Michelle Obama went on her book tour this month claiming America isn't "ready" for a woman president.
Democrats spent weeks blaming sexism and racism for Kamala Harris's crushing defeat.
But Joy Behar just admitted something about conservative women that left her co-hosts stunned.
The View struggles to explain why Democrats keep losing
The View can't figure out why voters rejected Kamala Harris after Democrats assured everyone she was the most qualified candidate in history.
Michelle Obama used her book tour promoting The Look to declare that America just isn't "ready" for a female president after Harris got demolished by Donald Trump.
"As we saw in this past election, sadly, we ain't ready," Obama told actress Tracee Ellis Ross at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.¹
Obama made it personal.
"That's why I'm like, don't even look at me about running, because you all are lying," Obama stated. "You're not ready for a woman. You are not."²
The View brought up Obama's comments and naturally spiraled into their usual routine of blaming voters for being too racist and sexist to elect their preferred candidates.
Co-host Sunny Hostin locked in on race like she always does.
When The View producer Brian Teta asked if "the country is getting more comfortable with women leaders," Hostin replied, "Maybe a woman, but not a black woman, ever. Not in my lifetime."³

Then Joy Behar dropped a truth bomb that sent shockwaves through the studio.
Behar names the type of woman who could actually win
Behar suggested something Democrats refuse to admit publicly — a conservative woman would have a far better shot at the presidency than any liberal candidate they've trotted out.
"It's possible that somebody like a Liz Cheney could win if she wasn't in the doghouse with her own Party right now," Behar said on The View's podcast. "She could be somebody who could run. I think maybe a conservative woman would win faster than a liberal."⁴

Producer Brian Teta immediately agreed.
"A lot of people think that," Teta responded. "A lot of people think a conservative woman might win first."⁵
Hostin couldn't help herself and had to inject race into the conversation again.
"A white conservative woman, yes," Hostin clarified, still fixating on race instead of acknowledging the real problem Democrats face.⁶
The real issue isn't America's readiness for a woman president — it's that Democrats keep nominating the wrong women.
Hillary Clinton was one of the most corrupt and unlikable politicians to ever run for president, dragging decades of scandals and a reputation for dishonesty behind her.
Kamala Harris couldn't string together coherent sentences without a teleprompter and flip-flopped on virtually every major issue when it became politically convenient.
The View co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said what everyone outside the liberal bubble already knew.
"I respectfully disagree with the First Lady," Griffin said of Obama's comments. "I don't think that we're not ready. I think when you look at the two candidates that were Democratic nominees, Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris, there's always sexism that plays in, [but] they were flawed candidates."⁷
Voters didn't reject Clinton and Harris because they were women.
They rejected them because they were terrible candidates who ran disastrous campaigns.
Democrats nominated two of the most unlikable women in American politics and now act shocked that voters didn't embrace them.
Conservative women connect with voters in ways liberal candidates never will
Behar naming Liz Cheney as a potential winner exposes Democrats' fundamental misunderstanding of American voters — though Cheney herself has zero chance after betraying Republicans and campaigning for Harris.
Cheney is radioactive with conservatives after she joined Nancy Pelosi's January 6 witch hunt and voted to impeach Trump twice.
But Behar's broader point stands — conservative women appeal to voters in ways liberal women don't.
Conservative female leaders don't lecture Americans about their supposed moral failings or demand everyone bend to progressive ideology.
Conservative women talk about border security, bringing back manufacturing jobs, energy independence, and keeping men out of women's sports.
You know, issues regular people actually care about.
Hostin makes everything about race. Every single conversation.
Conservative women don't do that.
Look at Kristi Noem in South Dakota. Nikki Haley at the UN. Karoline Leavitt crushing it as White House Press Secretary.
They're not constantly playing victim or demanding special treatment.
Democrats trot out candidates who lecture voters about their carbon footprint while flying private jets.
Then they're shocked when working Americans tell them to pound sand.
The Democrat Party got so captured by Twitter activists that their female candidates spend more time virtue signaling about pronouns than fixing the economy.
Conservative women don't walk around announcing they're women every five seconds.
They don't blame sexism when someone disagrees with their terrible ideas.
They just do the job and let results speak for themselves.
They let their accomplishments speak for themselves.
Behar accidentally revealed what Democrats refuse to acknowledge — when the right conservative woman runs for president, she'll win not despite being a woman, but because she's the best candidate regardless of gender.
That's something Democrats and their media allies will never understand.
