THE VIEW host Joy Behar has snapped at a guest who appeared on the show on Friday.
After talking about a political issue, Rick Klein suggested that she should get another job and go out there to ask the questions.

Rick is the Political Director of ABC News and he appeared on the show to talk politics and the upcoming midterm elections.
Ana Navarro told him that in the Summer, the Republicans seemed ahead in polls, but after the overturn of Roe v. Wade, Democrats seemed to have gotten ahead.
She asked the ABC News journalist what his predictions were.
As he went on to talk, Joy Behar stopped him and asked him a question: “Let ask you. When your reporters say they’re worried about gas. They’re worried about that, do they follow up and ask if people think the Republicans will be able to fix this?”
Rick began to give an explanation and Joy said: “It’s a follow up question.”
He joked and asked: “Do you want the job? We’ll send you out there right now.”
Joy continued to ask her question and said that it wasn’t an argument but a follow-up question.
Alyssa Farah Griffin, who is the conservative host on the panel, spoke up and said: “We need to give Joy a cameo on the show.”

Rick said: “Seriously. You’ve got a permanent invitation from me.”
Joy just smiled as the other hosts continued on with the subject.
NEW VIEW?
Earlier this month, Joy turned 80 years old and is still rocking her place on the panel.
She updated her fans on her retirement plans as she reached the milestone birthday.
The View star is the only original panelist still appearing since the 1997 premiere.
Joy has no plans to slow down, however.
The TV personality told People she wants to keep her career going as long as possible, saying: “I just signed a contract so I’ll be here for a while.
“I have no plans to retire.”
She also gushed over the morning talk show, adding: “It’s really, you know, something that is an important show in many ways.
“Sometimes I don’t believe that, as I’ve been here since the beginning, but we’re the most-watched show in daytime. Most-watched!”
She closed: “I’m happy to be a part of it. So no, I’m not going anywhere. I’m having a good time.”
GOLDEN BIRTHDAY
Joy’s co-stars celebrated her 80th birthday on-air Friday although she wasn’t part of the panel that day.
Moderator Whoopi Goldberg, 66, told viewers: “We want to start by wishing Joy a very happy birthday.”
“We will have plenty of celebrating when she gets back here next week.
“But you know we had to say it because you know she hates it when we do.”
DECADES OF THE VIEW
Though Joy joined the cast of The View in 1997, she was fired from the series in 2013.
However, the comedian was asked to return in 2015, and once claimed she still doesn’t know the reason behind the hiatus.
“We still don’t know why they dumped me,” she told People.
“They still don’t know why I was sacked? That was very stupid of them. But they learned their lesson.”
But in a previous conversation with Time Magazine, the redhead said it might’ve actually been a good decision to take a break.
“I was glad to be fired. I basically was sick of the show at that point for some reason, I don’t even remember why,” she explained.
