"Here's @TheView's Joy Behar admitting on national TV that she in fact wore blackface. Why are they denying it now?" asked Trump Jr.

This guy did.
She should be forced to wear “Blackface” at all times.

She admitted it was. She admitted she wore dark makeup and went to a party as a beautiful black woman.
Because it’s OK when Democrats do it.
I agree.
Being as ridiculous as the Left does not help us.
