On a recent episode of The View, co-host Sunny Hostin lashed out at roughly half the country of voters, insisting that millions “looked the other way” at what she called President Trump’s misogyny, racism, and mismanagement and calling that attitude “despicable” and “un-American.” The clip made the rounds because it captured the exact tone the left uses when it refuses to accept political differences as legitimate disagreement rather than moral failure.
Hostin’s sermon came wrapped in sanctimony — the kind of moral preening Americans are tired of from elites who live in gated communities and pundit bubbles. She claimed she wouldn’t flat-out call 50 percent of Americans racist or sexist, but she nonetheless judged their character and motives on national television, implying that economic or policy reasons for voting didn’t matter. That kind of contempt was documented in raw transcripts and conservative coverage after the show aired.
Conservatives should call out this arrogance for what it is: a refusal to treat voters as equals and a convenient smokescreen for failing policy. Millions voted for pragmatic reasons — jobs, border security, school choice, and frustration with radical cultural experiments — not because they’re morally bankrupt. Co-hosts who reduce complex political choices to moral indictments reveal their own intellectual poverty and emotional disconnect from working Americans.
Worse, this is not an isolated incident; it’s the media script. Shows like The View have built an audience by mocking and demeaning half the country, then act shocked when that half fires back at elites who treat them like caricatures. Conservative outlets and media watchdogs have repeatedly highlighted these patterns, and the cumulative effect is corrosive: it pushes ordinary Americans away from civic conversation and into defensive tribes.
The real story here is one of accountability: viewers should not reward platforms that traffic in contempt and condescension. If establishment media want to restore credibility they must start by respecting the lived experiences and priorities of everyday Americans rather than lecturing them from a perch of virtue-signaling. Until then, expect more pushback, more distrust, and more voters who’ll tune out a media class that treats them like the problem instead of the backbone of the country.
Patriots who love this country know it is stronger than the show’s caricatures — a nation built on hard work, faith, and the rule of law, not on the perpetual moral panic of a few cable pundits. Conservatives should answer the left’s smear with respect for our neighbors and a renewed push for policies that actually improve lives, not with matching contempt. America deserves better than elite sneers; it deserves honest debate, common-sense leadership, and a media that remembers the difference between criticism and character assassination.
