBATE, HOW CAN YOU GET THROUGH FOUR YEARS? >> Sunny: HE CAN'T BECAUSE HE COULDN'T GET THROUGH THE 90 MINUTES, AND I HAD SAID FROM THE BEGINNING, I LIKE THE MATCHUP OF A PROSECUTOR AND A FELON, RIGHT? I LIKE THAT, AND WHAT YOU SAW WAS THAT. YOU SAW KAMALA HARRIS PROSECUTING A CASE. I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A PROSECUTOR, I HAD A LOT OF DIFFICULTY POINTING TO THE DEFENDANT AND SAYING, THIS MAN DID THIS, AND MY -- THE CHIEF OF MY DIVISION SAID, IF YOU CAN'T POINT TO THE MAN AND SAY THAT HE DID IT, THE JURY WON'T POINT TO THAT MAN AND SAY HE DID IT. SO, SHE POINTED AT HIM AND TOLD HIM OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND SAID -- >> Joy: YEAH. . >> Sunny: -- IT TO HIS FACE. THE GREAT THING WAS THAT HILLARY CLINTON SAID THAT HE COULD BE BAITED. >> Sara: AND SHE BAITED HIM. >> Sunny: AND SHE BAITED HIM. SHE SAID, CLEARLY HE'S HAVING A VERY DIFFICULT TIME PROCESSING THAT HE WAS FIRED BY 81 MILLION VOTERS. [ CHEERS ] HE GOT FIRED. HE GOT FIRED. THEN SHE SAID, YOU KNOW, I ENCOURAGE AMERICANS TO ATTEND ONE OF HIS RALLIES, BECAUSE PEOPLE LEAVE EARLY OUT OF EXHAUSTION AND BOREDOM. >> Joy: YEAH, THAT KILLED HIM. >> Sunny: IT KILLED HIM. IT TOOK HIM OUT. >> Joy: ALTHOUGH IT WAS MOSTLY THE SIZE. >> Sunny: THE SIZE. THEN SHE SAYS TO HIM. SHE BRINGS UP THE WHARTON SCHOOL WHERE HE ATTENDED SCHOOL AND SAID, THEY SAY YOUR PLAN WOULD IMPLODE THE DEFICIT. FINALLY SHE SAYS, WE'VE HAD -- BIDEN AND I HAD TO CLEAN UP YOUR MESS. SHE ALSO CALLED HIM A DISGRACE, WEAK, AND SAID THAT OTHER LEADERS LAUGH AT HIM. >> Whoopi: LET ME SHOW -- CAN I JUST DO -- >> Sunny: YES. THE WALKOUT WAS THE BEST. >> Whoopi: SHE SAID, JUST LIKE THIS. [ LAUGHTER ] NOW, THIS MAY NOT BE WHAT WAS COMING OUT OF HER MOUTH, BUT THIS IS WHAT HER BODY WAS SAYING. [ APPLAUSE ] KAMALA HARRIS AND THEN -- >> Sunny: THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED >> Whoopi: AND THEN SHE SAID HER NAME CORRECTLY. >> Sara: YES. >> Whoopi: AND YOU NOTICE HE DIDN'T SAY IT AT ALL, BECAUSE HE KNEW -- BECAUSE SHE SAID TO HIM, YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING TO ME, SAY IT TO MY FACE. >> Sunny: AND SHE SAID IT TO HIS FACE. >> Whoopi: AND SHE PUT HER FACE RIGHT THERE, AND HE COULDN'T DO IT. HE COULDN'T DO IT. >> Sara: IN ADDITION TO ALL THOSE MOMENTS, BECAUSE THAT HANDSHAKE WAS SUCH A BOLD WAY TO START THE WHOLE THING, THAT CLIP WE SHOWED EARLIER BEARS MENTIONING WHEN HE SPOKE OF THE ANIMALS AND MIGRANTS MENTIONING THAT THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM CHOSE THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IS MIS AND DISINFORMATION AND THE PROBLEM IS A.I. AND SOCIAL MEDIA AND ALGORITHMS. WHEN YOU HAVE A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE STANDING UP IN FRONT OF A MIC WITH MILLIONS IN THE AUDIENCE AND SAYING AND PEDDLING IN CONSPIRACY THEORIES, ALTHOUGH IT'S FUNNY WHEN YOU HEAR IT, BECAUSE I FOUND MYSELF LAUGHING, LIKE, ARE YOU SERIOUS AS I WATCHED IT, THE SEVERITY OF THE MOMENT IS ONLY NUMBED BECAUSE OF THE CANDIDATE SAYING IT. >> Sunny: MAY I JUST ADD TO THAT, BECAUSE -- AND I HATE TO ADD TO MISINFORMATION, BUT IT'S SIMPLY NOT TRUE, AND DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS DID A GREAT JOB. