South Carolina Republican Sen. Tim Scott joined “The View” on Monday and it did not take Iong for the gloves to come off.
The show began fairly light-hearted with Scott speaking about his 2024 presidential campaign, but ended up sparring with co-host Sunny Hostin after she pressed him to define “systemic rac ism.”
The conversation began when Alyssa Farah Griffin asked Scott about his optimistic message and his running on his Iife story of having overcome great adversity to live the American dream. Then, Hostin hijacked the conversation and attempted to spar with Scott over his positions.
The interview got so tense at one moment that Goldberg asked the crew for help when she was demanding Scott stop talking so they could cut to commerciaI.
Below is a partial transcript of the exchange:
HOSTIN: I am actually happy that you’re here. We — we — we have some things in common. You grow up — you grew up in a singIe-family household, single-mother household, I grew up with both of my parents but raised in the Bronx projects amidst a lot of poverty and — and — and violence. And you were the first black senator elected in the south since the reconstruction, that would be about — I think, about 114 years. Yet you say that your life disproves left—leftist lies. And — and —
Scott: Yes.
HOSTIN: my question to you is, I’m the exception, right? You’re the exception. Maybe even Ms. Whoopi Goldberg is the exception but — but —
HAINES: She is definitely the exception.
WATCH: Travis Kelce Pushes Head Coach in Sideline Outburst
Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce erupted in frustration towards head coach Andy Reid during a viral sideline outburst in Super Bowl LVIII.
The incident followed a crucial fumble by Chiefs’ starting running back Isaih Pacheco on the team’s opening drive. Kelce, who was not involved in the play, expressed his discontent by confronting Reid, pushing him in the chest.
Video footage showed Kelce being restrained by Chiefs’ pass-catching back Jerick McKinnon after the physical altercation with Reid.
Speculation arose that Kelce’s frustration stemmed from not being included in the play leading to the fumble. He appeared to mouth the words “keep me in” while attempting to communicate with Reid.
The incident sparked widespread discussion on social media, with many criticizing Kelce’s actions.
“Travis Kelce’s behavior towards his coach is unacceptable,” remarked conservative commentator Jack Posobiec.
“Travis Kelce’s behavior is disappointing,” commented a Lakers fan account LakeShowYo.
Some social media users also made light of Kelce’s relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift, joking about her potential reaction to the incident.
