    “She’s Pure Trash”: Whoopi Hammered after She Mocks Elon’s Son, His Name [WATCH]

    In an absolutely horrific recent broadcast of ABC’s “The View,” co-host Whoopi Goldberg launched into a very poor taste attack on the son of Elon Musk. She and the other co-hosts mainly mocked the young boy over his unusual name, X Æ A-XII, joking about him and it while trying to go on the offensive against his father. Whoopi has since been obliterated online over her comments.

    Elon, as background, used to be a darling of the left given the “green” nature of his electric vehicle company, Tesla, and his SolarCity solar panel business. However, since he started supporting Trump and enabling free speech on X (formerly Twitter), they have launched repeated, rabid attacks against him and some members of his family, now including his 4-year-old son.

    In any case. Goldberg, beginning the portion of the segment in which the co-hosts attacked “Lil X,” said, “Yeah, so yesterday Elon Musk took his son X to a press conference —” Cutting her off at that point, her co-host Joy Behar chimed in and asked, “X?” Shaking her head as Behar spoke, Whoopi directed a snide remark at the boy over his name, saying, “I did not name the child.”

    Behar, asking again about the boy’s name, asked, “That’s the kid’s name?” Whoopie Goldberg fired back by saying, jokingly, given her own name change, “And I don’t want to hear any more mess about our names. Okay?” Continuing, she then said, “Anyhoo, he took little X —” Behar, mocking the boy and his name, said, “And little Instagram.”

    Then, when Sarah Haines chimed in to say that Elon doesn’t own Instagram, Whoopi kept going and attacked Elon for bringing his son with him to the event, saying, “He doesn’t own Instagram, he just took Lil X with him. To a press conference in the Oval Office to defend himself against critics who say he should not have the power to gut the federal agency.”



    It was for that series of comments that Whoopi, who broached and led the attack on “Lil X,” faced fire on X. One commenter on the matter on X, for example, posted the clip of Whoopi mocking the young boy and said, “Whoopi Goldberg is making fun of Elon’s sons [sic] name. She’s pure trash.”

    Commenters on the post largely agreed, leaving comments like, “Whoopi should be ashamed. It’s very low to make fun of a little boy,” “If she can mock his name then I guess we can mock her hair right?,” and “Can’t win the fight on your own. Switch to insults. Got it. Whoopi, you are trash, as is your TV show.” Watch the segment here:

    Also chiming in, the X commentary account “Clown World” hammered Whoopi for her comments about Elon’s son, saying, “Whoopi Goldberg mocking Elon’s son’s name. The same people who cry about ‘bullying’ have no problem doing it themselves.” Agreeing, a commenter said, “Whoopi Goldberg, the washed-up, bitter elitist, mocking a child’s name while pretending to be a champion of kindness? Hypocrisy at its finest. The View is just a daytime hate mob.”
