Former President Donald Trump’s presence at the funeral of slain New York City police officer Jonathan Diller has drawn disapproval from “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg. During the show, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin acknowledged Trump’s attendance and described it as a “brief, good political moment for a Republican.”
He attended a slain NYPD officer’s funeral to juxtapose, you know, what he was framing as Biden hobnobbing with celebrities,” she continued. “Choose what you like there. But, for Republicans it was good imagery.”
Goldberg interjected to ask, “Really?”
“I was so offended because you know who showed up… whether he was asked or not. This is a man who didn’t care what happened to the officers on Jan. 6,” she added.
Watch:
Whoopi thought it was bad optics for Trump to attend the funeral of slain NYPD officer Jonathan Diller and good optics for Biden to attend a fundraiser instead.
