Tim Scott faces backlash on 'The View' for defending GOP stance on race.

Sen. Tim Scott criticized the hosts of "The View" for their "offensive, disgusting message" about him being the "exception" to systemic racism in the U.S. He argued that progress in America is measured in generations and that yesterday's exception is today's rule. Scott also emphasized that both sides of the aisle can do a better job on the issue of race. The hosts of "The View" have previously compared Scott to African-American Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and said he doesn't understand systemic racism.
