The View’s Joy Behar branded White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt a “DEI hire” as she blasted her over comments about Gen-Z Americans suffering from “laziness.”
"She has all these things she got an education she married a rich guy so we'll talk about a DEI hire I think to Joy's point, you know, it's really rich for her at 28 years old. She married a 65 year old I mean, that's that's her choice. He's worth six million dollars. So I don't know What she is 61? I'm sorry So I'm not sure where she where where she comes off saying that Gen Z ears are lazy I'm raising Gen Z ears. They work constantly and I know I can see it. They make a lot less money She lives paycheck to paycheck 42% of Gen Z ears have For two-thirds of Gen Z's are now in the workforce 42% of them say they are living paycheck to paycheck just to be fair to Caroline. She's been personally very successful She's had a big career in politics and media. She's made over a million dollars herself That's probably why she may have a blind spot to what the generational struggles are because I talk about this constantly Yes It has never been harder for a generation to get ahead in the last Correctly has daughter in the last 50 years So in 1980 the dollar went three times further than it did today the average First time homebuyer is now in their 40s We this is not the American dream that we were promised our parents had is just not as attainable with well rise of Here's the truth of the matter the American dream has always been unattainable for many in this for many And you know a lot of us Believed in the promise and saw when we went to the bank that we were treated differently at the bank When we went to get a loan we saw we were treated differently. We couldn't go to schools We couldn't buy places to we couldn't live in the places we wanted to live So this is always going to be like this and it's been hard Since I you know, I'm 70. I remember my mom just trying to get ahead My mother agreed, but I do think this rise of tech is different than what other generations have faced So we are they're entering the workforce and being told jobs will not Laziness and that is the Carolina side of it, but also it is it is also Something we have to remember is that listen if you couldn't get an education You couldn't pull your bootstraps up cuz you'd have any boots, correct"
