Amazing to see how quick someone can switch from saying something horrible to walking it back, and then apologizing for the lawsuit.
As RedState has been covering, that nexus of leftist reason known as “The View” has spent all week walking back comments that were made on Monday about Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit.
A group of Nazis walked up to the Tampa gathering, Florida building in the clear intent of being seen by all who passed, including the press. Students and attendees went out to engage and debate with them, making it clear that they aren’t welcome and, moreover, that their ideology has been and always will be rejected.
I ought to know, because I was among those who attended. Needless to say, I’m not entirely convinced they’re real Nazis as they had too many earmarks of the classic leftist plant. Dressing in black bloc with still-creased DeSantis flags doesn’t exactly scream “legit.”

Despite it being very clear that the Nazis were not welcomed by attendees of TPUSA’s event, the hostesses of “The View” made it their mission to link the two together, with Whoopi Goldberg in particular claiming that the Nazis were welcomed in and embraced.
It was a claim that TPUSA didn’t take lightly, and it openly began considering legal action against “The View.” This triggered an immediate retreat by “The View” who made a couple of walkbacks and apologies.

But for some reason, Goldberg held out and didn’t really apologize herself, that is until Thursday.
According to Mediaite, Thursday’s show finally saw Goldberg bend the knee and be forced to make an apology about the gross claim that the students and the Nazis were one and the same.
“In Monday’s conversation about Turning Point USA, I put the young people at the conference in the same category as the protesters outside, and I don’t like it when people make assumptions about me and it’s not any better when I make assumptions about other people, which I did,” said Goldberg. “So my bad. I’m sorry.”

While apologies are all well and good, it’s pretty clear that Goldberg only said it because of the legal action being threatened by TPUSA. Had it never happened, they likely wouldn’t have mentioned it again and allowed the accusation that TPUSA is in league with Nazis to hang in the air for its audience and the internet in general.
If Goldberg and the women of “The View” are truly sorry, then they’ll likely never make outrageous claims about right-leaning people ever again, but they will continue to do so because that’s more or less the basis of their entire show.
