'View' co-host credits Trump for attending funeral of NYPD officer while Biden fundraises with celebrities

"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin admitted that former President Trump understood what "resonated" with middle America better than President Biden does, as the two presidential nominees are slated to attend very different events Thursday in New York City.

Trump is expected to attend the wake for slain New York Police Officer Jonathan Diller, who was killed by a career criminal during a traffic stop on Monday.

Farah Griffin was asked to comment on the "optics" behind these decisions during an appearance on CNN Thursday morning. The political commentator conceded that it would benefit Trump with the average American voter.
