'Tighty-whities in a twist': The View laughs at effect Harris is having on Trump
One of Donald Trump's former staffers thinks that he's being "triggered" by Vice President Kamala Harris as she launches her campaign for president.
On Friday, the co-hosts of "The View" teased Trump for struggling with Harris' entry to the race.
After showing a new campaign ad, Joy Behar said, "So, there's a shiny new candidate in town, and someone's tighty-whities are in a twist. Remember when Trump promised to be a uniter and president for all Americans? That's over because he's back to being a bully."

Trump told a North Carolina crowd that Harris is his latest "victim," then mispronounced her name.
"How triggered is he now?" Behar asked Alyssa Farah Griffin, who worked as communications director in Trump's White House.
"He's extremely triggered," she predicted. "He thought he was going to run against Joe Biden and riding high on this wave of doing better. And today, the first general election poll from Morning Consult came out that has Kamala Harris ahead of Donald Trump, and she's been in the race, like, five days."
She called the 2024 race "fundamentally shaken up" by the Harris roll-out and VP running mate J.D. Vance's flubs.
"I have to give her credit. I had wanted Biden to step aside and pass the baton," Griffin said. "She wasn't my first choice. I was worried she would run to the left, and she is running a smart general election campaign.
"Her message is the economy, paid family leave, she says the core focus of her campaign and presidency will be restoring the middle class. The one thing she needs to lean into, and is capable of doing, is the border."
"She needs to articulate her administration negotiated a border package that Donald Trump blocked," Griffin urged. "If she can do that, there's absolutely a path in these next three months for her to win."
