Whoopi Goldberg, host of ABC’s “The View,” recently criticized Trump’s granddaughter, Kai Trump, after her passionate speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. According to Goldberg, the 17-year-old’s speech was merely an attempt to “humanize” Trump. Kai expressed that former President Donald Trump was a “normal grandpa.”
Kai described Trump as a caring grandfather who would reward them and express his pride in their accomplishments. “He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren’t looking, he always wants to know how we’re doing in school. When I made the high honor roll, he printed it out to show his friends how proud he was of me,” Kai said in her speech.
The granddaughter added that Trump often calls her throughout the day to check in. As an avid golfer, the former President also appears to take interest in Kai’s golf game. “He calls me during the middle of the school day to ask how my golf game is going, and tells me all about his. But then I have to remind him that I’m in school and I’ll have to call him back later,” she added.
However, Whoopi Goldberg suggested that Kai’s appearance at the RNC was just an attempt to make Trump more relatable to average people. “I have a lot of faith in the American people. And I don’t know very many men who want to be talked to the way that this man has been talking to men in his audience,” she stated. “I don’t know any women — and I know his grandchild was up on the thing and they’re trying to humanize him and change your idea about who this guy is.”
Goldberg instructed her audience, “Don’t fall for that!” The panelist on the predominantly liberal daytime talk show has long voiced her support for President Biden in the upcoming election amid the enhanced criticism from his party. The American Tribune recently reported on Goldberg’s statements that she would vote for Biden even if he “pooped his pants.”
Goldberg said, “I’m just going to have my two cents because I wasn’t here on the day that y’all talked about it. I don’t care if he’s pooped his pants. I don’t care if he can’t put a sentence together. Show me he can’t do the job, and then I’ll say, okay, maybe it’s time to go.” She added, “Now, he had a bad night the first time that he went out and debated with Kamala Harris, and everybody wanted him to quit that and say, You can’t talk to women like this. Are you doing this wrong? You’re doing that wrong. He came back said, ‘You know what? I got it’ and gave four years. So, yeah, I have poopy days all the time, all that I step in so much poo you can’t even imagine.”
However, President Biden announced on Sunday that he would accept the nomination as the Democratic Party’s candidate. Biden posted on X, “My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”
