Whoopi Goldberg Advises AOC To 'Sit Still,' 'Learn The Job' Before 'Pooping On People'

100. I think she's right.

Whoopi's been around for a while. I'm older, too. No doubt she has seen what I've seen over the years. I've seen this before at work, when new young people come in. They don't know anything, but think they know everything. They're going to tell people how to do things better (like the existing people don't know what they're doing and haven't tried other ways). They often didn't last long.

She can be a real asset. I hope she doesn't ruin it for herself before then, though. It's like what the Bee Gees called "First Fame." When someone suddenly becomes famous at a young age...they go overboard, they're famous and loved, they start believing the hype about themselves, they get arrogant and difficult. It's hard to handle, and not many young people are good at handling that, if it happens suddenly.

It seems to me that the #1 rule for a newcomer should be: Don't make enemies; respect the ones who have been doing the work before you got there. She hasn't sponsored any bills, passed any bills, or done anything yet. When it comes time for that, she will need friends in the House.
