‘She Made It About Herself’: Dem Senator Slams Whoopi Goldberg’s ‘Self-Centered’ Attack On NYC Bakery
Democratic New York state Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton tore into “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg’s “self-centered” attack on a New York City bakery early Saturday on “Fox and Friends Weekend.”
Scarcella-Spanton slammed Goldberg’s “ridiculous” accusations
“I think it was such a ridiculous thing to do. Inserting herself into a conversation about a local business and coming after a business, especially as a celebrity, can be incredibly dangerous. But the Staten Island community comes together,” she said.
“It was really self-serving, very self-centered. Businesses aren’t thinking about Whoopi Goldberg, they’re thinking about how to make sure they get out the best pastries as you see them right on the screen in front of you, they were able to get them,” Scarcella-Spanton continued as footage of Goldberg with several cupcakes played on the screen beside her.
“So, instead of focusing on something positive, she made it about herself,” Scarcella-Spanton said.
“I always tell people, I’m a Democrat. I’m a normal Democrat. Holtermann’s never refused to serve me. They just had a boiler issue,” she said.
