On Tuesday, Kelly Osbourne stuck her foot in her mouth while appearing as a guest co-host on "The View."
When discussing Donald Trump's recent controversial remarks about immigrants, Osbourne asked: "If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet Donald Trump?"
Osbourne tried to explain her comments by reasoning that Trump takes advantage of the same people he relies on in his daily life.
But the other co-hosts were not having it. Raven-Symone immediately objected to Osbourne's comments, and Rosie Perez snapped back: "Latinos are not the only people doing that."
