People often use the term “hate” rather loosely these days.
“I hate the Buffalo Bills,” or “I hate pepperoni,” or “I hate pumpkin pie” are various forms of “hate” you may hear.
The term has, frankly, lost a lot of meaning, not unlike the term “racist.”
But there’s a different, much more real sort of hate that exists out there. It’s not the sort of hate you just casually announce or throw around. It’s the sort of genuine hatred that emanates from one’s actions and words.
And it doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to figure out that “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin really does hate America for not being the far-left fever dream that she seems to want.
Just watch this latest clip, courtesy of the Media Research Center’s Associate Editor Nicholas Fondacaro, that’s making the rounds showing how festive Hostin is in the lead-up to America’s 250th birthday celebration:
“And so I think we have a very complicated history here,” Hostin said. “I think it’s a very complicated country.”
Honestly, had she stopped here with her Debbie Downer act, it would’ve been defensible. History is complicated. Nobody’s arguing that it isn’t.
But of course, Hostin just couldn’t help herself.
“And at this point, I am embarrassed at our government,” she said. “I’m embarrassed at our lack of health care. I’m embarrassed on the assault on the press. I’m embarrassed of our Congress. I’m embarrassed by the criminal felon president that is in the Oval Office that has a UFC cage on the White House lawn.”
Obamacare failed. Former President Joe Biden’s social media pressure about the coronavirus vaccine was worse than anything Trump may or may not have done against the press. I’ll actually give her Congress being embarrassing, since people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar are in it. “Criminal felon president” is a cute slogan, but missing crucial context. And the UFC is gnarly.
What else you got, Sunny?
“I’m embarrassed about all those things,” she droned on. “And I’m also embarrassed at how America is now seen across the globe. I don’t think that many Americans understand that we are part of a wonderful global community. And when you look at our allies, our allies are now giving us a one-star rating as a country.
