‘The View’: Whoopi Goldberg Genuinely Impressed by Alyssa Farah Griffin Dig Comparing Trump to MLK
"Well done!" the ABC moderator praises The post ‘The View’: Whoopi Goldberg Genuinely Impressed by Alyssa Farah Griffin Dig Comparing Trump to MLK appeared first on TheWrap .
On Tuesday morning, the co-host of "The View," Whoopi Goldberg, was genuinely impressed by a comment made by Alyssa Farah Griffin during the show's first Hot Topics discussion. Griffin had been comparing President Trump to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. during the segment. The discussion centered around Trump's closing remarks to midterm voters at a rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
During his speech, the president praised the renovation work done on the pool and suggested renaming it after himself. In response, Griffin remarked, "Like, just the juxtaposition of being in front of the Lincoln Memorial – 'I Have a Dream,' he gave us 'I cleaned the pool.'" Whoopi Goldberg applauded Griffin's quip, calling it "well done," before clarifying her surprise at Trump's focus on the pool renovation in his final message before the midterms.
"I just want to make sure that I understand. Yesterday was the last time he should have been making, you know, a push for the candidates," Goldberg remarked. "And instead, he was talking about the pool? That he messed up?"
