“The View” co-hosts Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines said people felt that former President Barack Obama did not “do enough for black people” during Thursday’s panel.
Hostin said former President Donald Trump’s popularity was a “white-lash” in response to a black president “with unassailable character,” and argued these alleged “threatened” supporters made Trump their “messiah.”
“Everyone voted for a black man with unassailable character and I think in response to that, they felt otherized — threatened — and they felt Trump was their messiah,” Hostin said.
