The playful remark immediately sparked laughter, surprise, and a noticeably tense exchange among the panelists.<\/p>\n<p>The moment unfolded as the hosts reflected on Vance&#8217;s visit to the show earlier in the week. Behar defended her decision to engage with the vice president respectfully despite significant political disagreements.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s like with JD. He was here the other day,&#8221; Behar explained. &#8220;I respect the office.
