Trump recalls walking out of 'demented' Whoopi Goldberg's show because of her 'filthy, dirty' mouth
WASHINGTON, DC: During a rally in Reading, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump labeled Whoopi Goldberg as “demented” and “disgusting,” just days after she co-hosted Vice President Kamala Harris on 'The View'.
Staying true to how he conducts his rallies, Trump seized the opportunity to target Harris and other critics, particularly those who had recently featured the vice president on their platforms.
Donald Trump launches personal attacks on Whoopi Goldberg and Kamala Harris at rally
Donald Trump criticized Kamala Harris's recent appearance, declaring it “stupid” and filled with “really dumb people.”
He took his attacks further by focusing on Goldberg, an outspoken critic of his. “I did a walk-on for Whoopi Goldberg now she says ‘I refuse to mention his name,'” he remarked, referencing his cameo in her 1996 comedy film, 'Eddie'. He added, “You know what, politics can do strange things to demented people.”
Trump claimed that during their past interactions, Goldberg praised him, saying he was “so great” and even suggested he would win if he ran for president, stating, “If you ever ran for president, you’d win.” Recently, however, Goldberg has described Trump using terms like “moron,” “unhinged,” and “dictator,” famously vowing never to utter his name, instead referring to him as “you-know-who.”
Trump criticized Goldberg’s comedic routines and recalled the time when he had hired her for a performance but claimed she was so “filthy, dirty, disgusting” that her vulgarity drove audiences away.
He recounted, "Her mouth was so foul, every word out of her mouth was an F word. I was with a group of people and we had to leave. I said I would never hire her again," and added, "What a loser she is.”

Trump also took aim at Howard Stern for hosting Harris, branding him a “weak guy” for asking soft questions. “I used to think he was good then I dropped him, I dropped him like a dog,” Trump stated. His speeches frequently include insults directed at those who oppose him.
Donald Trump broadens his target list, continuing personal attacks on political opponents
At this particular rally, he not only targeted Whoopi Goldberg and Howard Stern but also went after California Governor Gavin Newsom, Utah Senator Mitt Romney, former president Jimmy Carter, Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, President Joe Biden, and prosecutor Jack Smith.
He devoted considerable time to criticizing Harris, calling her “stupid” and a “dumb person,” a recurring theme in his rhetoric.
After multiple derogatory remarks about Goldberg, Warren, and Harris, Trump mentioned that a staff member suggested he refrain from calling Harris “dumb” as it might negatively affect his image with women voters.
In response, Trump insisted that women “like me anyway,” dismissing the notion that his comments would harm his appeal, labeling such claims as “bulls.” “They make it up,” he asserted.