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] FACT-CHECKING DURING THE DEBATE. WHEN HE TALKED ABOUT SPRINGFIELD, OHIO, HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HAITIAN PEOPLE IN PARTICULAR, AND AS THE WIFE OF A HAITIAN AND AS THE MOTHER OF HAITIAN CHILDREN, HOW DARE YOU. HOW DARE YOU IMPLY THAT -- >> Alyssa: THERE'S 400,000 HAITIAN AMERICAN VOTERS IN FLORIDA, SO YOU'RE NOT HELPING YOURSELF. >> Joy: I THINK THE ASPCA SHOULD GO AFTER HIM. >> Whoopi: BUT THE THING IS, THERE'S NO PROOF. THAT'S THE THING, AND I HEARD THEM KVETCHING AT DAVID MUIR AND LINSEY DAVIS FOR FACT-CHECKING HIM. WELL, YOU HAVE TO FACT-CHECK HIM. HE WAS SAYING YOU COULD DO MURDER, KILL BABIES, BUT WAIT A MINUTE, SHE NAILED HIM ON 2025, >> Joy: YEAH. >> Whoopi: SHE POPPED HIM IN THE HEAD ON ABORTION. SHE SLAPPED THE LIPS OFF HIM ON THE BORDER. >> Sunny: YEAH. >> Whoopi: SHE SAID HE PREFERRED TO RUN ON A PROBLEM INSTEAD OF FIXING THE PROBLEM. >> Sunny: THAT'S TRUE. >> Whoopi: AND WHEN SHE SAID TELL THE 800,000 POLISH AMERICANS RIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA HOW YOU'D ADDRESS PUTIN WANTING THEIR LAND, THIS -- SHE -- YOU KNOW -- >> Sara: THAT'S WHAT PREPARATION LOOKS LIKE. >> Whoopi: THAT'S WHAT PREPARATION LOOKS LIKE. [ APPLAUSE ] >> Sunny: YOU KNOW, IT'S ALWAYS THE RULE FOR A PROSECUTOR IS PREPARATION, PREPARATION, PREPARATION. WHAT YOU SAW IS PREPARATION VERSUS WINGING IT. THAT NEVER WINS THE DAY. >> Whoopi: OKAY, AND ALSO, SHE GOT ANOTHER WIN, BIG WIN LAST NIGHT BECAUSE TAYLOR SWIFT OFFICIALLY DECLARED HERSELF A CHILDLESS CAT LADY FOR KAMALA. YOU KNOW, LOOK -- >> Sunny: DO YOU FEEL JOYFUL? >> Whoopi: YOU KNOW WHAT, I FEEL WHAT I ALWAYS THOUGHT I WOULD FEEL, BECAUSE SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE'S DOING. >> Sunny: YEAH. >> Whoopi: SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO FOOL AROUND, AND WHAT SHE -- I'M GOING TO SAY THIS REALLY FAST, SHE DID WHAT THE REPUBLICANS TEND TO DO. THEY REPEAT EVERYTHING. SO EVERY 15 MINUTES SHE SAID THIS IS WHAT I'M GOING TO DO. I'M GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THIS. I'M GOING TO DO THIS, I'M GOING TO DO THIS. ARE THERE THINGS THAT SHE COULD HAVE SAID MORE ABOUT, YES, PROBABLY, AND WE WILL HEAR MORE, BUT SHE NAILED WHAT SHE WANTED TO DO. THAT'S WHAT I ASKED HER TO -- WELL, NOT I. [ LAUGHTER ] BUT THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR, AND WHEN THIS MAN SAY HE DID NOT HAVE A PLAN. >> Sunny: I KNOW. >> Whoopi: I WAS LIKE -- >> Joy: HE HAS A CONCEPT OF A PLAN. >> Whoopi: CHILD. HE'S GOT A CONCEPT, AND THERE WE ARE, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] ♪ Former Gov. Chris Christie weighs in on the Harris-Trump debate [ APPLAUSE ] ♪ >> Whoopi: WELCOME BACK. WE'RE HERE TALKING ABOUT THE IMPACT THAT LAST NIGHT'S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE WILL HAVE ON THE RACE, AND JOINING US NOW IS ABC NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER NEW JERSEY GOVERNOR CHRIS CHRISTIE. WELCOME BACK. [ APPLAUSE ] SO, LET'S GET RIGHT INTO IT. YOU DEBATED -- EXCUSE ME, YOU DEBATED YOU-KNOW-WHO BEFORE. >> SIX TIMES. >> Whoopi: YEAH, YOU KNOW, AND SO, WHAT DID YOU SEE LAST NIGHT? >> WELL, FIRST, YOU KNOW, YOU SAW SOMEONE, AND I THINK SUNNY SAID THIS EARLIER, YOU SAW SOMEONE WHO IS EXQUISITELY WELL PREPARED AND SOMEBODY WHO WAS NOT. >> Whoopi: YEAH. >> AND, YOU KNOW, THESE THINGS ARE HARD. YOU KNOW, YOU GO OUT THERE, YOU KNOW THERE'S 70, 80 MILLION PEOPLE WATCHING YOU, AND you GO OUT ON THE STAGE, AND YOU ARE BY YOURSELF IN EVERY WAY THAT YOU CAN BE. NO STAFF, NO FAMILY, NO CONVERSATION. >> Sunny: NO NOTES. >> NO NOTES, NO NOTES, NO PHONES, NO NOTHING, AND SO