Whoopi Goldberg Brings Crazy View Segment With Jeanine Pirro to a Crashing Halt: ‘Say Goodbye! I’m Done!

Rachel Dicker of Mediaite wrote:

Judge Jeanine Pirro was on The View Thursday to promote her book Liars, Leakers and Liberals, and, predictably enough, there was some trouble.

“I’m not an ideologue,” Pirro explained to the table. “I have been in the crime business for over three decades. I think I said that before. I know a con when I see it.”

At this, the audience laughed, though Pirro didn’t seem to be in on the joke.

“You just said you’re not an ideologue. Do you think Donald Trump embraces and embodies conservative ideology?” Ana Navarro asked. “He used to have a different position on pro choice. He is imposing tariffs. He’s against globalism. Do you think he’s an ideologue that is faithful to conservative policies?”

“I’m not here to talk about what Donald Trump is and isn’t,” Pirro protested, and over crosstalk, Whoopi Goldberg insisted that Pirro answer the question.

“You’re suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Pirro told her over chatter.

“Listen, I don’t have Trump Derangement,” Whoopi said testily. “Let me tell you what I have. I’m tired of people starting a conversation with Mexicans are liars and rapists.”

“Listen, I’m 62 years old. There have been a lot of people in office that I didn’t agree with,” she continued. “But I have never, ever seen anything like this. I have never seen anybody whip up such hate. I have never seen anybody be so dismissive.

“What I suffer from is the inability to figure out how to fix this,” she added. “That’s my issue.”

“Your opening statement, how horrible it is that Donald Trump is talking about all of these people,” Pirro said. “You know what’s horrible? When people who shouldn’t be here end up murdering the children of American citizens.”

That’s when Whoopi really lost it.

“What is horrible is when the President of the United States whips up people to beat the hell out of people! Say goodbye! I’m done!”

And the crowd went wild.

Jeanine Pirro claims an ugly scuffle between her and Whoopi Goldberg continued after The View cameras turned off Thursday.

The Fox News host, who was on the daytime talk show to promote her new book, Liars, Leakers and Liberals, accused the liberal Goldberg of having “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

"Listen, I don't have Trump derangement [syndrome]. Let me tell you what I have. I'm tired of people starting a conversation with 'Mexicans are liars and rapists,’” Goldberg responded.

"Listen, I’m 62 years old,” The View co-host continued. “There have been a lot of people in office that I didn't agree with. But I have never, ever seen anything like this. I have never seen anybody whip up such hate. I have never seen anybody be so dismissive. And clearly you don’t watch this show so you don’t know that I don’t suffer from that. What I suffer from is the inability to know how to fix this.”

Pirro, in response, said that what’s horrible is “when people who shouldn't be here end up murdering the children of American citizens,” seemingly referring again to President Trump’s comments about immigrants.

"What is horrible is when the president of the United States whips up people to beat the hell out of people," Goldberg retorted. “Say goodbye. I’m done.”

When The View returned from commercial break, Goldberg apologized for losing her cool, but said she doesn’t like “being accused of being hysterical.”

But Pirro claims that’s not where their fight ended: instead, she said, Goldberg continued yelling at her after the segment ended.

“It was an attack on Donald Trump and then on me. I sat there as Whoopi Goldberg pontificated about how horrible Donald Trump was. At one point, I said, ‘you know, I’m here to talk about the book.’ And then she went ballistic. She ended the segment. She said, ‘that’s it, I’m done,” Pirro told Sean Hannity on his radio show Thursday after The View.

“When I went off the stage, Sean, I was walking down stairs, and I said something like ‘Whoopi I’ve fought for victims all my life.’ And she came at me and she said ‘F you’ in my face, literally spitting at me. ‘F you, get the F out of this building!’ And I said to her ‘did you just say that?’ And she said ‘that’s what I just said, get the F out of this building!.' And she was screaming at me and I’m walking out of the building like a dog who was just kicked off. So forget about what she did to me on set, which was horrific in itself but the treatment by Whoopi Goldberg is typical of what is going on in this country. The left, they invite you on to talk, they don’t let you talk, they throw you off the show and then they throw you out of the building. Once one of them does it, the rest are going to start doing it.”

A source, however, told the Daily News that Pirro was “ready for a fight” when she got to the studio Thursday. The judge was unhappy that CNN political commentator Ana Navarro, a professional rival, was on the show as well and demanded that Navarro not appear.

The segments went on as planned, with both Pirro and Navarro, until the on-camera shouting match, at which point Goldberg cut to commercial about 30 seconds early.

The source told The News that Pirro said “those c--ksuckers” as she removed her mic and walked off stage, saying that the segment was “exactly what she thought this was going to be.” As she walked backstage, Pirro pointed again at Goldberg and the two began fighting again.

An executive producer for Goldberg called Pirro after the show, the source told The News, but she did not answer or call back.
