CLAY TRAVIS (HOST): Caitlin Clark's race and her gender are not the reasons that she's popular, they had nothing to do with her becoming the NCAA scoring champion. In fact, regardless of what race Caitlin Clark was, regardless of her sexuality, she would still be employed in the WNBA. She could be the ugliest person on the planet, her game still translates. Her race doesn't matter. Okay? Can Sunny Hostin say the same thing? Sunny Hostin to my knowledge, rarely if ever says anything smart. I do think she's pretty and she's a minority. If Sunny Hostin were an ugly, fat, white woman, she would have no media career whatsoever if she had the exact same opinions as she does now. Think about that. Sunny Hostin, you are an ugly, fat woman, you have no media career. Unlike Caitlin Clark, who regardless of her race or her sexuality would be employed in the WNBA, if Sunny Hostin wasn't pretty and a minority she would have no media career whatsoever. If she were unattractive and white there's a 0% chance she would be on The View.

Sunny Hostin being totally unself-aware about the fact that she's criticizing a woman for her popularity based on her race and her attractiveness, and not recognizing that her own race and her own attractiveness is the reason she has a job is so crazily lacking in self-awareness, that there's no wonder that she's on The View, which is frankly, the least self-aware show on television.
