“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg indicated that she believed a bakery may
have refused to make a treat for her birthday due to differing political
opinions.

The 69-year-old comedian shared her thoughts during Wednesday’s episode of
the daytime talk show. When Goldberg presented the other panelists with one
of her favorite desserts, Charlotte Russe, she mentioned having a hard time
getting the creamy sponge cake dessert from a Staten Island bakery, also
explaining that she had asked for this dessert because it was one of her
mother’s favorites.

“Now, I should tell you, Charlotte Russe has no political leanings, and the
place that made these refused to make them for me,” Goldberg said, eliciting
a gasp from the audience.

Fellow panelist Sunny Hostin replied, “Oh, really?” while Sara Haines spit
out the piece she had been eating.

“They said that their ovens had gone down, all kinds of stuff, but folks went
and got them anyway,” Goldberg continued, “which is why I’m not telling you
who made them.”

She added that the reason for refusing service “can’t be because I’m a woman”
and then speculated that “perhaps they did not like my politics.”

“But that’s okay,” Goldberg went on, “because you know what? Listen, this is
my mother’s celebration. Pick these up and celebrate with me and my mom.
Thank you everyone for celebrating my birthday today.”

The actress refused to name the bakery, but Entertainment Weekly reported the
desserts came from Holtermann’s Baker on Staten Island. The owner, Jill
Holtermann, told the outlet that her refusing the order had nothing to do
with “political affiliations.” She said the bakery was “having trouble with
[the] boilers.”

Holtermann said Goldberg had initially asked for the baked treats for a
November 6 talk show appearance and her birthday broadcast on Wednesday. The
owner said she turned down the orders because she “didn’t want to make a
commitment that I can’t carry through.”

“I said to Whoopi, ‘I can’t do it right now,'” she told the outlet. “We have
so many things going on with my boiler,’ because the building is from 1930,
so, when she called me, I had no idea [if we could] be baking everything.”

The owner confirmed that a woman came into the bakery on the morning of
November 13 and picked up 50 Charlotte Russe desserts, which she had been
able to make despite the issues the bakery was experiencing.

THE VIEW co-host Whoopi Goldberg indicated that she believed a bakery may
have refused to make a treat for her birthday due to differing political
opinions.
Well, there are plenty of businesses over the last half-decade or so that have
refused to serve people in red ballcaps, and y'all argued that was perfectly
legal and appropriate. Just like everything else, you never expected to have
your own tactics turned against you, you shrieking wildebeest.

This is the world Democrats have made and now they're surprised they have to
live in it.

So basically another evidence-free accusation from this lumbering whale, just

And she wonders why people don't want to have anything to do with her.

Isn't that just the law. Politics aside any business has the right to
refuse to serve someone for any non-protected reason. That said it's
also okay for anyone, including Goldberg, to complain if a business
refuses them service.

It worked. It's got you and me and many others talking about which
will help drive viewer ship. Which is the end goal for anyone in
Goldberg's position.

Yet apparently enough keep watching that she is still on TV.

Thanks to the "Politically Correctness" nonsense, there's no such
things as a "non-protected reason" these days. :-\

Basically Goldberg complained, the bakery responded ... it's up to the
individual person which side they want to believe, but given Goldberg's
track history of weirdo-ness, any sane people would likely go with the
bakery.

On the other hand, Staten Island is in a race with The Villages
of Florida to see who can be the reddest red neck...

I am shocked she didn't claim they said "This is MAGA Country, bitch!" when she
left.

“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg indicated that she believed a bakery may
have refused to make a treat for her birthday due to differing political
opinions.
The 69-year-old comedian shared her thoughts during Wednesday’s episode of
the daytime talk show. When Goldberg presented the other panelists with one
of her favorite desserts, Charlotte Russe, she mentioned having a hard time
getting the creamy sponge cake dessert from a Staten Island bakery, also
explaining that she had asked for this dessert because it was one of her
mother’s favorites.
“Now, I should tell you, Charlotte Russe has no political leanings, and the
place that made these refused to make them for me,” Goldberg said, eliciting
a gasp from the audience.
Fellow panelist Sunny Hostin replied, “Oh, really?” while Sara Haines spit
out the piece she had been eating.
“They said that their ovens had gone down, all kinds of stuff, but folks went
and got them anyway,” Goldberg continued, “which is why I’m not telling you
who made them.”
She added that the reason for refusing service “can’t be because I’m a woman”
and then speculated that “perhaps they did not like my politics.”
“But that’s okay,” Goldberg went on, “because you know what? Listen, this is
