It is fairly obvious that the hosts of The View are not typically fond of President Trump, many are debating whether this time the women went too far. This once again has stirred speculation about the inappropriate language used by Hollywood celebrities. I mean c'mon, has Whoopi learned nothing from Madonna's questionable comments?
