'The View' host worries Biden may be triggered at debate by Hunter comments
The co-hosts of ABC’s "The View" speculated on what President Biden and former President Trump need to do to have a successful debate night, with one warning that Trump could bring up Hunter Biden son.
The panel discussed what could happen during Thursday's CNN-hosted event and argued that Biden needs to do his best to "rattle" Trump and make him emotional. Co-host Joy Behar, however, warned that Trump could do the same.
"What if Trump says something about his son, about Biden’s son — that’s a trigger point?" Behar said.

The panelists considered what Trump and Biden both need to do for successful debates. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said Trump will have a good night if he appears "not crazy" and keeps his talking points to substantive policy.
Ana Navarro added that if Biden shows up and stays conscious, he will have been successful, since that would counter a conservative narrative.
"I think the Republicans and Trump and his minions have done themselves such a disservice with all of these edited cut and splice videos spreading around of Biden seeming lost and decrepit," she said. "They’ve lowered the bar so that if Joe Biden shows up and doesn’t keel over on his way to the podium, he’s had a good night."
Navarro also stated that Biden needs to look for ways to rattle Trump.
"I think he needs to mock him, get under his skin. He needs to cure Trump amnesia that this country has and remind us of the horror of the four years," she said.
Her colleague Sarah Haines agreed to riling up Trump, but said she doesn’t think Biden needs to resort to mockery.
