Donald Trump Jr. says he is “crazy” CBS paused “The Talk” while investigating a heated exchange between Sharon Osbourne and co-host Sheryl Underwood.
The show announced Monday that it is canceling live shows until Wednesday to watch in the dust, which came after Osbourne defended her longtime girlfriend Piers Morgan, who accused Meghan Markle of lying in her recent story Oprah.
“He’s going crazy!” Don Jr., 43, wrote along with a tweet of the Morgan. “Now, other shows are being aired because someone who knows someone else doesn’t think they are racist, simply because someone else accused them for no reason, simply because they didn’t believe someone else. I understand?!?”
Morgan, 55, wrote on Monday of the controversy, “So @CBS ripped The Talk out of the air while investigating the ‘scandal’ of @MrsSOsbourne’s defense when @sherylunderwood said I was ‘racist’ because I didn’t believe Meghan Markle. The REAL scandal makes me branded a racist because I refused to believe a liar. ”
The drama first took place last week, when Morgan came out of “Good Morning Britain” during a debate with co-host Alex Beresford about Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Soon, Morgan announced that he would leave the show for good.
His longtime friend Osbourne defended him shortly after, tweeting, “I’m with you. Support you. People forget that you are paid for your opinion and that you are only telling the truth. ”
Then, during an episode of “The Talk,” Osbourne said, “I liked everything [Morgan] said? Did I agree with what he said? No, because that’s his opinion. It’s not my opinion. But why, because I have supported a friend and co-worker for many years, everyone goes, if you support him, then you have to be racist because he is racist? ”
Underwood responded that the “implication” of Morgan’s renunciation of Markle was racist rather than the words themselves.
After the debate, Osbourne made a lengthy apology, saying he did not “accept racism, misogyny or aggression.”
In response, Morgan, who is allegedly “prospering because of the riots,” tried to apologize to CBS.
