“The View” co-hosts debated Wednesday whether or not Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was too progressive, after she lost her bid to fill the top Democratic position on the House Oversight Committee.

“She’s been demonized as being too progressive, far left, and I want to try to set the record straight because if she’s too progressive, then the Democrats are really going to lose the working class, because it “That’s his show,” co-host Sunny Hostin said. “The key issues: health care for all. Affordable housing, rebuilding unions, the Federal Jobs Guarantee, free public college… If that’s too progressive for this country, then it’s a problem for Democrats, and it’s a problem, frankly, for this country.”

Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., 74, defeated Ocasio-Cortez, 35, 131 to 84 on Wednesday, thanks in part to the influence of former Speaker Nancy, 84. Pelosi, D-Calif.

Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin pushed back against Hostin and said “the devil is in the details,” noting that Ocasio-Cortez supported the far-left Green New Deal.

“A lot of this country doesn’t support, for example, the Green New Deal, which would actually kill jobs across the country,” Griffin said. “It would actually make international travel virtually impossible because of certain regulations that would be in place.”

Hostin insisted the Green New Deal would create “millions of jobs.”

The co-hosts also discussed how the Democratic Party should move forward after Trump’s victory.

Co-host Sara Haines echoed an opinion piece written by Rahm Emmanuel in the Washington Post, arguing that Democrats tell people what they care about rather than listening to what they actually care about.

Hostin then chimed in to say, “crime is down.”
