The hosts of The View are no strangers to stirring controversy, but lately, their inflammatory rhetoric has reached new levels. They have openly embraced conspiracy theories about Donald Trump to repeatedly target Republicans with baseless accusations.
The ladies of The View get away with pushing narratives that would be front-page scandals if they came from conservative talk shows. Somehow, the mainstream media is content to let them continue unchecked. And when it comes to Whoopi Goldberg, the pattern is no different.
Goldberg has a long history of making eyebrow-raising comments that many find offensive, and this isn’t her first dance with controversy. In early 2022, she ignited outrage with remarks that minimized the Holocaust, leading to a temporary suspension.
But here we are again, and Goldberg’s latest remarks against Trump have some viewers stunned, while ABC stays silent. This time, her conspiracy? She claims Trump, if re-elected, will target interracial marriages by deporting non-white spouses—a claim so far-fetched it could be mistaken for satire if it weren’t real.
From Daily Wire:
Whoopi Goldberg claimed on Monday that former President Donald Trump, if reelected to the presidency on November 5, would break up interracial marriages solely to deport the non-white spouse…“He’s not gonna be — he’s not gonna say, ‘Oh, you’re with a white guy, I’m gonna keep you from being deported,’” she shouted. “No, he’s gonna deport you and put the white guy with someone else. The man is out there!”
Whoopi’s “Out There” Conspiracy Theory
On Monday’s episode, Whoopi Goldberg went on a rant about Trump that left viewers both perplexed and concerned. According to Goldberg, Trump has a plan to break up interracial marriages if he wins back the presidency. Yes, you read that right. She claimed Trump would deport the non-white partner in interracial couples, all to “put the white guy with someone else.”
Goldberg, who famously avoids saying Trump’s name, didn’t hold back, insisting this was all part of his supposed “out there” agenda. Her allegations raised plenty of eyebrows but, unsurprisingly, weren’t met with any on-air correction or pushback from her co-hosts.
The idea that Trump—or anyone in a high-ranking political position—would deport one partner in interracial marriages is so absurd it defies belief. Yet Goldberg delivered it with conviction, even raising her voice to hammer home her point.
This is a claim with no basis in reality, but if The View has proven anything, it’s that reality doesn’t seem to be a limiting factor. And even as Goldberg’s statement sparked a buzz online, ABC, which produces The View, hasn’t shown any signs of reining her in.
Mika Brzezinski Adds Fuel to the Fire
As if Goldberg’s rant weren’t enough, the guest on Monday’s show, MSNBC’s Morning Joe host Mika Brzezinski, took the opportunity to paint a dark picture of Trump’s recent rally at Madison Square Garden. Brzezinski didn’t hold back, claiming the rally had “historic parallels” to a Nazi rally held at the same venue in 1939.
She described Trump’s supporters as a “white nationalist, Nazi-type rally,” leaning into a familiar Democrat narrative that Trump and his followers are akin to fascists.
Brzezinski, who often speaks about her family’s experiences as refugees, teared up as she warned of an “impending descent into fascism” should Trump win another term. For Brzezinski, re-electing Trump is practically the end of America as we know it.
With an air of impending doom, she urged viewers to get out and vote, claiming that women would be “the beacon in this election.” Her dramatic language and tearful warnings are the kind of political theater that The View audience has come to expect, but it certainly didn’t add credibility to her claims.
The View’s Free Pass on Dangerous Rhetoric
There’s something undeniably strange about how The View hosts are allowed to spew one conspiracy after another without being fact-checked or held accountable. Imagine if conservative hosts on Fox News made similar claims against Democrats.
The backlash would be immediate, and the demands for retraction and apologies would be deafening. But in the world of The View, spreading unverified, baseless claims is just another day on set.
Goldberg’s latest tirade underscores a growing double standard in media. Hosts like Goldberg and Brzezinski can accuse Trump and his supporters of nearly anything—from breaking up interracial marriages to promoting white nationalism—without a second thought.
But when it comes to demanding accountability, the media turns a blind eye. ABC’s silence on the matter speaks volumes, as does the larger media ecosystem’s unwillingness to call out falsehoods if they align with a specific political narrative.
Double Standards and Media Bias
This lack of accountability is emblematic of a media landscape deeply divided along ideological lines. When Goldberg previously made inappropriate remarks about Jewish people, she faced a temporary suspension, but that seemed to be more about optics than genuine reprimand.
Her return to The View came without much fanfare, and it was business as usual. It’s clear that her network, and much of the media, will excuse extreme rhetoric as long as it’s aimed at the “right” targets.
With no checks and balances, The View hosts continue to push conspiracy theories that, if reversed and aimed at Democrats, would trigger a media meltdown.
The inconsistency here is glaring, and the silence from higher-ups at ABC only serves to embolden this type of rhetoric. As the 2024 election cycle ramps up, expect even more outlandish claims on The View with minimal accountability.
Key Takeaways
- Whoopi Goldberg claimed Trump would deport non-white spouses in interracial marriages if re-elected, an accusation with no factual basis.
- MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski compared a Trump rally to a Nazi gathering, sparking further divisive rhetoric.
- The View hosts continue to spread baseless theories with minimal accountability from their network or the media.
