“The View” co-host Joy Behar told the panel Monday she would “personally take George Bush back” over President-elect Donald Trump.

The 74-year-old comedian praised George W. Bush during a segment about Meryl Streep’s slam on Trump. Streep attacked the president-elect during her speech at the Golden Globes for mocking a disabled reporter and urged him not to kick out foreigners. (RELATED: Kellyanne Conway Snaps Back At Streep: ‘She Lost’)

Behar then took a shot at Trump for his response via Twitter to Streep calling her “over-rated.”

“He’s supposed to be the president of the free world,” she exclaimed. “He’s not there to go tit for tat over every little sleight that goes through his thin skin.”

Half-way through the debate about Streep’s attack, Whoopi Goldberg talked about past elections of Bush and Bill Clinton and how people have a “different feel” about Trump. (RELATED: Hollywood Applauds Meryl Streep’s Slam On Trump During Golden Globes)

That’s when Behar interrupted saying she’d now take the last Republican president over Trump.

“I’d personally take George Bush back now,” Behar said.
