“Not Presidential”: Goldberg Sparks Controversy Over Trump’s UN Address

What started as a routine critique quickly exploded into controversy when The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg called for invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office.

Goldberg’s remarks came after Trump’s contentious speech at the United Nations General Assembly, which she said damaged America’s credibility with global leaders. She argued that his tone was divisive and diminished the nation’s standing.

“He had a chance to make an impact, but he blew it,” Goldberg said on air, adding that the world had lost respect for the U.S. under Trump’s leadership.

Pushing further, she suggested the 25th Amendment as a possible solution, emphasizing that her criticism would be the same if any president—Democrat or Republican—had delivered such a speech.

Co-host Sunny Hostin supported Goldberg’s assessment, accusing Trump of exaggerating his achievements and falsely claiming to have resolved multiple international conflicts to boost his image.

Reactions online were immediate and polarized. Trump supporters slammed Goldberg’s comments as partisan and accused her of misusing constitutional principles. Others defended her, saying the president’s performance justified serious concern.

Trump’s UN speech, marked by technical issues and a combative tone, deepened divisions. His critiques of open borders and the UN’s role drew both applause and ridicule. Goldberg’s remarks have since intensified the debate over political discourse, media influence, and the limits of presidential accountability in a sharply divided nation.
