Tim Scott's Views on Racism in America Spark Controversy and Praise

Republican presidential candidate Tim Scott appeared on "The View" and pushed back on the panelists' claims that his success story is an exception rather than the rule for Black Americans. Notably absent was panelist Joy Behar, who previously made controversial comments about Scott being a "Black Republican" who doesn't understand systemic racism. Scott criticized Behar's hypocrisy, referencing her past use of blackface. He also argued that liberal policies keep minorities at the bottom of the ladder and remove rungs for climbing. Scott expressed his goal of ensuring that the next generation of Americans can accomplish even more than he has.
