Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg dismissed Donald Trump's supporters as 'uneducated' on The View after the president said the US is 'on track' to complete all of its military objectives in Iran 'in two or three weeks.'

Trump, 79, made the assertion while addressing the nation live on Wednesday.

A few minutes into Thursday's View, Goldberg, 70, first revealed she did not actually tune in to the speech.  

'Oh, I'm sorry,' Behar, 83, jokingly said, before recalling some of Trump's remarks.

'He wants to bring a country to the Stone Age', Behar said, calling the commander-in-chief 'crazy' for his claims.

She went on: 'Also, there's like magical thinking that all of a sudden the gas prices, which are $10 in California in some parts - a gallon - and the stock market is in the toilet. He thinks this is magically going to come back. Does he really think we're that stupid?'

'Yes. He does,' Goldberg quipped.

'Yeah, but I'm not one of the poorly educated, okay? Those are the ones he thinks he can get to and those people will turn on him,' Behar shot back.

Goldberg - and Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines - all appeared to agree. 

'The crazy thing is even the poorly educated recognize when they're being grifted,' Goldberg said as she weighed in.

She added: 'Just because you don't have book learning doesn't mean you don't- you're not smart enough to know when somebody is bamboozling you.'

Trump had told attendees the day before of the Iran war: 'I can say tonight that we are on track to complete all of America's military objectives shortly.'      

'Very shortly, we are going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks.'

He also touted the prospect of bringing Iran back into 'the stone ages, where they belong'.

Behar's reaction appeared to reference Trump's then-viral claim, 'I love the poorly educated' - delivered during a 2016 speech in Las Vegas following his win in the Nevada Republican caucuses.

Trump, at the time, said: 'We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated.' His whirlwind campaign, back then, also touted an 'America First' approach to foreign policy.

Strikes on Iran, meanwhile, began on February 28. Iran retaliated to US-Israel strikes by closing off the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow body of water between Iran and Oman through which a fifth of the world's oil flows.

The vital waterway has been effectively blocked since the conflict began due to tankers being attacked.

Oil prices have rocketed as a result. Behar on Thursday told her cohosts Americans were turning on Trump because they were now 'feeling [the consequences of the war] themselves at the pump.'

Military operations in Iran, moreover, are now nearing their sixth week. Global markets are expected to weaken further if the conflict continues.

Trump on Wednesday insisted the strait 'will just open up naturally' as US-Israel strikes continue.
