Whoopi Goldberg strongly criticised Donald Trump during a heated discussion on The View after he shared a string of strange AI-generated images online, which quickly sparked backlash and confusion. The panel reacted to several posts the president reportedly shared over the weekend, including digitally created images showing him firing missiles at Earth from space, posing with an alien, and targeting Democrats in exaggerated scenarios.
Whoopi Goldberg slams Donald Trump over AI posts: ‘They don’t have time for this b-‘
Whoopi Goldberg made it clear she found the posts ridiculous. Opening the segment, Goldberg expressed disbelief that Donald Trump was spending time posting surreal AI content while major issues continue unfolding across the country and around the world. “You know, with everything happening around this country, and around the world right now, you know who finds time to post bizarre stuff?”
Goldberg then referenced the stream of AI-generated images that had flooded social media. “He did a bizarre dump of AI-generated posts targeting Democrats, as well as a fake image of him walking with an alien and one where he’s firing missiles at the Earth from outer space.” At one point, the Oscar-winning actress appeared completely exasperated by the situation. “You can’t convince me there’s nothing wrong.”
Goldberg shifted focus away from Trump’s posts and toward the everyday problems facing Americans. The longtime moderator argued that most people are too overwhelmed with real-life responsibilities to care about bizarre online content from politicians. “There are people trying to get to their jobs,” she said passionately. “There are people in this country trying to make sense of how they can survive on a daily basis.”
As her frustration grew, Goldberg explained how disconnected the AI posts felt from the real problems many Americans face. “They don’t have time for any of this bull—,” she said before stopping herself mid-word. Goldberg then urged viewers to focus on the broader political picture. “They only have time to make sure they can get through the day with their family safely.”
