Alyssa Farah Griffin, a former Trump administration official and conservative co-host of ABCâs âThe View,â is suggesting her old boss is showing signs of cognitive decline.
On Thursday, âThe Viewâ co-hosts discussed former President Donald Trumpâs decision to question Vice President Kamala Harrisâ heritage.
âWhat I was struck by wasnât just the blatant racism, the lack of understanding of what it means to be biracial â Iâve said this for a while, he is slowing down. Heâs never been a super eloquent person he did not seem mentally sharp,â Griffin said.
She continued, âHe walked into a room of Black journalists, and it kind of seemed like he was blurting out loud what he says privately with his advisors.â
âLike, he didnât even try to hide or mask the racism, and that, to me, is a sign of decline. He was asked should he take a mental acuity test. I think he should. He does not seem right,â Griffin added.

Co-host Whoopi Goldberg praised Griffin for her comment, âYou were so good how you said that.â
On Wednesday, Trump visited the National Association of Black Journalists conference in Chicago, where he sat down for an interview.
ABC Newsâ Rachel Scott noted Republicans have attacked Harris as a âDEI hireâ and asked if he finds that to be âacceptable languageâ and if he would tell his supporters and members of his party to stop using that line of attack.
âWell, I can say, no, I think maybe itâs a little different. Iâve known her a long time indirectly, not directly very much, and she was always of Indian heritage, and she was only Indian heritage,â Trump responded. âI didnât know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black, and now, she wants to be known as Black. So, I donât know â is she Indian or is she Black?â
Scott interjected to note Harris has âalways identified as a Black personâ and went to a historically Black college. The vice president was also a member of the Congressional Black Caucus while she was in the Senate.
Trump went on, âI respect either one. But she obviously doesnât. Because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she became a Black person.â
