“The View” co-host Ana Navarro appeared to suffer a meltdown over the fact many Americans are concerned about Joe Biden’s age while attempting to carry out the most important job in the world.

At 80, Biden is the oldest president in US history. If we elected, he would be 82 at the start of a second term and 86 by the end of it.

Many Americans have rightfully asked whether or not Biden is physically and mentally fit to handle the job.

Navarro claims this issue is meant to “cause panic.” She also said Biden won’t die “anytime soon.”

“This is what Republicans have against Biden because this administration has really gotten a ton of very difficult bipartisan legislation through in a divided Congress with a very difficult Senate makeup of 50/50,” Navarro said.

“Bipartisan infrastructure bill, bipartisan safe communities act, first major gun legislation in decades, U.S. Innovation and Competition Act, bipartisan climate health care and tax package, the Fiscal Responsibility Act, and the list is long.”

“What do they need to focus on?” she added. “They need to focus on the undeniable, and Joe Biden is old. That’s a narrative that has been created to cause panic in people, and what’s the second part of that narrative? Joe Biden is old and Kamala Harris is unprepared.”

Co-host Whoopi Goldberg said, “Joe Biden is old, but he ain’t dying any time soon.”

“I don’t know if you guys saw him this weekend. He was at the G20. One moment I turned on the TV, he was in India, and then I turned on the TV, he was in Vietnam,” she continued.

“Then I turned on the TV, he was giving a press conference, and then at the end of being up for, like, 24 hours working in a completely different part of the world, he said, ‘you know what? I got to go to bed’ while Republicans were all pouncing on the fact that the man who had been up for 38 hours had to — I had to go to bed just watching him on TV.”

Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “That’s kind of offensive to me, and the other thing is she’s [accused of being] unprepared.”

“Kamala Harris, by the way, was the first woman elected DA of San Francisco, the first woman to be attorney general of California,” she continued.

“She’s the first female vice president. She’s been on the job doing a damn good job, and I am so tired of people questioning her qualifications. The woman is ready to lead if she needs to lead, but I don’t think Joe Biden’s going anywhere because I see him on his bike in Delaware,” she argued.
