Joy Behar: It’s ‘Un-Christian’ For Trump To Say God Was Watching Over Him

“The View” host Joy Behar complained on Friday about former President Donald Trump’s claim that God had been watching out for him when, after he turned his head at the last second, a would-be assassin’s bullet grazed his ear rather than striking him in the head.

Behar argued that only a narcissist would say that God had saved his life, especially when someone else — firefighter and hero Corey Comperatore — had died in the same shooting that he survived.

“I want to point out one thing,” Behar began. “I’m speaking to fellow Christians. I was raised Catholic. I’m a Christian girl. When something like this happens to you, like this assassination attempt, and you say something like ‘God was watching me,’ that is a very un-Christian thing to say because it’s very narcissistic.”

Behar went on to accuse Trump of suggesting that because God was looking out for him, He was not looking out for Comperatore – but halfway through the accusation, she forgot Comperatore’s name.

“What about Corey – what’s his name? — Comperatore, the fireman who also got killed? What about all those guys that killed on — Sandy Hook, all of those people,” she continued. “Oh, God was watching me and not watching them? There’s something very disturbing about that.”

“God should’ve pulled the plug on that mic yesterday!” cohost Ana Navarro chimed in.

Behar laughed: “Wait, God is a technician now?”

Trump has said on several occasions that he believes “God alone” could have saved him from the bullet that reportedly came within a quarter inch of taking his life.
