Is “The View” cohost Sunny Hostin the literal worst? Maybe not on a cosmic scale. But man, in the moment, she really can be the literal worst.
Guess with all our coverage of the deadly shooting at Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, this clip must’ve fallen through the cracks. But we really shouldn’t let it just get forgotten. It’s too gross and terrible and demented:

Transcript:
Sunny Hostin: “And so, as a woman of color, with a 6-foot-2 black kid in college, and a 5-foot-7, 5-foot-8 black kid in high school, I don’t see that part of American exceptionalism. I’m sorry. I think this country has a lotta problems that could be solved. Yes, maybe they’re putting, uh, Muslims in jail in Afghanistan, I think you mentioned …”
Alyssa Farah Griffin: “In China.”
Hostin: “In China. They’re putting a lotta black, more black people in jail here.”
Where to even begin with that? It’s bad enough that Hostin genuinely didn’t seem to realize that Muslims were being put “in jail” in China. But her characterization of forced labor camps where innocent Muslims are tortured and Muslim women are forcibly sterilized as “jail” is insane. And her suggestion that black people in America have it worse than Uyghurs in China is so outrageously offensive … we just can’t. Nor do we want to.

Has Hostin considered these people are in prison for a legitimate reason? Or do we just automatically whip out the Race Card?

In jail you’re there because of your own actions, internment camps you’re there against your will.

For breaking the law.
Unlike in China where they’re in camps just for being. https://t.co/PQ5nw32NBj— Ricky Morton (@RickyMo23120624) March 29, 2023
Millions and millions of political prisoners who are not criminals are in CCP prisons!
