I think the fact that President Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize is still living rent-free in this president&#8217;s mind, and he still wants the Nobel Peace Prize,&#8221; Hostin expressed. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think he&#8217;s going to get the Nobel Peace Prize, I don&#8217;t think he&#8217;s worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize, quite frankly. This is a made-up award for him, this FIFA award.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Hostin pointed out &#8220;corruption scandals&#8221; and <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/general-news-bbeaaa6d916f433aa0be2f4b709b7d39\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"externalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">past scandals involving FIFA and racketeering<\/a> allegations, as well as alleged bribery revolving around World Cup host cities.\n<\/p>\n<p> Ana Navarro gives &#8216;The View&#8217; cohosts fake medals.<\/p>\n<p>ABC<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_11-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;This seems very much like a pay-for-play situation for me, as a former prosecutor, and I think we need to look at that,&#8221; finished Hostin. &#8220;If people can just buy this president by giving him a fake award, what else is happening that we don&#8217;t know about?&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Republican panelist Ana Navarro added that, &#8220;at a time when he is banning people from different countries from being able to get into the United States, FIFA needs people from all over the world who come and see the World Cup games, to be able to get U.S. visas.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_17-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Her words come as North American nations prepare to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup soccer event from June-July of next year.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_19-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Navarro further alleged that, &#8220;FIFA needs Trump not to send ICE to conduct raids and intimidate people who go to these games <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/trump-administration-threatens-ice-at-super-bowl-for-bad-bunny-halftime-show-11822813\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">like he&#8217;s threatening to do with the Super Bowl because they have Bad Bunny<\/a> singing in the halftime show.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_23-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Navarro continued, joking that, &#8220;If you show up with a tchotchke, preferably covered in gold, and give that to the three-year-old in the Oval Office, he will be entertained and he will be happy.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_25-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> The CNN commentator then stood up from the Hot Topics table to reveal that she had fake medals in her pocket, and distributed them to each of her cohosts on the air.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/person\/alyssa-farah-griffin\/\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Alyssa Farah Griffin<\/a>, who previously worked with Donald Trump at the White House before resigning from his administration, said that the award &#8220;just feels so cringe to me,&#8221; and said Trump is &#8220;focused on his legacy&#8221; so that the &#8220;history books can&#8217;t dismiss him as a fluke&#8221; for not following through on what she said were many unfulfilled promises made during his 2024 presidential campaign.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;He wants his own monument in Washington, D.C. He&#8217;s putting his name on different things throughout the capital, and I think he&#8217;s had a heavy focus on the world stage,&#8221; Griffin continued, before commending him on a recent deal in the Middle East. &#8220;What I keep hearing from his voters, people who count themselves as America-first voters, it seems like he&#8217;s more distracted by what&#8217;s happening around the world and not delivering back home, and that&#8217;s what will mark his legacy.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p> Donald Trump receives FIFA award.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Regan &#8211; FIFA\/FIFA via Getty<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_32-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Entertainment Weekly has reached out to representatives for the White House and FIFA for comment.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> The <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/white-house-statement-the-view-pulled-off-air-joy-behar-criticism-11777461\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">White House previously issued an exclusive statement to EW after another<\/a> View cohost, <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/person\/joy-behar\/\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Joy Behar<\/a>, also invoked Obama&#8217;s name in a criticism of Trump, when she alleged that the current president was &#8220;jealous of Obama&#8221; for his looks and because he&#8217;s &#8220;happily married&#8221; to Michelle Obama.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_36-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/ew-dispatch-newsletter-11812417\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">EW Dispatch newsletter<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome,&#8221;\u00a0a White House spokesperson said at the time.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_40-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> The View\u00a0airs weekdays on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/entity\/abc\/\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ABC<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The View cohosts slammed Donald Trump&#8217;s recent FIFA award as &#8220;fake&#8221; and &#8220;cringe.&#8221;Sunny Hostin thinks Obama winning the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":181548,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[93,61,60,282],"class_list":{"0":"post-181547","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-ie","10":"tag-ireland","11":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181547","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181547"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181547\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181548"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181547"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181547"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181547"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
