   Joy Behar shocked audience members of “The View” on Thursday   
   when she implied that Donald Trump-voting East Palestine, Ohio   
   residents have nobody to blame but themselves for the toxic   
   train derailment that’s rocked the small town.   
      
   Audible gasps could be heard from the crowd after the comment by   
   Behar, who also insinuated that the devastating Feb. 3   
   derailment was a result of former President Donald Trump’s   
   actions in the White House.   
      
   “I don’t know why they would ever vote for him, for somebody   
   who, by the way, he placed someone with deep ties to the   
   chemical industry in charge of the EPA’s chemical safety   
   office,” Behar, 80, said.   
      
   The 80-year-old host then turned to face the camera with a   
   pointed finger.   
      
   “That’s who you voted for in that district. Donald Trump, who   
   reduces all safety.”   
      
   The crowd gasped at Bahr’s finger-pointing but didn’t seem to   
   have much of a reaction when co-host Sunny Hostin quipped, “I   
   think this is Donald Trump’s fault” just before the show panned   
   to a commercial break.   
      
   The panel had been discussing the train derailment — which has   
   so far contaminated at least 1.1 million gallons of water and   
   15,000 pounds of soil contaminated — and politicians’ response   
   to the tragedy.   
      
   Trump toured the community Wednesday, which Behar claimed was a   
   “photo-op” stunt.   
      
   The former president — who recently launched his 2024 White   
   House bid — handed out bottles of “Trump Water” and bought   
   McDonald’s for residents and first responders while condemning   
   President Biden for not making the same trip to the Ohio town.   
      
   “That’s called chutzpah! It’s his fault and then he shows up,”   
   Behar said.   
      
   Behar continually became more heated on the subject, especially   
   after co-host Alyssa Farah-Griffin called East Palestine “Trump   
   Country” and pointed out that the Republican won by about 40   
   points over Biden in the 2020 election.
