Judge Jeanine Pirro sparked a yelling match Thursday with “The View” host Whoopi Goldberg with a comment about “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
Ms. Pirro was on TV show to discuss her new book “Liars, Leakers and Liberals,” when she pointed at Ms. Goldberg to suggest she had “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
The phrase has been used by President Trump and other conservatives to describe what they understand to be liberal hysteria over the president.
“I don’t have Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Ms. Goldberg said, “I’m tired of people starting conversations with Mexicans are liars and rapists. There have been a lot of people in office I didn’t agree with. I have never, ever seen anything like this.”
Instead of answering the next question, Ms. Pirro rebutted Ms. Goldberg’s speech, which ramped up into a shouting match between the two.
“It’s horrible when people who shouldn’t be here end up murdering the children of American citizens,” Ms. Pirro said, as she rose out of her chair, “It’s horrible we’re funding sanctuary cities.”
“You know what’s horrible? When the president of the United States whips up people to beat the hell out of people. Say goodbye!” Ms. Goldberg said over her.
Ms. Goldberg immediately ended the interview with Ms. Pirro after the exchange.
Ms. Pirro took to Twitter Thursday night to share a clip of the heated exchange, saying, “This is an example of how the left is intolerant and this is why I wrote my book.”