IF YOU'RE NOT WELL PREPARED, THINGS CAN GO OFF THE RAILS PRETTY QUICK. NOW, WHEN YOU ADD TO IT THAT HE'S JUST A REALLY ANGRY GUY, SO, YOU KNOW, I GOT ASKED BEFORE THE DEBATE, WHICH DONALD TRUMP WAS GOING TO SHOW UP, AND I SAID, WELL, IN THE BEGINNING, THE CALM DONALD TRUMP WILL SHOW UP, BECAUSE HE KNOWS THAT'S WHAT HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE IN ORDER TO DO WELL, BUT THIS IS NOT A SOLO ACT. THIS IS AN INTERACTIVE THING, AND AS SOON AS EITHER ONE OF THE QUESTIONERS OR THE VICE PRESIDENT WOULD GET HIM RILED UP, HE'LL GO OFF. >> Joy: BUT YOU SAY HE SHOULD BE PREPARED. HE HAS NO ATTENTION SPAN AND HE IS UNABLE TO RETAIN INFORMATION. >> Sara: HE'S NOT SAYING HE'S CAPABLE OF PREPARATION. >> I DIDN'T SAY HE WAS. [ LAUGHTER ] >> Joy: HOW DO YOU PREPARE? >> LOOK, YOU CAN PREPARE EVEN, BECAUSE I DID IT WITH HIM IN '16, EVEN WITH SOMEONE WITH HIS LIMITED ATTENTION SPAN. >> Joy: THAT'S A LONG TIME AGO. HE HAD A DECLINE. AS MY AUNT JULIE WOULD SAY, HE TOOK A DROP. >> HE TOOK A DROP, AND, LOOK, YOU CAN DO THAT, BUT HE HAS TO WANT TO DO IT. >> Joy: YEAH. >> AND BELIEVE ME, HE DOESN'T WANT TO DO IT. HE DOESN'T LIKE WORKING HARD. >> Joy: WHAT DOES HE WANT TO DO? >> HE JUST WANTS TO GO OUT THERE AND BE HIM. >> Joy: THAT'S WHAT HE DID. >> AND WE SAW IT LAST NIGHT. >> Sara: THE BOLDEST MOVE IS THE VICE PRESIDENT CAME ON THAT STAGE, SHE REACHED FOR HIS HAND, AND SHE WAS ALMOST BEHIND HIS PODIUM, BECAUSE THEY WERE CLEARLY NOT GOING TO MEET IN THE MIDDLE. DO YOU THINK THAT SET THE TONE FOR THE NIGHT? I THOUGHT THAT WAS SUCH AN AMAZING MOVE. >> Joy: IT THREW HIM OFF. >> IF SHE THREW HIM OFF, THEN HE'S EVEN STUPIDER THAN SOME PEOPLE THINK. [ LAUGHTER ] THAT WAS -- [ APPLAUSE ] I MEAN, LOOK, SHE DID -- SHE DID WELL LAST NIGHT, BUT THAT WAS A LAYUP, OKAY. YOU GO, AND YOU SHAKE SOMEONE'S HAND. >> Sara: THAT'S HOW LOW THE BAR HAS BEEN BROUGHT DOWN. >> WELL, BUT THAT'S RIGHT BUT SHE DOESN'T GET CREDIT FOR GETTING OVER A BAR THAT'S THIS HIGH. MY POINT IS -- >> Sara: SHE DIDN'T PUT THE BAR DOWN THERE. >> GOOD FOR HER, AND IT'S SMART. >> Sunny: WHY DIDN'T HE MEET HER IN THE MIDDLE? >> THAT'S NOT HIM. >> Sunny: WHY DIDN'T HE MEET HER IN THE MIDDLE? HE IS SO MUCH LARGER THAN SHE IS. SHE'S MY HEIGHT. HE'S GOT TO BE 6'2", AND SHE LOOKED TALLER THAN HE WAS. >> CERTAINLY SHE WAS TALLER THAN HIM BY GOING AND GREETING HIM. >> Sunny: YEAH. >> AND IT WAS A DISPLAY OF CONFIDENCE ON HER PART AS WELL. >> Sunny: YEAH. >> AND THE OTHER THING THAT ADDED TO IT LAST NIGHT WAS THAT I THOUGHT WAS ONE OF THE MOST DISTURBING PARTS OF THE WHOLE THING WAS, HE WOULDN'T LOOK AT HER, RIGHT? AND SO, YOU KNOW, EVEN WHEN HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HER, HE KEPT LOOKING STRAIGHT AHEAD. WHEN SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT HIM, HE WOULDN'T LOOK AT HER, AND HE DIDN'T DO THAT, BECAUSE HE IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE. SARAH JESSICA PARKER YEAH. >> HE WAS EXPECTING -- >> Joy: BECAUSE IT'S A WOMAN. >> Sara: THE SITUATION IN GENERAL. >> LOOK, I THINK IT'S DEBATING THIS WOMAN. NOW, I COULD TELL YOU THAT WHEN I WAS PREPARING HIM IN 2016, HE HAD ENORMOUS RESPECT FOR HILLARY CLINTON. HE USED TO SAY ALL THE TIME, SHE'S REALLY SMART. SHE'S REALLY TOUGH. SHE'S REALLY GOOD. >> Joy: WOW. >> HE DOESN'T THINK THIS ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS, WRONGLY, BUT HE DOESN'T THINK THAT, AND HE DISPLAYED IT. HE DISPLAYED HIS LACK OF RESPECT FOR