Whoopi Goldberg was visibly upset with herself on Tuesday’s episode of The View after she accidentally said Donald Trump’s name on air during a discussion about the upcoming presidential debate on June 27.
Expressing support for current President Joe Biden, Goldberg, 68, said: “I think it would be remiss of us not to say, ‘Joe Biden knows how to do this.’ He knows how to do this, he’s pretty good at this.
Turning her attention to Trump, who demanded that Biden take a drug test before the debate, Goldberg continued: “You can’t refute anything with him because he just… when I say he I mean…” as she Co-host Joy Behar chimed in and said, “Trump,” prompting Goldberg to repeat her.
The Sister Act star, who always refuses to say the former president’s name and often refers to the 78-year-old as ‘you know who’, immediately leaned over and mimed spitting on the ground in disgust when she realized what had happened. saying.
A surprised Sunny Hostin asked, “Did you say his name?” to which Goldberg responded: ‘I said her name, it was a trick and he made me do it. I’m just saying Biden knows what not to do. You can’t refute that man, because he just goes around and around and around. The only thing you can really do is talk about what you do and how you do what you do.’

Behar, 81, then suggested how Biden should make his points on June 27, saying, “But he should do it like this…” while Trump was gargling lysun, whatever I was drinking, I was fixing infrastructure. While Trump was doing A, B and C, I was doing this.” That way he can criticize Trump and say what he did.”
Former White House aide Alyssa Farah Griffin, who previously worked for Trump, said then: “Let’s not forget that Donald Trump is here saying that Joe Biden needs to take a drug test.”
“But I was with him in 2020, he lied to the American public, the debate commission, the Biden campaign and senior White House staff and hid the fact that he tested positive for Covid and showed up to the debate having Covid,” he said. the 35-year-old added.
Goldberg responded: ‘Listen, I’m sick of this guy, really. “I’m just sick of him,” comedian Behar agreed, saying, “We all are.”
Goldberg continued: ‘All I want to know is what can we expect in the next few years, because honestly, I can’t take any more nonsense, I don’t want to take any more nonsense. It’s too easy to prove the lies, the things are there.
‘And all these other clowns that sit with him, I don’t know if you’ll be here next year, I don’t want to think about you anymore. I just want to know, what are we going to do? Because I’m tired of trying to explain to my ten-year-old great-granddaughter why she should care. I don’t want to do that anymore.’

The EGOT winner’s comments come just two months after she lashed out at Trump live on The View after feeling “furious” about a comment he made about America being “anti-white.”
Trump had recently given an interview to time magazinein which he said that “there is clear anti-white sentiment in the country” and “that cannot be allowed.”
Speaking about Trump’s comments, Goldberg criticized his remarks, saying, “I’ll tell you before I say it, it infuriated me.” “There is clear anti-white sentiment in the country right now.”
No one in your family was hanged. No one in your family was persecuted because of the color of their skin. How dare you? There is no anti-white problem here. You are perpetrating anti-humanist issues here,” she ranted.
It’s certainly not the first time Goldberg has mocked the former president on air, and last year he even compared Trump supporters to cult members.
