{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin labeled her former boss Donald Trump a "loser" on Tuesday night as midterm election projections started pouring in and encouraged Republicans to call him out as well.
"If you want the Republican Party to thrive, we have got to just finally speak out and say, this man is a loser, he lost 2020, he's about to, you know, he’s losing seats that were winnable this time, in time to look toward what the future might look like," Farah Griffin said.
She also said Republicans need to ask themselves if they're going to continue to nominate "bad candidates" in order to "appease" Trump.

Maggie Hassan was a beatable candidate. That could’ve been a pick-up for Republicans. But solely because of Donald Trump, he ended up being the nominee. He is celebrating O'Dea, a moderate losing in Colorado," Farah Griffin said.

"Again, we don’t know all the results. But the people are just saying, ‘Look, I’m going to look at this candidate because, yeah, the Democrats I don’t like, like I don’t like the way that they have handled the economy. But the Republicans are threatening democracy.’ And maybe they are figuring, you know what? I don’t like any of these guys?" she said.
CNN's Van Jones said the split-ticketing was "encouraging."

Griffin told "Good Morning America" in September that she hopes to be a "voice" for Trump voters.
"I'm a millennial and I worked in the Trump administration," she said. "I've also since criticized the former president, but I still want to be a voice for the 74 million Americans who voted for him, and kind of tell them, from my experience, here's why I won't support him again, but here's what a future Republican Party can and should look like. So that's really what I'm hoping to meet the audience with."
