Vice President JD Vance<\/a> is set to make his first appearance on ABC’s “The View” on Wednesday, becoming just the third sitting vice president to join the daytime talk show’s panel.<\/p>\n

“It may be the optimist in me, but I just fundamentally think that most people \u2014 not everybody, but most people \u2014 even if I disagree with them, you ought to try to have a conversation with them,” Vance told Fox News Digital in a sit-down interview Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Vance will join all six co-hosts, including Whoopi Goldberg<\/a>, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin and Ana Navarro, to discuss his new book, “Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith.” His appearance comes on the heels of the Trump administration’s newly reached agreement with Iran, in which the vice president played a key role in negotiations.<\/p>\n

Asked how he was preparing for the interview, Vance said he was approaching it as an opportunity for an earnest conversation, even with people whose views differ from his own.<\/p>\n

“My job as vice president of the United States<\/a> is not just to talk to the people who voted for me, it’s to talk to the people who didn’t vote for me too,” said Vance.<\/p>\n

“We’re going to go and try to have a good conversation. I hope they meet me halfway. I’m a little skeptical, but we’ll see,” he added.<\/p>\n

Vance’s appearance comes after years of criticism from the show’s hosts, who have repeatedly targeted both him and his wife since he was tapped as President Donald Trump’s<\/a> running mate.<\/p>\n

Co-host Joy Behar argued Vance was selected to serve as vice president to be a “carbon copy” of Trump and would fail to bring in any new voters.<\/p>\n

[Trump] “knows that he\u2019s the vice president who will do the things that Mike Pence<\/a> would not. I really do believe that. He is an election denier. He has not committed to accepting the results of this year\u2019s elections,” Hostin said during the same episode in July 2024.<\/p>\n

Co-host Ana Navarro once pointed<\/a> out that Walz could have an opportunity to embarrass Vance prior to the vice-presidential debate last year.<\/p>\n

“What Tim Walz<\/a> needs to do is reveal JD Vance for who he is, a coward, duplicitous, hypocritical opportunist who remains silent while Trump attacks Kamala Harris for being biracial even though his children are biracial,” Navarro said. “Who remained silent while Trump supporters issue attacks on Kamala Harris for being of Indian descent, for being South Asian, even though he\u2019s married to an Indian woman.”<\/p>\n

Vance will be the third sitting vice president to join the program and the first Republican vice president to do so, after appearances by Joe Biden<\/a> and Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n

“The View” had a total of 341 guests in 2025, but only two of them were conservative, while 128 were liberal, according to a study conducted by the Media Research Center’s NewsBusters.<\/p>\n

In a media appearance Monday, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said she plans to ask Vance about the financial incentives being proposed to Iran under the newly announced peace agreement.<\/p>\n

“He was, um, reportedly one of the chief negotiating partners. I just want to get some clarity,” she said.<\/p>\n
