Joy Behar took some time to gloat over the growing amount of President Donald Trump‘s supporters who have criticized his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, noting that this could be a sign that “things are changing.”

As she and her co-hosts discussed the recent revelation that Trump had been notified in May that his name appeared several times in the Epstein files, Behar shared a hopeful message with The View audience ahead of the show’s summer hiatus. “I wanted to tell people that the tide is turning. The tide is turning and things are changing,” she said.

After Whoopi Goldberg noted that his supporters “want answers,” Behar began listing off several of Trump’s most ardent supporters who have spoken out against the Trump administration’s refusal to release the Epstein files.

“Marjorie Taylor Greene said that she doesn’t accept Trump’s handling of the Epstein case,” Behar said. “Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Charlie Kirk have all taken aim over Epstein. Joe Rogan: ‘They can lie about all kinds of things, where’s the Epstein files?’”

“The list goes on and on,” she said, as she also mentioned that the QAnon Shaman – who was arrested at the January 6 riot – is “now calling him a fraud and a piece of whatever.”

“That is interesting to me and worth watching the news now because I want to see how this plays out,” she said. “Prior to this, they’ve been very much of acquiescence to the guy. But now that is changing. I feel positive about it and optimistic.”

Sunny Hostin speculated that the growing backlash has “spooked him.”

“The insurrection didn’t take him down. He often said, ‘I could shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue and no one would care.’ He was sort of the Teflon Don for so long and for this one thing to stick like this, I think has shocked him, I think it has spooked him,” she said.

She added that the biggest “red flag” she saw was his decision to continue denying having any kind of relationship with Epstein, though their friendship was “well documented.”

The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
