Whoopi Goldberg Declares She Will Make Co-Host Alyssa Farah Griffin Pay for Calling Her ‘Useless’.
Whoopi Goldberg and Alyssa Farah Griffin Clash Over Political Debate
Whoopi Goldberg and her The View co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin got into a heated discussion over how to engage with voters who supported Donald Trump in the most recent presidential election.
The Argument Over Political Dialogue
The disagreement unfolded when Alyssa, a 35-year-old political commentator and former White House communications director under Trump, suggested that Democrats need to be open to conversations with Trump supporters and look for common ground. Though she backed Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, she acknowledged that she agreed with some of Trump’s policies, including aspects of Project 2025.

Project 2025, an initiative aimed at restructuring the federal government and broadening executive power, has been widely debated. Alyssa stated on The View, “Democrats have to be willing to go to uncomfortable spaces.”
However, Whoopi, 69, countered that the issue goes beyond party lines. Alyssa maintained that conversation is necessary for progress, explaining, “You have to engage with people who think differently to build coalitions.” She added that while she supports certain policies, she strongly opposes others that she believes are reckless or dangerous.
Whoopi Goldberg Stands Her Ground
Whoopi was unconvinced, arguing, “It’s hard to talk to people who support leaders that don’t acknowledge your value in this country.” Alyssa pushed back, saying, “But supporting specific policies isn’t the same as supporting the person.”
Whoopi responded passionately, “No, no! But when you support that person, it enables…” before Alyssa interjected, repeating, “But I don’t support that person.”
Later in the conversation, Whoopi acknowledged Alyssa’s point but remained skeptical about the inclusivity of Project 2025. “I didn’t see anything in it that spoke to us as a nation,” she said. “It felt like it was designed for a very specific group, and that really bothered me. But I do agree we need to keep talking to each other—that’s important.”
