WATCH: Whoopi Goldberg Says Joe Manchin Criticizing Kamala Harris Sounds “Bigoted” and “Disrespectful”
Whoopi Goldberg made headlines Monday over comments made about Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) criticizing VP Harris for making a trip to West Virginia without notifying him or his office. Goldberg implied that the Senator’s criticisms were, “bigoted” and “disrespectful.”
Goldberg blasted the moderate West Virginia Democrat for his criticism of VP Harris stating that, “Joe, she is the vice president. She does not work for you. She doesn’t need your permission to go do this.”
The often angry TV host did not stop there, going on to add that his critique of Harris sounds, “a little bigoted, like you think you have the right to tell her when she can and cannot come someplace.”
Goldberg’s co-host Sunny Hostin joined in saying that she, “was actually really almost offended that he sort of said that kind of thing. I found it to be pretty disrespectful. I was surprised.”
The video footage of Goldberg’s bizarre rant is embedded below:
Typically it is a gesture of good-will for the President and Vice President to inform leaders of their own Political Party, especially US Senators, when they intend to visit their home states.
Senator Manchin is considered one of the most moderate Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle, the tension between VP Harris and Senator Manchin will be important to watch in the coming days, weeks, months, and years.
