On The View, Whoopi Goldberg blasted NBC anchor Craig Melvin for his questions toward Vice President Kamala Harris concerning the 2024 election.
~~~~~~~~~~
The question came after a New York Times op-ed explored the question of whether Biden will run for reelection with Liz Cheney (R-WY), who lost her leadership of the House due to her feud with former President Donald Trump and her support of the Jan 6th Commission.
~~~~~~~~~~
On the daily talk show, Goldberg criticized Melvin, calling his questions insulting.
Not only is it insulting but, you know, its just crazy. Goldberg said. This idea that we have no say over whats happening like its already done and we shouldnt give a poop.

(16,856 posts)Why would Biden get rid of Harris and choose someone from the other party to run with him? The question must have been intended to rile Harris and get her to say something off the cuff. No serious reporter could ever think that would happen, right?
