'Filthy, Dirty, Disgusting': Trump Has Furious Meltdown About Whoopi Goldberg

Former President Donald Trump lashed out at Whoopi Goldberg and others involved with “The View” after the ABC talk show hosted Vice President Kamala Harris earlier this week.

“I watch that stupid ‘View’ where you have these really dumb people,” Trump said at a rally in Reading, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday.

The Republican nominee then diverged into an anecdote about Goldberg, one of the hosts of the show ― complaining that she once asked him to make a cameo in a movie but now won’t even mention his name. “Politics can do strange things to demented people,” he said.

He also claimed he had once hired Goldberg as a comedian for an event.

“Her mouth was so foul,” he said. “Every word out of her mouth was like the F-word… I was with a group of people, like sort of nice people, and we had to leave. She was so filthy, dirty, disgusting, half the place left. I said I’d never hire her again. But she was so dirty.”

He proceeded to call her a “loser.”

He segued from bashing “The View” into calling Harris a “dumb person,” leading him to admit that a member of his own staff had asked him not to use that insult at the risk of offending women voters.

“Somebody said to me, one of my people, a nice person, staff person said, ‘Sir, please don’t call her dumb. The women won’t like it,’” he said. “The women want to see our country come back! They don’t care.”

Trump had posted on Truth Social on Tuesday similarly calling Harris a “dummy” and attacking panelists on “The View” as “dumb women.”

The Republican nominee has a long, amply documented history of making sexist remarks and using nasty and disparaging names for women.
