A full-out argument happened on the June 7 episode of The View.
The women were talking politics and things got heated.
With Alyssa Farah Griffin being one of the only Republicans on the panel, in addition to part-time host Ana Navarro, opinions can differ greatly.
After Mike Pence and Chris Christie announced that they were running for the 2024 presidential race, Sunny tried to call out Alyssa for defending Pence when she called him out in the past.

The show got thrown to commercial and when they came back, tensions had calmed down.
Now, fans are taking Alyssa's side in the argument and asking for Sunny to be fired.
'GET RID OF HER!'
The View fans flocked to Twitter to comment on the outrageous moment.

"@sunny is insufferable at times. We could deal without the eye rolls and the attitude - it’s giving bully. Constantly makes @Alyssafarah the enemy and it’s getting old," wrote one fan.
"Please do us a favor and get rid of the diva - Sunny. She treats Alyssa with such distain," said another.
A third chimed in on The View's tweet: "I never want to see anyone fired or let go, but she certainly needs to check herself. This game play of bullying the newcomers with a different opinion until they give up and leave is getting old. Women should be supporting women, period."
"Get rid of Sunny," tweeted another.
A fan tweeted: "I have never liked Sunny. Now I really cannot stand her. Please replace her."
"Sunny is too rude to Alyssa! She never looks at her especially when she thinks her view is better than hers!" said another.
An angry fan wrote: "I NEVER watch this show anymore because of the non-stop political arguing. @sunny was beyond rude! I loved this show in it’s early years, after today, I will make sure to change the channel before The View comes on. Sorry Barbara, what you started was great, now it’s a hot mess!"
"I dislike Sonny [sic] so much. She’s a bully and totally ignorant. So to that I have watched my last show!!" said another.
LIVID ON LIVE TV
The women talked about Chris Christie entering the presidential race, and Alyssa supporting Mike Pence in the 2024 election.
Alyssa is now saying that Pence was a big part in getting the Covid-19 vaccines approved.
Sunny's point was that she is now going back on her story and defending him and how some of the things Pence said was false.
"There were people who worked for this man, so I won't make it personal, but they weren't able to say, 'you should vote for this man because he did A, B, C, and D," Sunny said.
She went on to say that what "scared her" was that Alyssa was "incapable of defending a man that she worked for," but is now supporting him in the race.
"No no no. Why don't you ask me a question?" conservative host Alyssa defended.
"She did ask you a question," Joy Behar chimed in.
"You just accused me of something, so why don't you let me answer? You're not going to vote for a Republican ever," Alyssa said, as Sunny kept her cool and continued talking.
"Sunny likes to make it personal with me," Alyssa ripped as Sunny kept talking.
"Are you going to give me a chance to answer or...?"
Alyssa put her hands up in disbelief and looked out at the audience as Sunny kept rattling off her points.
'RUINING BARBARA'S LEGACY'
Alyssa continued: "This is not what this show is about. This is Barbara Walters' legacy. Let a woman speak."
The crowd clapped for Alyssa, but Sunny just kept talking and didn't allow Alyssa to get her point of views in.
"Everybody. You know it's Sunny Hostin's View," she ended.
Sara Haines tried to speak up and diffuse the tension, but Alyssa spoke over her.
Joy and Alyssa started arguing, as Sunny remained talking calmly.
Whoopi Goldberg turned to the camera and said: "Why do I feel like I need to go to break right now?"
Alyssa was heard pleading with Whoopi to speak before it cut to commercial.
"Because I can't hear anybody saying anything," Whoopi explained.
Alyssa threw her hands up and ripped: "Jesus Christ. What a disgrace."

"We have to figure out how to do this again," Whoopi said calmly. "We're gonna have this break, come back, and make this work. We'll be right back."
As the camera panned out, Alyssa could be seen putting her hand up and talking while the other co-hosts remained silent.
