Friday on ABC’s “The View,” actor Bradley Whitford said President Donald Trump is “nuts.”

When asked about the government shutdown over the border wall, Whitford said, “It’s a completely manufactured, insane moment that we’re in. This pin I wear is Jamie Gutenberg who was slaughtered in her school in Florida. Between 30,000 and 40,000 people die every year in this country in gun-related violence. That is an emergency.”

He added, “Listen, this is an insane situation. I mean, this is like an Al-Anon situation — daddy’s nuts. We’re forced into a relationship, and we have to get together and talk about it.”

Co-host Joy Behar said, “Something’s the matter with daddy.”

He added, “I said about Trump; it’s like Tony Soprano and Joey Buttafuoco had a baby who got to choose a third of the Supreme Court. It’s insane. What are we going to do? It’s insane.”
