Whoopi Goldberg Defends Biden: 'I Don't Want Joe to Stop' Kissing and Smelling Women's Hair | Breitbart
Monday on ABCās āThe View,ā co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Meghan McCain and Joy Behar defended former Vice President Joe Biden in the wake of former Nevada lawmaker Lucy Floresā claim he inappropriately touched and kissed her in 2014 at a campaign rally.
Goldberg said, āListen, in the old days we would call Joeāsome folks of a certain age would say heās overly familiar. Most politicians when theyāre doing this with you, they areāJoe is a hands-on kind of guy. Iāve never heard anyoneāshe says she felt violated. I have to take her at her word. But it would have been nice if she turned to him and say, āYou know what, I donāt really like this. Please donāt do this, Mr. Vice President. Iām not comfortable with this.ā Something, because heās standing right there.ā...
Joy Behar said, āItās a long way from smelling your hair to grabbing your hoo-ha. Letās tell the truth. But she felt annoyed or uncomfortable, and we have to accept that. I donāt think it rises to the point weāve been listening to like Harvey Weinstein and the rest of these people. It just doesnāt look like that. We all know Joe Biden. Heās been here. When I met him in Florida before he was vice president, heās so friendly. Heās a close talker. He comes right up into your face, and youāre thinking I hope my breath is good. Or more important I hope he is. He talks close, he touches. Thatās what heās like. I feel it would be unfortunate if we got rid of everybody whoās an affectionate kind of person. Those are nice people too.ā...
Goldberg said, āThat pisses me off. Iām telling you ⦠I donāt want Joe to stop doing that.ā
Meghan McCain said, āI donāt either. Iām going to say one thing. Thereās a certain kind of retail politician that loves people. I would put Bill Clinton in that category and my father in that category, and certainly, I would put Joe Biden in that category. Heās the only politician other my father to go into the crowd and shake everyoneās hands. That means something when you are in Iowa. When I heard this, I read her entire statement. I agree women should be heard. I worked at Fox News during the Roger Ailes time. There is a very big difference between things like that and things like this.ā
She continued, āJoe Biden is a good and decent man.ā
She added, āI vouch for his character and in my personal experience.ā
Goldberg said, āIām doing the same.ā
Behar added, āMe too.ā
Goldberg said, āFor me, these things are not Democratic or Republican.ā
She continued, āI want women to get to the place where they can say, āhey, you just made me uncomfortable.ā This idea that you have to tiptoe away from this, or you have to carry it. You do not have to carry it. If someone makes you uncomfortable, tell them. He came down to do you a favor. He came down to do you a favor. He was at your fundraiser. You had every right to say āDonāt do that Joe.'ā
