Tim Scott refutes ‘The View’s’ racial attacks with his life.
Senator Tim Scott Fires Back at “The View” Co-Hosts’ Racially-Charged Attacks
Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) recently announced his candidacy for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. However, he had to respond to racially-charged attacks from liberal co-hosts of ABC’s “The View” during Tuesday’s broadcast.
White co-host Joy Behar claimed that neither Scott nor black conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas “understood” what it was really like to be black in America. Behar also said that Scott and Thomas believed in “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” instead of understanding the systemic racism that African Americans face in the country.

Scott, however, told Fox News that his life disproves the lies of the radical Left. He cited his grandfather, an illiterate cotton field worker, who told him growing up, “You can be bitter or better, but you can’t be both.”
“Meekness is not weakness. I believe in the Gospel. I believe Matthew 5:44 says ‘Love your enemies’ — [but] if you break in my house, I also believe in the Second Amendment,” Scott said.
He argued that he was an example of the rule rather than the exception, contrary to what co-host Sunny Hostin had claimed. Hostin complained that Scott assumed other black Americans could make it because he had, but Scott said that America is a story of evolution and that too many schools are indoctrinating kids instead of educating them.
