It claims that **The View** co-host **Sunny Hostin** expresses real hatred toward America, especially in the context of the country\u2019s upcoming **250th birthday**.  <\/p>\n<p>It cites a clip where Hostin says she\u2019s embarrassed by the U.S., calls it a \u201cfailed experiment,\u201d and lists grievances such as poor healthcare, alleged attacks on the press, the state of Congress, and the presence of what the author describes as a \u201ccriminal felon\u201d president. The author responds by saying these critiques confuse **flaws with failure**, and than emphasizes America\u2019s achievements and global influence-arguing the U.S. remains powerful, prosperous, innovative, and inspiring. The piece concludes that focusing only on grievances while dismissing accomplishments reflects a misguided viewpoint rather than true patriotism.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>People often use the term \u201chate\u201d rather loosely these days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hate the Buffalo Bills,\u201d or \u201cI hate pepperoni,\u201d or \u201cI hate pumpkin pie\u201d are various forms of \u201chate\u201d you may hear.<\/p>\n<p>The term has, frankly, lost a lot of meaning, not unlike the term \u201cracist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s a different, much more real sort of hate that exists out there.

History <em>is <\/em>complicated. Nobody\u2019s arguing that it isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>But of course, Hostin just couldn\u2019t help herself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd at this point, I am embarrassed at our government,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m embarrassed at our lack of health care. I\u2019m embarrassed on the assault on the press. I\u2019m embarrassed of our Congress. I\u2019m embarrassed by the criminal felon president that is in the Oval Office that has a UFC cage on the White House lawn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obamacare failed. Former President Joe Biden\u2019s social media pressure about the coronavirus vaccine was worse than anything Trump may or may not have done against the press. I\u2019ll actually give her Congress being embarrassing, since people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar are in it. \u201cCriminal felon president\u201d is a cute slogan, but missing crucial context. And the UFC is gnarly.<\/p>\n<p>What else you got, Sunny?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m embarrassed about all those things,\u201d she droned on. \u201cAnd I\u2019m also embarrassed at how America is now seen across the globe. I don\u2019t think that many Americans understand that we are part of a wonderful global community. And when you look at our allies, our allies are now giving us a one-star rating as a country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile I am conflicted about this country, because I feel that it is at this point a failed experiment, quite frankly, I am also discouraged by how this country is viewed by the rest of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Look. Is America perfect? Obviously not. No nation is.<\/p>\n<p>But Hostin\u2019s mistake is one that many leftist elitists make: confusing flaws with failure. The United States remains the most powerful, prosperous, innovative, and influential nation on Earth.<\/p>\n<p>Millions of people still risk everything to come here. They don\u2019t cross deserts, oceans, and borders because America is a \u201cfailed experiment.\u201d They do it because, despite its imperfections, America continues to offer opportunities that much of the world simply cannot.<\/p>\n<p>This is the country that defeated fascism, outlasted communism, landed men on the moon, built the modern internet, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >pioneered countless medical breakthroughs<\/a>, and remains the backbone of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fire-fauci-new-study-finds-closing-schools-in-response-to-covid-19-delayed-herd-immunity-and-will-increase-overall-deaths\/\" title=\"FIRE FAUCI: New Study Finds Closing Schools In Response to COVID-19 Delayed Herd Immunity and Will Increase Overall Deaths\">global economy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It is, and this should be important for Hostin, a nation where citizens are free to criticize their leaders on national television without fear of imprisonment, where political power changes hands through elections rather than military coups, and where people from every race, religion, and background can build successful lives. Calling that a failure requires ignoring both history and reality.<\/p>\n<p>Hostin is entitled to her opinions, of course. That\u2019s part of what makes America exceptional.<\/p>\n<p>But if the approach to the nation\u2019s 250th birthday is to dwell exclusively on every perceived grievance while dismissing every accomplishment, then the problem isn\u2019t patriotism. The problem is a perspective.<\/p>\n<p>A country that has achieved so much, overcome so much, and still inspires so much hope around the world deserves better than to be reduced to a punchline by genuinely hateful people fortunate enough to enjoy the very freedoms and prosperity it provides.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f7f7f7; color: #171717; display: flex;font-size: 16px;font-weight: 600;line-height: 1.5;margin: 24px 0;padding: 18px 20px 18px 30px;text-align: left;\">\n<div style=\"align-self: stretch;border-left: 3px solid #171717;flex-shrink: 0;padding-left: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<p><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/\">Choose The Western Journal as your preferred source on Google and never miss reporting that defends truth, protects freedom, and advances Western civilization<\/a><\/div>\n<p style=\"border: 1px solid #f5f5f5; padding: 16px;\">Advertise with The Western Journal and reach millions of highly engaged readers, while supporting our work. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/advertise-us\/?wj_source=article\">Advertise Today<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey == typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts = { \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs = [ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++ ) if( !
