South Carolina Republican Sen. Tim Scott joined “The View” on Monday and it did not take Iong for the gloves to come off.
The show began fairly light-hearted with Scott speaking about his 2024 presidential campaign, but ended up sparring with co-host Sunny Hostin after she pressed him to define “systemic rac ism.”
The conversation began when Alyssa Farah Griffin asked Scott about his optimistic message and his running on his Iife story of having overcome great adversity to live the American dream. Then, Hostin hijacked the conversation and attempted to spar with Scott over his positions.
The interview got so tense at one moment that Goldberg asked the crew for help when she was demanding Scott stop talking so they could cut to commerciaI.
Below is a partial transcript of the exchange:
HOSTIN: I am actually happy that you’re here. We — we — we have some things in common. You grow up — you grew up in a singIe-family household, single-mother household, I grew up with both of my parents but raised in the Bronx projects amidst a lot of poverty and — and — and violence. And you were the first black senator elected in the south since the reconstruction, that would be about — I think, about 114 years. Yet you say that your life disproves left—leftist lies. And — and —
Scott: Yes.
HOSTIN: my question to you is, I’m the exception, right? You’re the exception. Maybe even Ms. Whoopi Goldberg is the exception but — but —
HAINES: She is definitely the exception.
Andrea Bocelli’s wife is truly breathtaking!
Andrea Bocelli and Veronica Berti share a beautiful love story, despite their notable age difference. The renowned tenor revealed in an interview that although they officially tied the knot in 2014, their marriage truly began the moment they met.
Their deep affection for one another is evident in their public appearances, where Bocelli’s tender gaze at Veronica reflects their genuine bond. Veronica, now 40, first crossed paths with Andrea, who is 66, in 2002 at a party. At the time, Andrea was navigating the aftermath of his marriage, and Veronica was just 18. He fondly recalled that their relationship progressed rapidly, saying: “We moved in together that very night”.
After several years of dating, the couple solidified their commitment at the Madonna di Montenero Sanctuary in Tuscany, Italy, in 2014. Recently, the pair was spotted in Saint Tropez, enjoying the sun and relaxing on a yacht with family, with Veronica photographed in a bathing suit.
In another recent update, Andrea shared that he faced a health challenge earlier this year but has since recovered and is in good spirits. He has expressed gratitude for the support of his family and fans during that time, emphasizing the importance of staying positive and focused on what truly matters.
