"[Kimberly] would be great as she would literally prosecute the other members of the panel every day of the week," they told the outlet. "One of our highest-rated episodes ever was when she stopped by the show with Don Jr."

"Her rep has in fact been having conversations with senior executives at ABC News over the past few months about many things, including her participation in celebrating the 25th season of The View, and she appreciates all the interest in her returning," Peter Capozzi told us. "Currently, she is in development on two food shows and her own lifestyle show, but she’d never say never to returning to her first television home."

"Ana doesn't deserve the chair. She is not a Republican in the true sense of the word, all she does is slam people who voted for Trump," they added.
