Whoopi Goldberg has recently responded to the arrest of former president Donald Trump on April 4.

According to Independent, Trump was pleaded “not guilty” to 34 counts against him at a Lower Manhattan courthouse.

Reflecting on the court’s decision, Goldberg asked The View co-hosts, “How are you feeling about a historic day? You know, it’s sad, but I'm glad something’s happening.”

Goldberg’s co-host Joy Behar responded, “It’s not sad, what’s sad?”

“Well, I’m sad that, in that [it is] an American president,” commented the 67-year-old.

She also remarked, “It’s the first time in any of our lifetimes, and I don’t think any of us could have really imagined this.”

One of the show’s co-hosts stated that they “imagined” it, however, Goldberg added, “With him, no, but I mean with other presidents.”

Last month, Goldberg sent out an apology to Trump over using a dated slur in reference to Trump.

“You know when you’re a certain age, you use words that you know from when you’re a kid or you remember saying and that’s what I did today. And I shouldn’t have,” confessed Goldberg