HER. >> Joy: DOES IT HAVE TO DO WITH HER SKIN COLOR PER CHANCE? >> NO, I DON'T THINK THAT'S IT IN AND OF ITSELF. I THINK IT'S THAT -- >> Sunny: IS IT PART OF IT? >> I THINK IT'S THAT SHE IS VICE PRESIDENT. YOU KNOW THE OLD ONE, JOY. A WOMAN HAD TWO SONS, ONE WENT TO SEA, AND THE OTHER WAS VICE PRESIDENT. NEITHER WAS HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN. PEOPLE DON'T RESPECT VICE PRESIDENTS. THEY HAVE TO STAND BEHIND THE PRESIDENT AND NOD. >> Joy: WHY DO YOU KEEP SAYING YOU DID NOTHING? SHE HAD THE POWER? SHE DOESN'T HAVE THE POWER. >> EXACTLY, AND IF I WERE HER, I WOULD HAVE SAID THAT. I WOULD HAVE SAID, YOU KNOW, LOOK, IN THE END LAST NIGHT, SHE DID WHAT SHE HAD TO DO. >> Whoopi: YES, SHE DID. >> WHICH WAS SHE'S THE LESSER KNOWN PERSON WITH THE LESSER PROFILE. SHE NEEDED TO SHOW THOSE UNDECIDED VOTERS THAT SHE BELONGED ON THAT STAGE. >> Joy: RIGHT. >> AND LAST NIGHT SHE SHOWED SHE BELONGED ON THE STAGE. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] AND THAT'S WHY, LOOK, I SAW HER CAMPAIGN PUT OUT A CHALLENGE FOR A SECOND DEBATE RIGHT AFTER THE DEBATE. PLEASE STOP. >> Sunny: YEAH. >> DON'T DO IT. >> Joy: DO NOT TOY WITH PERFECTION. >> DON'T DO THAT, REALLY, SERIOUSLY. YOU GET IN THE RING AGAINST A GUY WHO HAS HAD MORE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES THAN ANYBODY IN HISTORY, AND YOU KNOCK HIM AROUND. RAISE YOUR ARMS, GO TO TWO RALLIES A DAY, RAISE SOME MONEY, AND GO HOME, MAN. YOU KNOW, DON'T -- BECAUSE NOTHING GREAT CAN HAPPEN FOR HER IN A SECOND DEBATE. >> Sunny: I DON'T THINK HE -- >> SHE'LL EITHER DO AS WELL AS SHE DID THIS TIME, OKAY, OR HE COULD DO BETTER. >> Joy: I HAVE TO ASK YOU, LIKE WHERE WERE YOU? HOW DID YOU FEEL THE MOMENT WHEN HE SAID, THEY'RE EATING OUR PETS? >> WELL, I WAS SITTING WITH MY WIFE WATCHING IT, AND WE JUST BURST OUT LAUGHING, LIKE, LIKE, YOU KNOW, I LOOKED AT HER, I SAID, I CAN'T BELIEVE HE WENT THERE. I CAN'T ACTUALLY BELIEVE HE WENT THERE. LIKE, HE'S FOLLOWING AROUND DOPEY J.D. VANCE NOW ON THAT ISSUE, AND EVEN J.D. HAS SAID, WELL, MAYBE IT WASN'T EXACTLY TRUE. WELL, AND THE LAST PART OF THAT IS HE THREW HIS VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE UNDER THE BUS LAST NIGHT. PEOPLE HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT THAT THAT MUCH. HE SAID, HE WASN'T SPEAKING FOR ME, AND WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT IT. >> Sara: THEY CAME FOR PENCE'S HEAD, AND HE DIDN'T DEFEND THAT. I'M NOT SURPRISED. >> HERE'S THE BIGGER PART, SARA, IS THAT THAT SHOULD TELL VOTERS THAT IF HE'S NOT THERE FOR HIM, HE'S NOT GOING TO BE THERE FOR THEM EITHER. >> Joy: NO, THAT'S RIGHT. >> AND THAT'S MUCH MORE IMPORTANT. [ APPLAUSE ] >> Joy: HE'S PROVEN THAT ALREADY. >> Whoopi: SO, THIS IS JUST TOO GOOD TO LET GO OF. [ LAUGHTER ] SO WE'LL BE BACK WITH MORE WITH CHRIS CHRISTIE. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Continued: Former Gov. Chris Christie weighs in on the Harris-Trump debate ♪ [ APPLAUSE ] >> Whoopi: WELCOME BACK. WE'RE BACK WITH CHRIS CHRISTIE. SUNNY HAS THE NEXT QUESTION. >> Sunny: THANK YOU, WHOOP. NOW, WE ALL KNOW THE ONE THING YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET UNDER DONALD'S SKIN IS TALK ABOUT SIZE AND ESPECIALLY CROWD SIZES. [ LAUGHTER ] AND HILLARY CLINTON DID SAY THAT HE COULD BE BAITED. THE VICE PRESIDENT, SHE JUST WENT RIGHT THERE. TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. >> I'M GOING TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING REALLY UNUSUAL, AND I'M GOING TO INVITE YOU TO ATTEND ONE OF DONALD TRUMP'S RALLIES, BECAUSE IT'S A REALLY INTERESTING THING TO WATCH. YOU WILL SEE DURING THE COURSE OF HIS RALLIES HE TALKS ABOUT FICTIONAL CHARACTERS LIKE HANNIBAL LECTER. HE WILL TALK ABOUT WINDMILLS CAUSE CANCER, AND WHAT YOU WILL ALSO NOTICE IS THAT PEOPLE START LEAVING HIS RALLIES EARLY OUT OF EXHAUSTION AND BOREDOM. >> Sunny: NOW AFTER SHE SAID THAT, IN MY VIEW HE BECAME UNHINGED, RIGHT? [ LAUGHTER ] HE TALKED ABOUT BASELESS CLAIMS ABOUT HAITIANS EATING PETS. ARE YOU SURPRISED HOW EASILY THE VICE PRESIDENT WAS ABLE TO BAIT HIM, AND WHEN YOU DID DEBATE HIM, did DEBATE PREP WITH HIM IN 2016, DID EATING PETS EVER COME UP OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, HANNIBAL LECTER? >> THAT'S A NEW PHENOMENON. EATING PETS THING. NO, HE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT HANNIBAL LECTER EITHER. LOOK, NO, I'M NOT SURPRISED HOW EASTLY HE CAN BE BAITED. HE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THAT. HE NEEDS TO TALK ABOUT THAT. AND HE WAS -- >> Sunny: HE CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH. >> HE WAS JOYOUS ABOUT TALKING ABOUT THAT LAST NIGHT, TOO, TO TELL EVERYBODY HOW BIG HIS CROWDS ARE AND HE HAS THE BIGGEST RALLIES OF ANYBODY IN. >> Joy: HOW MUCH IS HIS TESTOSTERONE WITH THESE RALLIES? >> PART OF IT IS TESTOSTERONE, AND SOMEBODY WHO IS DEEPLY INSECURE, AND THIS IS THE WAY THAT HE GETS REINFORCEMENT OF HIS INSECURITY TO MAKE HIM FEEL BETTER, ALTHOUGH THESE PEOPLE ARE HERE SO THEY MUST LOVE ME. BUT, LOOK, WHAT WAS GOOD ABOUT WHAT SHE DID LAST NIGHT WAS SHE JUST KIND OF DROPPED IT IN. PEOPLE SAY, HOW DO YOU GET ZINGERS ON DEBATES? WHEN YOU TRY TO DO IT, IT COMES OFF FAKE AND STILTED. SHE JUST KIND OF WENT, LIKE, THREW A LITTLE BIT IN. >> Sara: HE WENT NUTS. >> WELL, BECAUSE SHE KNEW, BECAUSE SHE HAD BEEN WELL PREPARED. THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO DO. >> Sunny: PREPARATION, PREPARATION, PREPARATION. >> YOU DON'T NEED TO DO A LOT, JUST DO A LITTLE, AND HE'LL COME, AND HE DID. THE BIGGER ISSUE, THOUGH, IS WHAT IT TELLS YOU ABOUT HIM AS PRESIDENT. LIKE, OKAY, THIS IS ALL FUN AND GAMES, AND IT'S GREAT TO TALK ABOUT, BUT THINK ABOUT, IS THAT THE PERSON YOU WANT, BECAUSE IF KAMALA HARRIS GETS IT, VLADIMIR PUTIN GETS IT, KIM JONG-UN GETS IT, THE AYATOLLAH GETS IT. THEY ALL UNDERSTAND THEY COULD DO THE VERY SAME THING TO HIM AND AS A RESULT TO OUR COUNTRY, SO IT'S A BIGGER PROBLEM THAN JUST THE TESTOSTERONE. IT IS WHAT DOES THAT MEAN IF HE'S SITTING BEHIND THE DESK IN THE OVAL OFFICE, AND THAT'S MY BIGGER CONCERN ABOUT IT, AND SHE WAS ABLE TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO PUT THAT ON DISPLAY. >> Joy: PUTIN WILL EAT YOU FOR LUNCH. >> Alyssa: THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO ASK YOU ABOUT WAS THERE WERE SOME NONANSWERS ON BOTH SIDES, BUT ONE THAT WAS PRETTY GLARING TO ME WAS WHEN HE WAS DIRECTLY ASKED IN THE WAR BETWEEN UKRAINE AND RUSSIA, DO YOU WANT UKRAINE TO PREVAIL. WHO DO YOU WANT TO WIN, AND HE DIDN'T ANSWER IT. WHAT DID YOU INTERPRET TO MEAN? >> THAT MEANS HE DID. WHEN YOU DON'T ANSWER A QUESTION THAT'S REALLY DIRECT, THAT MEANS YOU'VE ANSWERED IT, RIGHT? >> Sunny: SO NO ANSWER IS AN ANSWER. >> HE DOESN'T CARE IF UKRAINE WINS OR NOT, AND HIS PLAN IS TO LET RUSSIA TAKE OVER UKRAINE. WELL, HE SAYS, I WANT THE WAR TO END. THAT MEANS EVERYTHING WILL GET