“The View” host Joy Behar says President Donald Trump’s press secretary Sean Spicer, “there’s still time to get out” after he reportedly gave inaccurate information about crowd size at the inauguration.
On Monday, the 74-year-old co-host encouraged Spicer to leave the administration similar to when she told Trump’s senior adviser Kellyanne Conway to do the same. (RELATED: Joy Behar: Trump Is Bringing ‘Mental Illness’ To The White House [VIDEO])

“Get out now Sean, get out now,” Behar said. “I said it to Kellyanne [Conway], I’m saying it to you Sean. There’s time to get out. You’ll get a job on CNN trust me.” (RELATED: The Women Of ‘The View’ Turn On Kellyanne Conway: You Sound ‘Delusional’)

Co-host Sunny Hostin added that he would have power if he did.
“He has a lot of power,” Hostin said. “Can you imagine if he quit how much power he would have.”
Whoopi Goldberg then attacked Republicans for “selling their soul” for Trump’s presidency.
“This is a conversation to Republicans as well,” Goldberg said. “You’re selling your soul out for something and I don’t think you realize the price that we’re going to pay.”
During Monday’s press briefing Spicer stood by his statement when he called the group gathered the “largest to ever witness an inauguration, period.”
“It was the total largest audience in person and around the globe,” Spicer said.
