Alyssa Farah Griffin, former communications director for ex-president Donald Trump, has recently served as co-host on The View.
There are even rumors of Alyssa becoming a permanent conservative co-host on the show, replacing ex-panelist Meghan McCain.
According to the Daily Beast, when Wanda’s publicist was made aware that Alyssa was going to co-host Friday’s episode, Wanda wanted out.
A View insider told the Daily Beast: “She didn’t want to be part of helping a Trumper launder her reputation.”

The Sun’s request for comment from The View and a Wanda Sykes spokesperson were not immediately returned on Tuesday.
Wanda has been an outspoken critic of former president Trump in the past.
In an interview with NPR promoting Wanda’s Netflix special Not Normal, she talked about how hard it was to make fun of Trump, but for all the wrong reasons.
Wanda said: “You would think, ‘Oh boy, there’s so much to make fun of,’ but really I can’t write anything funnier or more ridiculous than what Trump actually says.”
