Whoopi Goldberg Boots Jeanine Pirro from The View: Watch!
As Donald Trump continues kissing Vladimir Putin"s ass before the international community, some of his erstwhile defenders have gone silent.
Some of his most ardent defenders, however, are speaking louder than ever. Fox News host Jeanine Pirro is certainly no exception.
In an appearance on The View, she accused Whoopi Goldberg of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome" and got booted from the table.
Jeanine Pirro has seemingly staked her entire career on Donald Trump being, not only not a traitor and Russian asset, but a good President.
Despite what many consider to be overwhelming evidence to the contrary, she argues before The View hosts that the investigation into Russian espionage and cyber crimes during the 2016 election season was made in bad faith.
Pirro, who ran against Hillary Clinton for Senate seat before dropping out to accept a nomination for New York Attorney General (a race which she lost), wrote a book, alleging a massive conspiracy against Trump.
Among other things, she seems to suggest that the Deep State, which the United States does not have, not only exists, but is working to undermine the President.
Things became heated when Pirro suggested that any crimes committed by undocumented immigrants justified the Trump Administration"s human rights violations against immigrants — including lawful asylum seekers.
A contentious debate became more heated when Pirro accused Whoopi of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome."
"I"m tired," Whoopi explains. "Of people starting conversations with "Mexicans are liars and rapists.""
We"ve seen so many interviews in which pleasant-faced people look into the camera and repeat those same racist, xenophobic lies.
"I"m tired of starting a conversation about this country — listen, I"m 62 years old," Whoopi says, changing gears.
"There have been a lot of people in office that I didn"t agree with," Whoopi says. "But I have never, ever seen anything like this."
Many people, including those who have lived much longer than Whoopi, struggle to recall a President whose behavior mirrored Donald Trump"s.
"I"ve never seen anybody whip up such hate. I"ve never seen anybody be so dismissive," Whoopi says.
Taking issue with the Trump Derangement Syndrome remark, Whoopi says: "And clearly you don"t watch this show. You don"t know that I suffer from that."
Whoopi explains that "what I suffer from is the inability to figure out how to fix this. That"s my issue."
The unpleasantness continues, and Whoopi says: "Say goodbye, goodbye. I"m done"
After the break, Pirro is nowhere in sight.
Whoopi Goldberg then addresses the audience, to explain why she was so passionate.
"So you saw me do something that I very rarely do, I very rarely lose my cool and I"m not proud of it," Whoopi says. "I don"t like it."
No one likes losing their cool. But it is very understandable that such an important issue makes people feel passionate.
"But I also don"t like being accused of being hysterical because that"s one of the things I try not to be on this show."
It is worth noting that Jeanine Pirro was seated beside longtime Republican Ana Navarro, who has become one of Donald Trump"s fiercest critics.
There"s a very special phenomenon when people say and do horrible things and then act as if those who are upset about them are being unreasonable.
When they do this, they portray themselves as the reasonable ones because they remained calm, suggesting that the other is unbalanced.
It is important for us to remember as we hear these arguments that it is normal — and even healthy — to become impassioned when speaking about human rights abuses, bigotry, and treason.
That"s not "Trump Derangement Syndrome." There"s no such thing.
Besides, Jeanine Pirro grew hot under the collar herself.

