"The View" tackled the topic of ageism in politics after Republican presidential hopeful Nikki Haley slammed the Senate as the "most privileged nursing home in the country." The remarks were made last week in the wake of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell appearing to freeze again during a new conference in his state of Kentucky. Haley also threw jabs at 90-year-old Senator Dianne Feinstein and 80-year-old President Joe Biden, who announced his reelection campaign back in April.
Biden's age became a heated topic amongst Wednesday's panel when host Alyssa Farah Griffin seemed to contradict her claim that older congressional lawmakers should be judged on their job performance rather than their number of years.
