Former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre reportedly hoped to be a co-host of “The View” after leaving the Biden administration.
The former Biden spokesperson wanted a seat at the table on the liberal ABC News talk show, Politico reported Wednesday, citing former Biden administration officials.
Her predecessor, Jen Psaki, now has a primetime hosting gig at left-leaning MSNBC.
Jean-Pierre revealed she was ditching the Democratic Party on Wednesday and becoming an independent in an announcement for her new book, “Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines,” which is set to be released in October.
Jean-Pierre appeared on “The View” several times while she was press secretary.
After former President Joe Biden exited the 2024 race, Jean-Pierre’s first interview was in New York with the show’s hosts.
According to Politico, no opportunity with “The View” materialized.
