Whoopi Goldberg Issues Fiery Call to Action Against Trump on ‘The View’
On Monday’s episode of The View, co-host Whoopi Goldberg ended the show with a direct, impassioned message for viewers — and it wasn’t subtle. Staring straight into the camera, Goldberg urged Americans to “rise up” and protest against what she described as ongoing constitutional violations by former President Donald Trump.
Her fiery comments came as the panel discussed Trump’s presidential oath and his alleged disregard for it. Goldberg accused the former president of betraying that oath “every single day,” and hinted that if Democrats regain control of the House in 2026, impeachment should be on the table.
“So I don’t know why you don’t remember it,” Goldberg said, referring to Trump’s oath of office. “Because we saw you say it. This isn’t AI you. That was you.”
“If you don’t know the job, why are you doing this?” she continued. “And don’t act like we’re the idiots here. You know the job — and yes, you are violating your oath of office. Or am I crazy?”
Co-host Sunny Hostin echoed the sentiment, reflecting on her time as a federal prosecutor.
“When I took the oath to uphold the Constitution, it felt heavy,” Hostin said. “And the part we’re talking about is the Fifth Amendment — the guarantee of due process. That applies to everyone on U.S. soil, even undocumented immigrants. You can’t just disappear people.”
Hostin emphasized that the Constitution’s protections are not conditional.
“One of the most beautiful things about the Fifth Amendment is that it doesn’t matter how you got here. If you’re on this soil, you are entitled to due process.”
Ana Navarro chimed in with a sharp jab of her own:
“I wonder if when he took the oath, he thought it was to uphold the ‘constipation’ or the ‘confiscation’ of the United States,” she joked. “You’ve got one job, dude. If you can’t do it, then get the hell out.”
Goldberg, who made headlines last week with another anti-Trump sign-off, closed Monday’s show with a call to mobilize:
“Remember, the resistance is real. You’re not alone,” she said.
“People need to march. You need to make noise. If you want to protect your Social Security, if you care about your rights, now is the time to get loud. The only way they’ll understand you won’t put up with this — is if you don’t put up with it.”
Drawing parallels to the civil rights and women’s rights movements, Goldberg declared:
“This is it. It’s on us now.”
