Following former President Trump’s massive victory in the 2024 presidential election, ABC’s “The View” has lamented what the future holds as the Republican Party is set to retake the White House and both chambers of Congress.  In today’s segment, co-host Sunny Hostin outlined how she is “profoundly disturbed” at the prospect of Trump having “unfettered power.”

Hostin said to her panelists, “I don’t know. I’m profoundly disturbed. I think if you look at the New York Times this morning, the headline was, ‘America makes a perilous choice.’ I think that in 2016 we didn’t know what we would get from a Trump administration, but we know now, and we know now that he will have almost unfettered power.”

Hostin proceeded to illustrate how she worries about numerous groups across American society.And so I worry not about myself, actually. I worry about my station in life. I worry about the working class. I worry about my mother, a retired teacher. I worry about our elderly and their social security and their care.”  The co-host proceeded to tout the Democratic narrative that Trump somehow lead to people having “less rights.”

“I worry about my children’s future, especially my daughter, who now has less rights than I have. And I remember my father telling me many, many years ago that I was the first person in his family to enjoy full civil rights, and now I have less civil rights than I had when he told me that,” Hostin said, without substantiating how Trump would revoke the rights of American citizens.

She further pushed the insurrection narrative, suggesting that Trump should’ve been disqualified from running for office.  “So again, I’m profoundly disturbed that the 14th Amendment of the Constitution did not prevent someone who participated in an insurrection from becoming president of the United States. I think that going forward, the convicted felon box unemployment applications better be taken off, because if you can be the President of the United States,” the co-host said.

“Unemployment in this country, because I remember applying for my jobs as a federal prosecutor, and there was a box for convicted felons, and so that box better, better be taken off. And I think our healthcare system is now at risk,” Hostin said, continuing to go down a lengthy list of worries she has for the state of the nation.

She continued, “Yeah, economists have made clear that he’s going to increase the debt by $7.75 trillion I’m worried about mass deportation and internment camps, and I’m also worried about Elon Musk warning Americans to prepare for temporary hardship. I’m surprised at the result, but I’m not surprised.”  Concluding Hostin noted, “As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a mixed-race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country. And I think that it had nothing to do with policy. I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.”
