The View co-host Alyssa Farrah Griffin said she plans to wear a MAGA hat for an entire episode of her show if President-elect Donald Trump can get Hamas to release the hostages.
Griffin's suggestion came as female hosts were discussing Trump's presence at the Notre Dame Cathedral reopening ceremony. Crowds filled France's Notre-Dame Cathedral for the first time in almost five years, holding mass for the first time on Sunday after a devastating fire broke out in 2019.
