Karoline Leavitt, a former White House aide who is now a political commentator, completely destroyed Whoopi Goldberg and the notorious talk show The View on live television in a moment of unvarnished candor and incisive wit. Audiences have been laughing and talking about the daring takedown since the exchange, which went viral very fast, began.
Known for her unrestrained political views and fearless commentary, Leavitt was a guest on a live news segment when the conversation turned to The View and its presenters. Shortly after, Leavitt verbally attacked Goldberg, the longtime co-host who frequently stirs up controversy with her views on current affairs.
“Whoopi Goldberg, who can hardly maintain a straight face on her own show, is now giving advice to the nation?” Leavitt asked without hesitation. I would simply watch The View—wait, I already do—if I wanted to hear ignorant viewpoints on live television.
The host found it difficult to control their laughter as the comment sent shockwaves through the studio. Leavitt’s delivery was flawless, striking the ideal mix between scathing criticism and humor. She continued by making fun of the show’s reputation for contentious discussions and its propensity to produce more drama than substance.
As soon as videos of the roast went viral on social media, the Internet was in flames. Leavitt’s admirers were quick to commend her for speaking up and voicing her opinions to the show. However, fans of The View were not impressed, with some describing the comment as “disrespectful” and “unnecessary.”
Leavitt’s detractors couldn’t dispute the moment’s unquestionable humor, though. She made her point with humor and grace, clearly taking the audience by surprise.