PULLED BACK OUT AND LEAVE THE UKRAINIANS TO THEIR OWN DEVICES, SO, YOU KNOW, AND, LOOK, I WOULD SAY THIS ABOUT THE VICE PRESIDENT, TOO. IF THERE IS A SECOND DEBATE, SHE -- SHE COULD DO SOME THINGS TO HELP HERSELF. LIKE, LOOK, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE FORGIVING PEOPLE, AND THEY'RE UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE, SO THERE WERE SOME MISTAKES MADE IN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. SHE SHOULD ADMIT TO THEM AND SAY SHE'S GOING TO DO BETTER, SO, LIKE, THE PULLOUT IN AFGHANISTAN, THAT WAS FLUBBED. IT WAS BLOWN, RIGHT? >> Joy: BUT HE GAVE THE DATE. >> YEAH, BUT, WHOOPI, I'M SAYING -- OR JOY, WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT -- [ LAUGHTER ] >> YOU'RE ALL OVER HERE, SO -- YOU'RE ALL OVER HERE, BUT SHE CAN -- SHE CAN BECOME MORE CREDIBLE WITH PEOPLE BY SAYING, LOOK, THAT WAS A MISTAKE, AND I LEARNED FROM IT, AND I'M GOING TO DO BETTER WHEN I'M PRESIDENT. >> Sunny: EVOLUTION SHOWS LEADERSHIP. >> THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT. WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT CHANGING POSITIONS ON CERTAIN ISSUES, THE WAY I WOULD HOPE SHE WOULD ADDRESS IT WOULD BE TO SAY, YOU KNOW WHAT, I WILL CHANGE SOME OF MY POSITIONS IF THAT HELPS ME BRING THE COUNTRY TOGETHER, IF THAT HELPS ME BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER. BUT MAKE IT ABOUT UNITING THE COUNTRY, ALYSSA, RIGHT, AND SAYING, LOOK, I'M NOT GOING TO GET EVERYTHING I WANT, SO I WILL CHANGE -- I WON'T VIOLATE MY PRINCIPLES, BUT WHAT I WILL DO IS CHANGE MY POSITION A BIT IF I THINK THAT THAT CAN HELP BRING THE COUNTRY TOGETHER. I THINK THAT'S WHAT UNDECIDED VOTERS WANT TO HEAR IS THEY WANT TO STOP THE FIGHTING AND START WORKING TOGETHER. >> Joy: IS THIS GOING TO MOVE THE NEEDLE? >> IT WILL AMONG THOSE PEOPLE. >> Sunny: DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING 0 VOTE FOR HER NOW -- YOU WERE AN UNDECIDED VOTER. >> I'M STILL AN UNDECIDED VOTER. >> Joy: OH, SHUT UP. [ LAUGHTER ] OH, STOP IT. >> I AM. >> Whoopi: HOLD UP. HOLD UP. HOLD UP. HOLD UP. >> I UNDERSTAND YOU ALL WANT ME TO MAKE SOME BIG ANNOUNCEMENT, BUT WHAT I WILL SAY TO YOU IS, DONALD TRUMP IS NOT WHO I'M VOTING FOR. TAKE THAT TO THE BANK. >> Joy: SO YOU'RE VOTING FOR -- >> Whoopi: JOY, HOLD UP. OUR THANKS TO CHRIS CHRISTIE. WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

YOU GOT MARRIED. [ CHEERS ] YOU KNOW. >> Sunny: SOMEBODY IS SAD. >> Whoopi: I DIDN'T GET A CALL, BUT I UNDERSTAND. [ LAUGHTER ] AND NOW YOU'VE GOT THIS TOUR AND FILM. SO, HOW YOU DOING? >> OH, MAN, JUST REALLY ENJOYING ALL OF IT. TRYING TO SAVOR IT AS MUCH AS I POSSIBLY CAN AND MANAGE TO DO IT -- BEFORE THE SUPER BOWL, YOU SAID THE RESIDENCY IN LAS VEGAS, VERY SUCCESSFUL, 100 SHOWS SOLD OUT. I THEN WENT TO PARIS, WHICH IS PART OF THE REASON I'M HERE TO TALK TO YOU GUYS ABOUT THIS WEEKEND, RIGHT, SO SEPTEMBER THE 12th TO 15th IT'S A RESIDENCY-STYLE VIEWING. I WANT ALL THE FANS WHO DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO COME TO LAS VEGAS TO BE ABLE TO GO AND CHECK OUT WHAT I DID IN LAS VEGAS AND IN PARIS. >> Sara: YES. