The View’s Ana Navarro jabs Elon Musk with ‘size joke’ about his cringey chainsaw
Navarro toyed with the idea of making a “size joke” about Musk brandishing a chainsaw at a recent event during a “View” interview with Sen. Amy Klobuchar.

The View star Ana Navarro just cut Elon Musk where she knows it’ll hurt.
After the controversial, hovering pseudo-political figure hoisted a chrome chainsaw above his head at the Feb. 20 Conservative Political Action Conference in Maryland, Musk received a jab from the Republican talk show panelist as the program welcomed Sen. Amy Klobuchar to the Hot Topics table for a Monday morning interview.

Amid the conversation, Klobuchar called Musk an “unelected billionaire” in the current American political process, before cohost Sara Haines began to ask a question about him.

“Senator, you heard us talk about Elon Musk earlier, who’s been charged with slashing spending kind of haphazardly with no understanding of what he’s cutting, necessarily,” Haines alleged. “President Trump said over the weekend he wants Elon to get even more aggressive. How does this look going forward?”
Klobuchar joked that Musk needs “a bigger chainsaw,” prompting Navarro to cut in with a quip of her own.
“I could make a size joke there, but I’m going to hold off because it’s 11 in the morning,” Navarro said as the studio audience laughed. Klobuchar leaned over, smiling as she touched Navarro’s arm and said, “I could feel it coming!”

Navarro is no stranger to bodily humor on the beloved talk show, as the 53-year-old once revealed that she’d like to breastfeed recording artist Maluma.
In addition to his recent political maneuvers, Musk’s personal life has also made headlines, especially after pop star Grimes recently made a now-deleted public plea for the billionaire to engage with her regarding their son’s “medical crisis.” (A representative for Musk did not respond to Entertainment Weekly‘s request for comment at the time.)
Elsewhere on The View, Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar recently mocked the name of Grimes and Musk’s son, X Æ A-Xii, on the Feb. 12 telecast.
