ABC News program The View was scrapping the bottom of the barrel for guest co-hosts willing to come on and fill-in while Alyssa Farah Griffin was on maternity leave. So much so that they apparently had given up trying to get “conservative” and “Republican” women and settled on “life-long progressive” comedian Whitney Cummings. On Wednesday’s show, Cummings, who admitted earlier in the week that all her doctors say she’s literally “crazy,” suggested Trump was sending child soldiers to fight Iran and seemingly suggested that Trump was linked to “child slaves” from Jeffrey Epstein. Cummings’ comments came following a soundbite of President Trump trying to explain that the 14th Amendment was meant to allow the children of newly freed slaves to become citizens. Despite the fact that legal challenges to Trump’s effort to end birthright citizenship had been working their way through the legal system for months, moderator Whoopi Goldberg suggested that the U.S. Supreme Court oral arguments for the case, which were happening as they spoke, were designed to be a distraction from the Epstein files: I think this is all to add to chaos, because he wrote that executive order, everybody pushed back on it and said, you can't do that. That will dismantle so much other stuff. So what is -- Is it just to keep the chaos going to keep us from talking about the Epstein files? It’s worth the reminder that Goldberg was named in the Epstein files regarding a request to borrow the convicted pedophile’s infamous private jet. Cummings followed up by suggesting that when she heard Trump talking about “child slaves” she thought he was talking about the Epstein files, and hinted that Trump was linked to the “child slaves” by citing how many times the files supposedly referred to him. She also falsely claimed he would be going to a hearing about the files: When he mentioned child slaves, I was like, ‘oh, is he talking about the Epstein files’ which he’s mentioned in in over half a million of them and there's still 2 million that need to come out. Also, he’s going to a hearing, Epstein hearing, he’s going to have to, you know, show up at that one.   On The View, "progressive" comedian Whitney Cummins, who admitted yesterday all her doctors have diagnosed her as "crazy," suggests Trump has "child slaves" he got from Epstein and claims he's sending child soldiers to fight Iran. pic.twitter.com/lfws4qrGB6 — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) April 1, 2026   Keeping on the topic of children, Cummings then seemed to suggest that Trump was sending in children to invade Iran: You know, look, you know, to me the first thing I thought is like instead of focusing on these, you know, children that might be born in America, like how about the children who are already born here that you are sending to a senseless war. Let's maybe spend some time and energy on that. Now, she might argue she was talking about the soldiers as being someone’s kids, but every single one of America’s service members were adults. Adults who knew what they signed up for and knew what the possibilities were. Cummings also made the wild claim that when she visited London, random cab drivers tell her to tell American women to stop traveling to the U.K. to give birth: Also, you know, I was just in London. My brother lives there and my nieces and nephew. And every time I got in a cab, the cab drivers went, ‘can you tell your friends in America to stop coming over here pregnant and having babies here,’ because it is officially cheaper to fly to London, give birth in a hospital there, and then fly back than it is to give birth in America. So, how about focus on making it so that women can give birth here and not go broke. It’s also worth noting that earlier in the week, Cummings whined that all her “doctors and psychiatrists” had diagnosed her as “crazy” and seriously suggested it was evidence that they “hate women”: I think there's a lot of ways that um - you know - um, it's more insidious when men get older and still hate women in different ways. You know, whether it's doctors and psychiatrists are finding new ways to dismiss our symptoms to call us crazy, every time I go in to just talk about my feelings, I got diagnosed with ADD and OCD, and I don't have either. You're boring and I'm busy. I don't need to go on a medication because I have stuff to do.   "Progressive" comedian and guest co-host for The View Whitney Cummings claims all men hate women and says she's tired of doctors calling her "crazy."