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> SO "RENDEVOUS IN PARIS," SEE ME THROWING STACKS. WE NORMALLY THROW USHER BOOKS AT MY SHOWS, BUT WE THROW FRANKS IN PARIS, SO, YOU KNOW, PART OF THE WHOLE THING IS JUST REALLY ENJOYING THE MUSIC, YOU KNOW, AFTER SELLING, AS YOU SAID, 80, BUT IT'S MORE LIKE 100 MILLION RECORDS, YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE A LOT TO CELEBRATE, AND I STARTED OFF BY DOING THAT IN LAS VEGAS, WENT TO PARIS AND THEN PLAYED THE SUPER BOWL, GOT MARRIED THE NIGHT OF THE SUPER BOWL AND -- NO, YOU DIDN'T GET THE INVITE. A LOT OF PEOPLE DIDN'T. IT WAS KIND OF AN IMPROMPTU THING. >> Whoopi: COME BE A RUNNER-UP. [ LAUGHTER ] >> BUT NOW "PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE" TOUR. PLAYED FOUR SOLD OUT NIGHTS AT THE BARCLAYS. IT WAS AMAZING. LIL' KIM CAME, DOUG E. FRESH, WU-TANG GOT THERE. WE HAD JADAKISS. WE HAD SWIZZ BEATZ, IT WAS SO AMAZING TO DO. HAD GLOW RILL LA OUT THERE. HAD A GREAT TIME. >> Sara: I WATCHED "RENDEVOUS IN PARIS," AND IT IS A SEXY SHOW. [ LAUGHTER ] NOT THAT WE WOULD EXPECT ANYTHING ELSE, BUT THERE IS NO BETTER PLACE THAN PARIS FOR THAT. SO, CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT IT, AND WHY DID YOU WANT TO MAKE A CONCERT FILM? >> WELL, PART OF IT WAS THE SUCCESS OF WHAT, YOU KNOW, LAS VEGAS HAD TO OFFER. >> Sara: OH, YEAH. >> PARIS GIVES YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO EVEN MORE. I CAME -- I'VE COME TO FASHION WEEK EVERY YEAR. I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING SPECIAL DURING FASHION WEEK. WE DID EIGHT SHOWS IN PARIS, AND THEN WE FILMED IT, BUT, YOU KNOW, THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE IS JUST MAKING YOU FEEL ALL OF THE CULTURAL THINGS THAT COME WITH MY WORLD. IT'S IN MY MUSIC, BUT ON THE STAGE I GET A CHANCE TO PLAY THEATRICALLY. I GET A CHANCE TO REALLY SPREAD MY WINGS, AND I WANTED THE WORLD TO SEE IT. >> Sara: WELL, YOU'RE KNOWN FOR SERENADING THE LADIES AT ALL OF YOUR SHOWS. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> Whoopi: SARA, ARE YOU RED? OH. SHE IS BRIGHT RED. >> Sara: HE DID THE THING. SO, ASIDE FROM YOUR EYES, WHICH, OKAY, WHAT'S THE SECRET TO THE ART OF SEDUCTION ACCORDING TO USHER? >> THE ART OF SEDUCTION IS CATERING TO YOUR WOMAN. YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT SHE WANTS UNDIVIDED ATTENTION. >> Sunny: SHE SURE DOES. [ LAUGHTER ] >> SHE DESERVES TO -- YOU HAVE TO LOOK HER IN HER EYES, LET HER KNOW HOW YOU REALLY FEEL. [ LAUGHTER ] >> Whoopi: NOW, YOU KNOW, YOU GOT ONE MORE OVER THERE. YOU GOT TO -- >> I'M NOT GOING TO LEAVE YOU OUT. [ LAUGHTER ] >> Alyssa: WHEN "MY WAY" CAME OUT. >> HAPPY LIFE -- HAPPY WIFE, HAPPY LIFE. I'M VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE SELECTED AN AMAZING PARTNER. MY MOTHER HAS DONE AN AMAZING JOB OF HELPING TO MAKE SURE THAT I UNDERSTOOD THE POWER OF HAVING AN INCREDIBLE PARTNER. >> Sunny: OH, THAT'S BEAUTIFUL. I WANT TO GO BACK TO YOUR SUPER BOWL PERFORMANCE, BECAUSE IT WAS THE MOST WATCHED HALFTIME SHOW OF ALL TIME, BY THE WAY. [ APPLAUSE ] AND I THINK YOU INSPIRED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM TO BUY A PAIR OF ROLLER SKATES. I ACTUALLY WENT UP TO MY ATTIC AND GOT MY OLD SKATES, ROLLER SKATES OUT AND BROKE MY WRIST IN MY HOUSE. >> YOU HAD ON THE WRONG SKATES.

