ESPN -Gastheer Stephen A. Smith challenged Whoopi Goldberg during “The view” on Tuesday about the message problem of the Democratic Party After the liberal host tried to defend the messages by comparing them with President Donald Trump.
“If you think he is being accused twice, 34 crime convictions, and they have still chosen him for president, it is not about he would win. It was an indictment against the Democratic party and what the Democratic party offers to American citizens. We could sit there, brought the democratic party to what it was in recent decades.
Smith, a Trump critic, has regularly criticized the Democratic Party And their messages prior to the elections and after Trump won.
Co-host Whoopi Goldberg tried to push back on Smith and said that they wanted to remind people of what those issues were, with the argument that they were admitted, “ensuring that families had what they need. Snap, make sure that things are there. Make sure that we all grew where you could come and be that you are always.”

She then compared that with the early executive actions by President Donald Trump, in particular in reducing federal jobs, as Smith pushed back.
“Before you brought it up, you brought up the message that the Democratic Party was spread. I challenge you to that. That’s not what they were doing,” he said.
Goldberg shot back: “Oh, yes, that was it. I was here. We did it.”
Smith further claimed that Biden contributed to a large migrant crisis and wondered why, pointing out that former President Barack Obama has deported more migrants than Trump.
“The bottom line is that you are Joe Biden, you open the boundaries. You know now, Barack Obama deported more people than Trump. You know what he didn’t do, he didn’t put out of his chest and bladder about it, he just did it. What did Joe Biden do? Migrant crisis,” said Smith.

In the second segment, Smith made the argument That Trump had a mandate of the American people, pointing to his winnings within minority groups.
“If you are the Democratic Party and you lost 49.8%to 48.3%, and looking at that difference of 1.5%, that is an excuse to say what we really didn’t do so badly, we should keep doing that. No, don’t keep doing it, find a new strategy,” he said.
Smith demanded what Democrats did to win future elections, and said he would continue to interview prominent democratic figures and ask them that question.

“I want someone to come up and recognize that man in the Oval Office, whether you like it or not, is powerful, he is coming and he wins, you have to find a way to defeat him,” he said.
