‘The View’ Turns on AOC, Accuses Rep of ‘Dismissing’ Older People

Though “The View” usually presents a safe space for people to wish violence against the president or insult American heroes, Wednesday’s guest found herself under fire from someone on the same side.

Whoopi Goldberg, co-host of the liberal ABC talk show, turned on leftist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, accusing her of ageism in light of past comments made by the New York Democrat and one of her advisers.

The topic came up in light of previous discussions about division within the Democratic Party on the show.

“You know, I was very happy when you were elected because I thought it was a great step in a good direction,” Goldberg told the freshman congresswoman.

“And then, you lost me because it felt like you were saying to people like me that I was too old and didn’t do enough.”

Ocasio-Cortez, who is 30, started to deny the accusation, but Goldberg insisted that the representative’s past actions had left that impression.

“And so, that has bothered me because I feel like, I love young people. I was once one,” the 64-year-old host said, drawing laughter from the audience. “But you’re on my shoulders, and we have carried this fight.”

Goldberg mentioned Sen. Dianne Feinstein and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, two veteran Democrats from California with whom Ocasio-Cortez and her associates have butted heads.

Tensions have simmered between AOC and senior Democrats for some time now in. In February 2019, Robert Hockett, one of Ocasio-Cortez’s advisers, called the 86-year-old Feinstein an “old-timer” and “elderly” on The Hill‘s weekday morning show “Rising.”

In July, Ocasio-Cortez clashed with Pelosi over the importance of social media, according to The Washington Examiner.

Goldberg defended the female congressional veterans, calling them both “the only chick in the room for years.”
