Sen. Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), who just announced his bid for the GOP presidential nomination, was a guest on The View on Monday when things started to get out of control.

During the segment, Scott was asked about his views on racism by one of the liberal hosts, Sunny Hostin.

She specifically asked him about his opinion on systemic racism, as he is known to have a controversial take. This comes after he had a debate with cohost Joy Behar about the topic, and the hosts hoped to get more clarification on his view.

Scott went on to define systemic racism as “a dangerous, offensive, disgusting message to send to our young people today.”

He believes that black people who are successful today are the rule and not the exception, while many liberals believe the opposite.

During the heated debate, co-host Ana Navarro grilled Mr Scott and asked him if he believed Mr DeSantis and the Republicans had gone too far with their rhetoric on culture wars.
