Hostin Lashes Out at ‘Uneducated White Women’ for Kamala Losing Bigly
Sunny Hostin, co-host of ABC’s The View, proved once again how staunchly racist she was when she lashed out at “uneducated white women” and blamed them for Vice President Harris’s stunning loss to President-elect Trump. She also suggested she wasn’t surprised by America’s sexism and racism and that the election “was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.”
Perhaps trying to deflect attention away from how she inadvertently crippled the Harris campaign with a softball question last month, Hostin proclaimed, “black women tried to save this country again last night” and lashed out at her favorite demographic to fling her hate at:
What we did not was white women, who voted about 52 percent for Donald Trump, uneducated white women in my understanding. You have Latino men actually voting more for him. And you have – And black men were not the story here because they voted almost 80 percent for the Vice President.
Why do you think uneducated white women voted against their reproductive health freedoms and why did Latino men voted in favor of someone that’s going to deport – says he’s going to deport the majority of his community?
Anti-Trump Republican Alyssa Farah Griffin, who seems to be recrafting herself as the Trump-voter explainer on the panel following Trump’s win, actually pushed back on Hostin’s smears. “I don’t think white women like being called uneducated white women. I think the economy matters, national security matters,” she argued before Hostin rudely interrupted to claim she was only quoting polls (which was a lie).
“When you put people in these boxes, I think that’s a takeaway from this race,” Farah Griffin added.
Hostin began her comments by proclaiming she was “profoundly disturbed” by her fellow Americans and the results. She went on an unhinged rant about she does not “worry about [her] station in life” but she does worry about how her and her daughter supposedly have fewer civil rights now:
I worry about my children's future, especially my daughter who now has less [sic] rights than I have. I remember my father telling me many, many years ago that I was the first person in his family to enjoy full civil rights. And now I have less [sic] civil rights than I had when he told me that.
She went on to claim that “our healthcare system is now at risk” and claimed Trump was going to put people in “internment camps.”
Of course, according to her warped sense of reality, it all boiled down to America being racist and sexist. “As a woman of color,” she condescendingly prefaced. “I was so hopeful that a mixed race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country.”
Without evidence, she claimed the wholesale rejection of Harris “had nothing to do with policy,” but rather “a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.”
While four of the six hosts where wearing black, Hostin’s racist attacks on white women were the worst of The View’s reaction to Trump’s victory. For instance, Joy Behar said she “vehemently disagree[s] with the decision that Americans made, but I feel very, very hopeful that we have a democratic system in this country. We should value it. We should love it.”
Moderator Whoopi Goldberg, who often flips out when Trump mispronounces “Kamala,” reaffirmed that she would still be refusing to say his name. "He's now the president. I'm still not going to say his name. That's not going to change,” she said.
All of them said they would respect the results, but would continue to stand and “march” against Trump whenever possible.

SUNNY HOSTIN: I'm profoundly disturbed. I think if you look at the New York Times this morning, the headline was “America makes a perilous choice.” I think that in 2016 we didn't know what we would get from a Trump administration. But we know now. And we know now that he will have almost unfettered power.
And so, I worry – not about myself actually. I don't worry about my station in life. I worry about the working-class. I worry about my mother, a retired teacher. I worry about our elderly and their social security and their Medicare. I worry about my children's future, especially my daughter who now has less [sic] rights than I have. I remember my father telling me many, many years ago that I was the first person in his family to enjoy full civil rights. And now I have less [sic] civil rights than I had when he told me that.
So again, I am profoundly disturbed that the 14th Amendment of the Constitution did not prevent someone who participated in an insurrection from becoming president of the United States. I think that going forward, the convicted felon box on employment applications better be taken off. Because if you can be president of the United States, then you should not be prevented from employment in this country.
Cause, I remember applying for my job as a federal prosecutor and there was a box for convicted felons. And that box better be taken off.
And I think our healthcare system is now at risk.
JOY BEHAR: No fluoride for anyone.
HOSTIN: Economists have made clear that he's going to increase the debt by $7.75 tillion. I'm worried about mass deportation and internment camps. And I’m also worried about Elon Musk warning Americans to prepare for temporary hardship.
I'm surprised by the result, but I'm not surprised. As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a mixed race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country. And I think that it had nothing to do with policy. I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.

HOSTIN: I want to dig further into the demographics because black women tried to save this country again last night. 92 percent of black women voted for the Vice President. You have Latinas in the 70 percentile voting for the Vice President.
What we did not was white women, who voted about 52 percent for Donald Trump, uneducated white women in my understanding. You have Latino men actually voting more for him. And you have – And black men were not the story here because they voted almost 80 percent for the Vice President.
Why do you think uneducated white women voted against their reproductive health freedoms and why did Latino men voted in favor of someone that’s going to deport – says he’s going to deport the majority of his community.
ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: I don’t think white women like being called uneducated white women. I think the economy matters, national security matters –
HOSTIN: That's what the polls said!
FARAH GRIFFIN: When you put people in these boxes, I think that’s a takeaway from this race.
HOSTIN: We have to look at the demographics of it.
