Florida Republican strategist Ana Navarro announced via social media Tuesday afternoon that she will be joining ABC’s The View as a segment contributor.
“Excited that I’ll be joining #Season19 of @TheView as a political contributor. Looking forward to talking all things 2016 w/the ladies,” Navarro tweeted.
The 43-year-old political consultant — who for years worked in Florida, including haunting the halls of state government power in Tallahassee — is tailor-made for a show designed to appeal to women whose politics lean center-left to center-right.
“I get paid to talk politics, which I’ve done my entire life and I would do for free anyway,” Navarro told the Tampa Bay Times in 2013.
She seems primed to get paid a lot more for it as of today.
As of deadline Navarro had been congratulated by television personality Montel Williams as well as fellow Miami native U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.
“Congrats to mi gran amiga @ananavarro on joining @TheView as a #political contributor,” the locally popular GOP congresswoman’s tweet read. “Let the fireworks begin! ¡Dale!”
