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.

Natalie Wood looked gorgeous in a bikini at a pool party in the 1960s.
Oh Carol, Carol! At the end of the 1969 film Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, which tackled the themes of honesty and faithfulness in marriage, there was a more adventurous couple attempting to trade wives with their more conventional friends. When you find out that the attractive woman in a paisley bikini, Natalie Wood, is involved, the stakes suddenly seem a little greater. Wood played Carol, a lady determined to confess everything, even their illicit affairs, to her husband Bob (Robert Culp). Although Alice (Dyan Cannon) insisted on switching partners in one of those real-life movie-world cerebral exchanges, Ted (Elliott Gould) wasn’t too thrilled of the idea. It functions for a short duration before breaking down.
