Ana Navarro got heated on Friday's episode of The View, reigniting her anger over the Jan. 6 insurrection during a conversation about the ongoing hearings. As the country tunes in to the prime-time committee hearing, which kicked off yesterday (June 9), Navarro said she is once again feeling upset about what took place that day last winter.
"History will not whitewash or erase what happened on Jan. 6. Donald Trump, no matter how much people try to change the narrative, is going to go down in the annals of American history with the names of Benedict Arnold and Richard Nixon. He is a traitor," Navarro said.
The hearing, which presented the Jan. 6 committee's findings over the course of June, included evidence showing how former president Donald Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election.
Navarro continued, "We've had all these indictments so far, but the people who've been indicted were the cavalry. The generals have not yet been indicted. So what I hope is that as this committee goes through the case — and Liz Cheney did an excellent job yesterday laying out the case — seven different steps of things that Donald Trump did.
"She was speaking legal jargon, she was speaking to Merrick Garland, who better get off his duff and do something about this, because we cannot be a lawless country where a president with the help of people in Congress, who apparently were asking for presidential pardons, we cannot be a country where a president can try to stage a coup, get that close to it, where police officers end up hurt, where we are all in a level of shock."
Exasperated, Navarro practically spit out, "You know, I'm so angry again. I thought I had processed this because we've been hearing about it for so long."

Her co-host Joy Behar agreed, chiming in, "I'm furious," as Navarro added, "All of a sudden, this thing has me. I will never forgive Trump or his accomplices for the havoc they've wreaked on this country."