I WENT TO THE VEGAS RESIDENCY, I'M A FAN, OBVIOUSLY. YOU'RE THE ULTIMATE PERFORMER. WHO INSPIRED YOU? >> GENE KELLY IS ONE OF MY INSPIRATIONS. >> Sunny: A GREAT DANCER. >> SO WHEN YOU SEE HIM DANCING, SKATING, TAPPING, ALL THE THINGS HE'S DONE, CULTURE HAS ALWAYS BEEN, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT I WANT TO SHARE WITH THE ENTIRE WORLD. I SKATE, I'VE BEEN SKATING SINCE I WAS 8 YEARS OLD. >> Sunny: YOU COULD TELL. >> RIGHT, SO TO BE ABLE TO ADD THOSE THINGS NOW IN A VERY FUN WAY THAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO FEEL ACTIVATED. NO, WHEN YOU COME TO MY SHOW, YOU LITERALLY ARE LIKE MAKING IT RAIN, THROWING MONEY, HAVING A GOOD TIME, ENJOYING YOURSELF, SKATING, DANCING. WE'RE SERENADING. >> Sara: I AM ACTIVATED. [ LAUGHTER ] >> BUT THE IDEA OF MAKING CERTAIN THAT PEOPLE FEEL THE CLASSIC NATURE OF PERFORMANCE IS -- >> Sunny: YES, AND ATL IS THERE. >> YEAH, YEAH. >> Whoopi: WELL, YOU KNOW, THIS IS WHAT PERFORMERS DO. YOU USED TO HAVE TO BE ABLE TO DO EVERYTHING. IF THEY SAY, CAN YOU RIDE A BULL, YOU HAD TO SAY YES. CAN YOU SKATE, OF COURSE, I CAN. CAN YOU SKI? THAT'S WHAT PERFORMERS ARE ABLE TO DO. >> Sunny: YEAH. >> Whoopi: THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO, AND WE'RE NOT DONE WITH USHER, AS YOU CAN TELL, BUT WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE.

[ APPLAUSE ] AFTER THE ASSAULT ON THE OLD GUY LAST NIGHT, DO YOU FEEL SORRY FOR HIM AT ALL? >> YOU KNOW WHAT, I FEEL SORRY THAT I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO WATCH IT. I WAS ACTUALLY PERFORMING AT BARCLAYS AND FELT A LITTLE IRRESPONSIBLE TO HAVE THE ATTENTION WHEN THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN FOCUSING ON THE DEBATE, BUT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF TALK THIS MORNING, HUH? >> Joy: TAYLOR SWIFT HAS NOW ENDORSED KAMALA HARRIS. >> YES. >> Joy: SHE WAS VERY, I THOUGHT, SMART THE WAY SHE DID IT. YOU DO YOUR RESEARCH, AND YOU DECIDE FOR YOURSELVES, BUT I -- A SINGLE CAT WOMAN AS SHE -- [ LAUGHTER ] I AM VOTING FOR KAMALA. DO YOU THINK -- I ALWAYS SAY THAT IN THIS EMERGENCY THAT WE'RE IN, I THINK THAT THE ARTISTS SHOULD COME OUT AND SPEAK FOR KAMALA AGAINST DONALD TRUMP, BECAUSE HE IS AN EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO THE COUNTRY. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT? >> YOU KNOW WHAT, I DON'T GET TOO DEEP INTO POLITICS. I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO WATCH THE DEBATE LAST NIGHT. I OBVIOUSLY HAVE BEEN WATCHING LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE. I THINK VOTING IS AN INDIVIDUAL CHOICE, AND I THINK THAT, YOU'RE RIGHT, YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE REALITY OF THE COUNTRY THAT WE ARE AND THE COUNTRY THAT WE WANT TO BE, AND FIND THE CANDIDATE THAT YOU FEEL BOTH ARE -- WHO FITS THE CATEGORY OF WHERE WE WANT TO BE, AND THAT'S IT, AND THAT'S WHAT YOU VOTE BASED OFF OF. WHO YOU HIGHLIGHT AND HOW YOU CHOOSE TO HIGHLIGHT IT ON WHATEVER PLATFORM YOU HAVE IS YOUR PREROGATIVE. >> Joy: YES. >> Whoopi: YEAH. [ APPLAUSE ] REALLY, YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY IS NOT BUILT TO DO THAT, YOU KNOW. EVERYBODY IS NOT BUILT TO DO IT, AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS HOPE THAT THE PEOPLE YOU REVERE HAVE GOOD SENSE AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE DOING THE SAME THING, BUT WHAT THEY DO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT YOU DO. >> Sara: THAT'S RIGHT. >> Whoopi: OKAY. THIS IS YOURS. >> VOTING IS AN INDIVIDUAL PROCESS. >> Whoopi: THAT'S RIGHT. THIS IS OUR ELECTION TO WIN OR TO LOSE. DON'T FORGET THAT. >> BEFORE WE LEAVE, LADIES, LET'S THROW ONE STACK AS WE WILL BE ENJOYING A DATE NIGHT FOR THE WEEKEND. >> Whoopi: OKAY. >> RESIDENCY, THE "RENDEVOUS IN PARIS" IS OFFICIALLY IN AMC THEATRES. >> Whoopi: THAT'S RIGHT, IT'S IN -- WILL YOU STOP -- CINEMAS WORLDWIDE.
