Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro’s Thursday appearance on “The View” was a disaster, to say the least — but not because of Pirro or anything she did.
She was there to promote her new book, “Liars, Leakers, and Liberals,” but the panel of hosts could not stop asking and talking about the president.
The worst offender was Whoopi Goldberg. She ended the interview at one point, saying, “I’m done.” She did so after Pirro accused her of having “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
The interview is tough to watch, but Pirro has revealed that the interaction with Goldberg afterward was much worse than anyone could imagine.
“I’m still reeling from it, to be honest with you. I went on thinking we would have a discussion about the book. The truth is that it was an attack on Donald Trump and then on me. I sat there as Whoopi Goldberg pontificated about how horrible Donald Trump was and at one point I said, ‘You know, I’m here to talk about the book,’ and then she went ballistic,” Pirro told Sean Hannity’s radio show.
“She ended the segment. She said, ‘That’s it. I’m done,'” Pirro continued. “What people didn’t see from watching the show was she yanked away from the desk where we were all sitting, and she decided that she was going to end it. No one saw that, but it got worse.”
Pirro said Goldberg began cursing at her and causing even more of a scene. “When I went off the stage, Sean, I was walking downstairs, and I said something like, ‘Whoopi, I’ve fought for victims my whole life,’ and she came at me as I was leaving and she said, ‘F you’ in my face, literally spitting at me. ‘F you, get the F out of this building!’ And I said to her, ‘Did you just say that?’ And she said, ‘That’s what I just said, get the F out of this building.’ And she was screaming at me, and I’m walking out of the building like a dog who was just kicked off. So forget about what she did to me on set, which was horrific in itself, but the treatment by Whoopi Goldberg is typical of what is going on in this country.”
So Goldberg’s defense for being accused of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” was to curse and berate a Trump supporter?
Hmm. Interesting strategy.
