Whoopi Goldberg Slams Donald Trump’s ‘Anti-White Feeling’ Remark
Trump recently made the controversial remark during an interview with Time Magazine. He alleged that the Biden administration is “sort of against anybody depending on certain views.”
“They’re against Catholics. They’re against a lot of different people … I think there is a definite anti-white feeling in this country, and that can’t be allowed either,” Trump added.
“The View” co-host Goldberg was infuriated by Trump’s comments about an alleged wave of “anti-white feeling” in America and went on to slam the former president on the talk show.
“Nobody in your family was hung. Nobody in your family was chased because of the color of their skin. How dare you? There’s no anti-white issue here,” Goldberg said. “You are perpetrating [sic] anti-humanist issues here.”

‘The View’ Co-Hosts Were Not Shocked By Donald Trump’s Comments
During the show, none of the “The View” co-hosts seemed surprised by the things Trump had to say in his Time interview, with Goldberg reading out loud the ex-president’s intentions to allow states to “monitor a woman’s pregnancy” and also use the “military to deport migrants.”
Alyssa Farah Griffin, an ex-Trump aide, noted that she wasn’t taken aback by what her former boss said, as she and others have been telling Republicans about it for the past four years.
“I wasn’t as taken aback as I should be because for the last four years, myself, others who spoke out against him, have been saying literally line by line in his own words what he’s saying in this piece,” Griffin stated.

She added, “It is devastating to me that that is not resonating with Republicans, a party I’ve been a member of my whole life. That they’re just not believing it.”

Donald Trump Discussed His 2024 Plans
Elsewhere in Trump’s interview with Time, the former president revealed his plans for a potential second term, disclosing that he’ll pursue policies that would address what he believes is right for America.
Trump said he is going “to levy taxes and fines against schools” he sees as “too woke.” He also publicly announced his intention to support bills targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in higher education that have been filed in statehouses across the country.
“I don’t think it would be a very tough thing to address, frankly,” Trump says. “But I think the laws are very unfair right now. And education is being very unfair, and it’s being stifled.”

He continued, “But I don’t think it’s going to be a big problem at all. But if you look right now, there’s absolutely a bias against white [people], and that’s a problem.”
The Ex-President Was Fined $9,000 For Violating His Gag Order
Trump’s interview with Time magazine comes after he was held in contempt for violating his gag order in his hush money trial.
Judge Juan Merchan ruled that the billionaire mogul was held in contempt for nine violations of his gag order and was fined $1,000 for each.
In Merchan’s ruling, he cautioned Trump that he would not tolerate any more violations of the gag order, adding that “if necessary and appropriate under the circumstances,” he would impose “an incarceratory punishment” on the 77-year-old.

“The fact that [Trump] asked about her in the White House, the fact that some… White House staff got on the phone with David Pecker to talk about keeping this secret even further. Those were new details to me, and so I know they were new details to [Melania], and I’m sure she’s not happy about it,” Grisham shared.
“Now, make no mistake, she’s not sitting at home, you know, crying over this, but you know, like any…married woman or woman in a relationship, it’s not fun to hear these details,” she continued.
