It’s almost like roaches voting for Raid [roach spray], right?&quot;She was immediately interjected by her co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who stated that her remarks were “insulting to the voter.” However, this did not stop Hostin from targeting GOP-supporting women, saying that these women were going against their own “self-interest.”Twitter was not happy with Sunny Hostin's remarksAfter Sunny Hostin’s comments about white women voting for Republicans went viral, Twitterati slammed her for spreading racist thoughts on The View.

If she were white calling black women m*nkeys she would be fired. twitter.com/TheView/status…Sunny Hostin has been labeled a racist beforeThis is not the first time that Sunny Hostin has been called out for her racist remarks while co-hosting The View. In September 2022, she accused former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley of hiding her Indian heritage behind her name to win Republican votes.Hostin, whose real name is Asunción Cummings, made some controversial remarks during an episode where the hosts were discussing potential presidential candidates that could contest against current US president Joe Biden in the 2024 elections.Alyssa Farah Griffin suggested that Nikki Haley could be a possible candidate for the same, but Hostin dubbed her a “chameleon” who uses a fake name to win votes.&quot;I think if she leaned into being someone of color, this would be different. There's some of us that can be chameleons and decide not to embrace our ethnicity so that we can pass, that we don’t have to go by—&quot;Soon after, Nikki Haley, whose real name is Nimrata Nikki Randhawa Haley, took to her Twitter handle and called Hostin a “racist” while pointing out that even she does not use her real name.Nikki Haley@NikkiHaleyThanks for your concern @Sunny. It's racist of you to judge my name. Nikki is an Indian name and is on my birth certificate—and I'm proud of that. What's sad is the left's hypocrisy towards conservative minorities. By the way, last I checked Sunny isn't your birth name…404947653Thanks for your concern @Sunny. It's racist of you to judge my name.

By the way, last I checked Sunny isn't your birth name… https://t.co/NI3KZXjD6FAs for Hostin’s stand on the recent overturn of Roe v. Wade, she stated in June that she does not believe in abortion at any time or has any exceptions to it.&quot;That’s considered very radical for many people, and it’s because I’m Catholic… so this has always been a very difficult discussion for me, but what is not difficult for me is the fact that this is an activist Supreme Court, and they should not be deciding the law based on their faith.&quot;As of this article's writing, Sunny Hostin has not responded to the backlash over her comments on social media.
