The View's Whoopi Goldberg and President Joe Biden have something new in common: Both are part of the summer surge in new, generally mild Covid cases, and Goldberg is willing to cut Biden some slack.

Goldberg returned to The View panel on Tuesday after being out since last Thursday with Covid. Yesterday, Biden announced he had tested positive for Covid and was in isolation with mild symptoms.
In today's Hot Topics discussion on The View, the show's hosts weighed in on whether the president will cave to Democratic Party calls to step down and let a younger candidate like Vice President Kamala Harris take on challenger Donald Trump.
Biden supporter Joy Behar opened the discussion by saying, "It's so depressing, the whole thing. I think he's going to stop now… If Pelosi gets involved in this, and Schumer, and Schiff and Jeffries, and they all say it's time to go… You know, Covid is in a way a good way for him to get out. He needs this time to show how strong he is and he's sick and the time is very, very short now" [until the election].
