Riley Gaines appeared on “The View” to talk about her experience, thinking Whoopi Goldberg would support her. However, that didn’t happen. When Gaines spoke about losing to a larger biological male, Whoopi accused her of being a bigot wanting attention from Lia Thomas.
Gaines, usually reserved, fiercely defended herself, saying Whoopi didn’t understand women’s struggles. Whoopi, stunned, apologized after a moment. But then, she mocked Gaines for claiming it was hard for her.
Gaines responded, insisting Whoopi didn’t care about women. The exchange was intense, and many admired Gaines for standing up for herself. Overall, it was a memorable moment.
