During Monday’s episode of The View, co-host Whoopi Goldberg made an offhand–and frankly rather inoffensive–joke about President Donald Trump using an autopen. On the heels of the Trump administration wanting to null and void former President Joe Biden’s pardons because he used an autopen, it is actually the perfect place to slot in a joke.
However, co-host Sunny Hostin, who is the show’s legal expert, later passed Goldberg a note. It asked her to clarify a statement she made earlier in the show, which was the autopen joke. Furious, Goldberg ripped the note up on air.
