‘The View’ Host Floored by How Many People Think WHCD Shooting Was Staged

The View host Ana Navarro was stunned by the number of Americans who believe the shooting at Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner was “staged.”

“I’ll tell you what really hit me, though, was later that night when I was on social media or the next morning,” Navarro, 54, remarked on Monday’s show. “A good chunk of the country thinks this was staged.”

“I don’t think that. Let me just be clear. I don’t think that,” she continued. “But where are we in America? When Reagan was shot in 1981, nobody would have thought about that. And so I think people have to take stock of just the level of influence that misinformation, that the lies have had on the American psyche, that the first conclusion so many people reach because of the polarization and because of some of the things that our elected officials have done.”
