Whoopi Goldberg apologises after using slur in reference to Donald Trump
Whoopi Goldberg has apologised after using a slur to describe Donald Trump.
She used the dated term gy***d, a slur used against people of Romani heritage, who were often called gy****s.
The 67-year-old apologised for using the pejorative word, saying she "should have thought a little longer" before saying it.
This video message was shared by The View shortly after the episode in question.
"I should’ve said ‘cheated’, and I used another word, and I’m really really sorry," she said.
