Whoopi Goldberg suggested on Thursday that former President Donald Trump was sent to the United States as a sign to show the people where the problems were and what needed to be fixed.

Goldberg made the assessment during a conversation on ABC’s midday talk show “The View,” arguing that in recent years a lot of “weird stuff has been happening,” and she believed that some of those weird things were meant to highlight real problems.

Goldberg began by saying that her real concern was the fact that no one was even talking about finding a way to prevent Trump from continuing his presidential campaign even if he were to be convicted and sentenced to time in prison.

“What really is making me – what really is starting to freak me out – is the idea that we’re not even discussing changing the Constitution to make it say you cannot be in jail and be the president,” she said.

“My fear – I’m a big fan of amendments,” Goldberg continued, as the others voiced their support for a constitutional amendment that would address that particular issue. “I feel like unless we start to plug these holes, this is going to keep biting us in the behind. You know, it really is going to take the people saying hey, listen, because if I can’t vote when I come out of jail, why can you … be president?”

“Amendments are very American,” cohost Sunny Hostin agreed.

Hostin went on to say that she believed the Constitution was a living, breathing document – largely because she claimed the men who wrote it could not have foreseen things like cell phones and AR-15s – and that it certainly made sense to update it in her mind.

“It has to grow with the country,” Goldberg added, saying, “But what has happened is – I know this is really weird but I’ve been having strange thoughts. What I think has happened for us as a nation is over the past ten years, weird stuff has been happening in the country to show us where the problems are.”

“I think the fact that we have this situation now with You-Know-Who is there to tell us, hey, y’all have a problem,” she said.

Elvis Presley‘s granddaughter Riley Keough agreed to pay his wife Priscilla $1.4 million in exchange for control of the family trust, per a new report.

The 34-year-old Keough has been feuding with her grandmother following the unexpected death of Elvis’ daughter Lisa Marie in January. Lisa Marie suffered multiple cardiac events before passing away at the age of 54.

Keough and Priscilla reached a deal in May, which was originally kept secret, but People obtained a copy of a document filed Monday explaining that Elvis’s granddaughter paid Priscilla $1 million in exchange for control of Lisa Marie’s multi-million dollar estate. Keough also paid $400,000 for her grandmother’s legal fees.

“In settling the claims pending in Priscilla’s Petition, the parties are saving significant legal fees by avoiding litigation, and they are likewise avoiding the spectacle of intra-family litigation that would have been inimical to Lisa’s wishes and not in the best interests of the family,” Keough’s lawyer Justin Gold wrote in part.

Priscilla confirmed in a statement to the New York Post that she never sued Keough.

“My family has resolved all confusion as it relates to our plea to the court and request for document interpretation after my daughter Lisa Marie’s untimely passing,” she told the outlet. “Although the media identified such a plea as a lawsuit, I want to make clear that there was never any lawsuit filed against my beloved granddaughter.”

“As a family, we are pleased that we resolved this together. My family and I hope that everyone will grant us the privacy we have needed to properly grieve Lisa Marie and spend personal time together,” Priscilla continued. “We love and appreciate all of you and the Presley family is stronger than ever.”

A source told People that Keough “doesn’t want any drama with her grandmother” and was happy to reach a mutually agreeable conclusion. Priscilla previously filed a challenge to her daughter’s will just two weeks after her death. 

“Riley is relieved to have settled the dispute over her mom’s estate,” the source added.

“She wants to focus on making memories with her own daughter now. This is her priority,” the insider said of Keough’s future plans. She shares a young daughter with her Australian stuntman husband Ben Smith-Petersen.
