GOP Senator Tim Scott Goes on ‘The View,’ Sets Whoopi Goldberg Straight

Republican Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) went on ABC’s “The View” and schooled Whoopi Goldberg over recent comments the show’s co-hosts had made about him.

As Slay News previously reported, the show’s hosts attacked Scott when he launched his GOP 2024 bid, with Joy Behar accusing the senator of not understanding black people.

“Tim Scott CONFRONTS The View for the racist and dangerous rhetoric they spew,” said Nicholas Fondacaro, the associate editor for the MRC, as he broke down what happened when Scott joined the show today.

“…On this show that the only way for a young African American kid to be successful in this country is to be the exception and not the rule.”

“That’s a dangerous offensive disgusting message to send…”

Scott told the show’s co-hosts: “Progress in America is palpable.

“It can be measured in generations.

“So, what I’m suggesting is that yesterday’s exception is today’s rule,” he directly spoke to co-host Sunny Hostin.

He adds that the challenges of the past should not be viewed as those that exist today.

Goldberg responded by falsely claiming that Republicans want to drag the country back on race relations.

“How can you get your party to stop trying to stop the progression that people are making?” she asked Scott.

Scott responded by schooling Goldberg.

“It’s an issue of the heart,” Scott said.

“It’s not Republicans or Democrats.”

Ana Navarro then tried to suggest that the U.S. is racist because there are currently only 3 black senators.

But Scott reveals the progress.

In 10 years we’ve had “about half of all the African Americans who ever served in the Senate … this nation is making measurable progress in real time,” he explains.

The co-hosts then tried to argue that Trump tiptoeing down a ramp is worse than Biden falling over repeatedly in public.

“Why are we always talking about Biden’s age and not Donald Trump’s age?” Navarro asked.

“[Trump] could not walk down a ramp, could not hold a glass of water,” Hostin claimed.
