Summary at a Glance

While speaking about the tech billionaire’s working relationship with President Donald Trump on Thursday’s episode of The View, Behar remarked that Musk purely served as Trump’s ego-booster.

Trump raged in his order that South Africa’s government is seizing “ethnic minority Afrikaners’ agricultural property without compensation” and enacting “countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity” in employment, education and business.”.

Joy Behar has retracted her bold proclamation that the South African-born Elon Musk was “pro-apartheid” after she said she received flack for her comment.

“And [Trump] can take a nap while the guy, who was not born in this country, who was born under apartheid in South Africa — so has that mentality going on — he was pro-apartheid, as I understand it,” she continued.

Once they returned, Behar addressed viewers, saying: “Now I’m getting some flack because I said that Musk was pro-apartheid.
