Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and Rep. Byron Donalds( R-Fla) unleash fury on The View host Joy Behar for claiming Black conservatives don't understand racism in the United States.
For those who don't watch the liberal-filled panel talk about things they have no idea about, Behar insinuated that Black Republican Americans, including Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, "don't get" the struggles of being a U.S. African-American because they choose to ignore or never had to face systemic racism.
"He's one of these guys, like Clarence Thomas, Black Republican, who believes in pulling yourself up by your bootstraps rather than understanding the systemic racism that African Americans face in this country and other minorities. He doesn't get it. Neither does Clarence. That's why they are Republicans," Behar said.
Reacting to Behar's ignorant remarks, Scott said he is the presidential candidate the radical Left fears the most.
Donalds, who Democrats have often accused of being a Black "prop" for the Republican Party, reminded Behar of her insensitive 2019 Halloween costume where she dressed up as a Black woman, telling her to "sit this one out."
Other conservatives spoke up in defense of Behar's unwanted comments saying that as a white woman who sits at a table for an hour doing nothing but bash the Right, she is in no position to talk about Black Americans.
Earlier in the week, co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Sonny Hostin also took shots at Scott, agreeing that he has "Clarence Thomas syndrome."
"One of the issues that Tim Scott has is that he seems to think, 'Because I made it, everyone can make it.' Ignoring, again, the fact that he's the exception and not the rule. And until he's the rule, then he can stop talking about systemic racism," Hostin said.
Do they suffer from a lack of understanding?
Lefturd loon hatred of the good for being the good. So because he is an inspiration for other blacks, he has to be hated.
Joy Behar may have been raised in a Catholic family, but there hasn't been a Catholic idea in her head in decades.
Talk about lack of self-awareness? All of the tnuc’s on the view are ALSO the “exceptions”. No matter the race, White, brown, black, yellow or red...there are only exceptions because some people ARE exceptional in what they choose to do in or with their lives. Not everyone can be a Babe Ruth OR a Jackie Robinson in baseball. Not everyone can be a Cher or Tina Turner in music. The ONLY view on “the view” is a view of exactly how myopic progressive leftist democrats really are. Interesting too is how few of THEM there really are in real life. Maybe they screech louder so they can get some grease? Grandpa always said in his day the second time a squeaking wheel needed grease it got replaced. Wishing it was still that way.
So, if I have this leftist lingo-gymnastics figured out, then a black individual pulling himself up by his own bootstraps is white cultural appropriation?...
Translation: Affirmative Action has won us the lottery.
One thing’s for sure, Joy’s adult diaper is down for the struggle.
If there is “systemic racism”, how have some, Scott, Thomas, etc. managed to somehow avoid it. I’ll bet those harpies cannot cite one example of “systemic racism” against ANY black. Just one, and I’ll shut up.
Other pigs wa5ch it I guess
She’s such a racist to think that other blacks are incapable of doing what Clarence Thomas and Tim Scott have done.
Talk about stereotyping a whole class of people.
This is a good example of the extreme prejudice of white liberals.
The view is the left’s “think tank”. We don’t have much to fear as a result lol.
You are correct sir.
‘Because I made it, everyone can make it.’
Actually, that’s correct.
Because, if you go through life expecting everyone to instantly and eagerly hump your leg JUST because you’re a minority, you won’t get anywhere.
That’s NOT how to get ahead in any aspect of your life
And this makes her Jewish?
Is everyone you don't like automatically "Jewish?"
I was prepared to read that someone had given her the one two worthy of a Steve Inman Commentary treatment, then thrown her out the window and into the dumpster out in the alley from the fourth floor.
That witch is still alive?
“Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps” has nothing to do with lifting yourself into the air. It refers to strapping on your work boots to get ready to go to work. In other words, improving one’s situation through hard work and self-determination, rather than getting assistance from someone else.
So, I guess what the View seems to be saying is that if a black person wants to avoid racism, become a black conservative. In other words, conservatives are not racists and treat black people as individuals. Sometimes, clowns and idiots speak truth when they intend an insult.
We need an overweight, nasal, whining Karen to tell us all what is means to be black!
