While Vice President Mike Pence appreciates Joy Behar’s apology for mocking his Christian faith on television, he believes that she also owes an apology to the millions of Americans who took offense to her comments.

During a discussion with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, which aired Monday, Pence also said that he gives a lot of credit to the ABC co-host for her personal apology to him.

What triggered the comments?
Behar suggested during a February airing of  ABC’s“The View” that Pence’s mental fitness is not up to par because the vice president has reportedly said that God speaks to him.

Behar’s commentary began after the show’s co-hosts cued video footage featuring former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman’s comments on “Celebrity Big Brother,” in which the former staffer discussed the Trump administration.

Newman, in the clip, said, “As bad as you think Trump is, you would be worried about Pence. … Everyone that is wishing for impeachment might want to reconsider their life.”

“I am Christian, I love Jesus, but [Pence] thinks Jesus tells him to say things,” Newman concluded.

The panel on “The View” then went on to discuss Newman’s analysis of Pence’s faith. That’s when Behar made a comment connecting Pence’s faith to mental illness.

“It’s one thing to talk to Jesus,” Behar said. “It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you,” adding that hearing voices is symptomatic of “mental illness.”
