The View co-hosts clash after attributing racism and misogyny to Trump’s election victory
Co-hosts of ‘The View’ clashed after Sunny Hostin attributed Donald Trump’s election victory to racism and misogyny. “As a country, it’s very difficult for people to believe that racism and misogyny, they’re just alive and well,” Hostin claimed. “I think that we don’t want to think that about ourselves, our neighbours, our friends, but it’s – my lived experience tells me that it does still exist, even if your lived experience doesn’t tell that it exists and, you know, the facts support that.” Fellow co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin hit back at Hostin’s comments, saying racism and misogyny are not why Trump won the election. Griffin argued the reason why people voted for them was because they wanted a good life for their families. “Why did Black people vote for her? Black people are one of the poorest demographics in this country, they voted for Kamala Harris,” Griffin said. “If you think the vast majority of this country voted because of racism and misogyny, you’re missing it.”
