“There is a definite anti-White feeling in the country right now,”’ she continued, "Nobody in your family was hung. Nobody in your family was chased because of the color of their skin," Goldberg added, according to Daily Mail.
Whoopi Goldberg questioned if Donald Trump is the 'future'
Her fellow co-hosts discussed Trump’s comments from the Time magazine interview which explored how he would handle his second term, if re-elected.
"How dare you? There’s no anti-White issue here. You are perpetrating anti-humanist issues here," Goldberg said.
She then posed the question, "So the question is, is he the future? Is he the future? Well, I gotta ask! You know, that’s the gig, they pay me."
Back in January, Goldberg said that a Trump victory in 2024 could lead to the targeting of journalists and the LGBTQ+ community.
Noting the importance of supporting Biden, she cautioned against enabling a ‘dictator.’
“I’m going to put you people away. I’m going to take all the journalists, I’m going to take all the gay folks, and I’ll move you all around and disappear you,” she said at the time.
Donald Trump's view on the current state of the country under Joe Biden
Trump, in the interview with Time, further revealed that besides the anti-White feelings in the country, the Biden administration was "against Catholics" and "against a lot of different people."
“I don’t think it would be a very tough thing to address, frankly,” he said, suggesting how he will correct it if he is once again elected to power as the country's president.
"But I think the laws are very unfair right now. And education is being very unfair, and it’s being stifled," Trump told the publication.
"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," he added further.
