Whoopi Goldberg, 69, says she’s having a “hard time” financially and can’t afford to step away from The View

If she could, Whoopi Goldberg would leave The View and retire happily.

But the Sister Act star, who turns 69 today, admitted that, like most Americans, she can’t afford it.

“If I had all the money in the world, I wouldn’t be here, okay? “So I’m a working person, you know?” she told the audience on the Nov. 12 episode of the CBS talk show.

Goldberg’s final salary is currently unknown, but was reported to be between $5 million and $6 million in 2016.

“I appreciate that people are having a hard time. Me too. “I work for a living,” Goldberg said after a discussion about Donald Trump’s second presidency and all the working-class Americans who inexplicably voted for him.

She explained: “My child has to feed his family.” My great-granddaughter has to feed her family. I know it’s tough out there.’

“We talk to people all the time who say, ‘That’s what bothers me.’ But what bothers everyone shouldn’t be what puts 85% of other people at risk. “I think that’s what we’re saying,” she explained.

The comments came after grocers expressed anger at the ghost store after it called them “pigs” over rising food prices.

“The people who own the food are pigs,” she said as she blamed them for rising supermarket prices on last Thursday’s show.

“Their wallets are bad, not because the Bidens have done anything.” Not because the economy is bad. “Their grocery bills are what they are because the people who own the groceries are pigs,” Goldberg said.

Meanwhile, The Color Purple actress is sticking to her promise to never mention Trump’s name, which has been her motto since his election in 2016.

After his win last week, Goldberg declared, “That’s not going to change.”

As Goldberg discussed the election results with her co-hosts, she expressed disappointment that “people didn’t come out” to vote for Kamala Harris.

In 2018, Goldberg admitted that she never says Trump’s name, telling CNN’s The Ax Files that she “can’t stand” saying it or calling him “president.”

But her co-host Sunny Hostin, 56, took her frustration a step further and blamed white women and Latino men.

‘I find [Trump’s victory] “This had nothing to do with politics, I think this was a referendum on cultural resentment in this country,” Hostin said.

“Black women tried again last night to save this country…what we don’t have are white women who voted about 52 percent for Donald Trump – uneducated white women, as far as I know.”

She added: “There are actually Latino men who vote for him more.”

She then asked ABC political news director Rick Klein: “Why do you think uneducated white women voted against their reproductive health freedoms, and why do you think Latino men voted for someone who has a majority of his community.” will be deported?”
