On Wednesday’s episode of the ABC talk show “The View,” co-host Whoopi Goldberg launched a truly vile attack on Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), branding him a “looney tune” for denying systemic racism.
Goldberg Attacks Scott
Goldberg attacked Scott while she and her co-hosts interviewed Clay Cane, who recently released a book titled, “The Grift: The Downward Spiral of Black Republicans.”
“Let’s not forget, he voted against The Voting Rights Act, gutted the George Floyd Policing Act, and came on this very show and denied systemic racism,” Cane said.
The radically liberal co-host Sunny Hostin responded by claiming that Scott “insulted” her when he appeared on “The View” last year.
“Well, I was here, too,” Goldberg said before viciously attacking Scott by saying that “he was a Looney Tune.”

Joy Behar Chimes In
Co-host Joy Behar chimed in to whine that it is difficult for her to watch Scott speak at Donald Trump rallies, adding that he is “desperate” for power.
“What’s sad about Tim Scott is that I think he knows that if he called out the bigotry in his own party versus endorsing a bigot for president, he knows they would throw him out faster than Liz Cheney,” Cane said.
“It’s pathetic to watch,” Behar continued, going on to note that Scott recently got engaged. “That’s because he wants the job as VP, right? So the engagement was a good way to say, ‘Hey, I’m going to be married. I’m going to be legit. I can be a vice president to Trump.'”

Scott Schools ‘The View’ Hosts
While appearing on “The View” last year, Scott refused to cater to the left-wing narrative of systemic racism in the U.S.
“One of the reasons why I’m on the show is because of the comments that were made frankly on this show that the only way for a young African-American kid to be successful in this country is to be the exception and not the rule. That’s a dangerous, offensive, disgusting message to send to our young people today that the only way to succeed is by being the exception,” Scott said at the time, according to Fox News.
Not stopping there, Scott proceeded to boast about the African-American success in the U.S., pointing out the record low unemployment rate among African Americans.
“Progress in America is palpable, it can be measured in generations,” he said. “I look back at the fact that my grandfather, born in 1921 in Salley, South Carolina, when he was on a sidewalk, a White person was coming — he had to step off and not make eye contact.”
“That man believed then, with some doubt now, in the goodness of America, because he believed that faith in God, faith in himself, and faith in what the future could hold for his kids, would unleash opportunities in ways that you cannot imagine,” Scott added. “So, what I’m suggesting is that yesterday’s exception is today’s rule.”

There’s nobody that shameless liberals like Goldberg despise more than a black conservative, as the existence of someone like Scott completely destroys their narrative that the Republican Party is full of racists. Goldberg can bash Scott all that she wants to, but if she really wants to see a “looney tune,” all she has to do is look in the mirror.