Joy Behar vs. Whoopi Goldberg: It"s War on The View!
DING! DING! DING!
According to a new report, it is totally on between the longest tenured members of The View.
In one corner is not especially funny comedian Joy Behar; in the other corner is lead panelist Whoopi Goldberg.
Will this alleged feud lead to yet another cast shakeup for the morning talk show?
Those who tune in to see Behar, Goldberg and company chat about Hot Topics on a daily basis are aware that Joy and Whoopi get along when the cameras are rolling.
There’s not any noticeable tension between the stars.
Backstage, however, “it’s a different matter,” an insider tells Radar Online, adding of Behar and Goldberg:
“They’re mortal enemies – and Joy wants to be the queen bee!”
We’re not sure anyone actually talks that way, so we’re not sure if we really believe this claim.
But it makes for a fun rumor, doesn’t it?
Goldberg signed a one-year deal to stick around The View in July.
It was the rare occurrence of a cast member actually NOT being let go, as the program has become more well known at this point for its rotating cast of stars than anything the women actually discuss.
However, the 60-year old actress has allegedly told friends that she’s fed up with the show and that she remains angry over Behar leading in 2013…
… only to return a few months later.
“Whoopi made it clear she wasn’t happy about Joy’s ‘grandstanding’ when she made a big deal about leaving,” the source tells Radar.
“Especially when Joy started guest-hosting almost right away … before returning for good.”
In the past, there had been talk that Goldberg wasn’t happy with Rosie O’Donnell during her two stints as a View panelist.
Goldberg allegedly blamed Rosie back then for the show’s declining ratings.
Behar, meanwhile, is now the only original host left on The View. She just signed a three-year deal worth a reported $ 2.5 million.
The two are joined on the series these days by Paula Faris, Candace Cameron Bure, Sara Haines, Raven-Symone, Jedediah Bila and Sunny Hostin.
We’ve grown pretty sick of The View over the years, along with this sort of backstage drama.
But we’ve also had some ideas of just who fit re-energize the program.
Here’s a rundown of potential View panelists who we’d love to see join the cast:
As for this latest drama, choose a side:
Are you on Team Whoopi or Team Joy?

Whoopi Goldberg Signs New Deal on The View
BREAKING NEWS:
Someone is actually sticking around The View.
Following months of contract negotiations and public speculation, Whoopi Goldberg has announced via Twitter that she will return for the show’s 20th season.
“Ok NOW it’s official, I have re-upped for 1 year returning to @TheView 4 the 2016/2017 season,” Whoopi wrote earlier today, adding:
“Will continue 2 annoy some, delight others.”
At least she knows her audience and her standing with them, right?
Goldberg, of course, has been one of the few steady cast members on The View over the past several years.
That show changes panelists more often than Kim Kardashian changes filters on her Instagram account. (Or some better metaphor.)
As it currently stands, Joy Behar and Paula Farisare already committed next season, while regular contributor Sara Haines is in talks to join the round table.
There’s no word yet on the statuses of Raven-Symoné or Candace Cameron-Bure, however.
Just last month, meanwhile, it was announced that Michelle Collins would be leaving the program.
She became the latest series casualty in the process. Just consider:
Rosie O’Donnell has come and gone twice over the last few years.
Then there was Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy, neither of whom lasted very long.
But they at least stuck around longer than Rosie Perez, who was on the show for approximately 129 minutes.
Are you glad Goldberg is staying? Are you upset? Could you not care any less?
And can you imagine the ratings increase if one of the following stars snagged a seat at The View table?

Whoopi Goldberg: "I"m an American. I"m Not an African-American."
Whoopi Goldberg has renounced the label of “African American.” Instead, she prefers simply “American.”
The star made the proclamation on The View this week, after co-host Joy Behar predicted many Americans would leave the country if Donald Trump became president.
“You know what, uh-uh! This is my country,” said Goldberg. “My mother, my grandmother, my great-grand folks, we busted ass to be here. I’m sorry. I’m an American. I’m not an African-American, I’m not a chick American, I’m an American!”
Raven-Symone quickly chimed in with, “I’m an American. I’ve been here too long to not just hold American.”
In fact, Goldberg may have gotten the idea from her young co-host. In 2014, Raven-Symone expressed nearly the exact same sentiment as Goldberg’s during an interview with Oprah Winfrey, saying, “I’m tired of being labeled. I’m an American. I’m not an African American; I’m an American.”
Naturally, the Twittersphere had something to say. While some agreed whole-heartedly with the, um, American co-hosts, others accused the two of abandoning their heritage.
Goldberg may need to do a little PR cleanup after her comments, but she can’t be surprised at the backlash.
Raven-Symone had also come under fire from the black community after she made her statements two years ago. She explained that her words were taken the wrong way, and that she wasn’t trying to deny her ethnicity, just a term she didn’t care for.
“I never said I wasn’t black. I said I wasn’t African American and to me, that’s a difference.”
