The ladies of The View are always spewing nonsense. It’s what they do best.
And a host of The View just made an anti-American claim.
On Monday, The View co-host Sunny Hostin trained her sights on the ultimate symbol of American unity: the Stars and Stripes.
While most citizens see the flag as a beacon of freedom, opportunity, and shared sacrifice, Hostin admitted it triggers deep unease in her.
Her latest comments prove just how disconnected coastal media elites remain from everyday patriots who proudly fly the colors.
The segment centered on a recent photograph showing masked members of the Patriot Front next to a black woman on a train.
“There are times when I walk into a community and I see American flags all over the community and I suddenly feel unsafe because there is a section of this country that has co-opted the American flag and they equate being an American, or an American flag, with white supremacy,” Hostin stated.
This remarkable confession lays bare a worldview that treats love of country as suspicious.
While regular Americans hang flags on porches, wave them at ballgames, and teach children to honor them, Hostin scans neighborhoods for danger.
The implication is clear: too many flags mean potential trouble.
Patriot Front’s marches often draw scrutiny, and their tactics invite legitimate debate about optics and messaging.
Yet twisting that moment into an attack on the flag itself reveals more about Hostin’s priors than any supposed threat.
The American flag belongs to all citizens who cherish the republic’s founding principles, not to any single group.
For generations, men and women of every background fought under that banner.
From Normandy to Iwo Jima, from Gettysburg to Fallujah, Americans bled for the ideals it represents: individual liberty, equal justice under law, and self-government.
Dismissing those sacrifices as coded supremacy insults the memory of Black, White, Hispanic, and Asian service members who answered the call.
Hostin’s rhetoric fits a disturbing pattern among left-wing pundits who have spent years rebranding national symbols as problematic.
Statues toppled, anthems questioned, holidays renamed—each move chips away at the cultural glue holding this nation together.
The flag stands as the last major holdout, which explains why it draws such frantic opposition.
