Sunny Hostin told her co-hosts Friday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump’s second term was an “existential crisis.”
According to Hostin, Democrats need to stop playing by the rules. When asked about politicians skipping town halls, Hostin said, “It’s very un-American, and it’s cowardly. If you are just, you know, stepping in line the way Republicans generally do behind a candidate that is harming the economy, I mean, you need to listen to the people that put you in office. Instead of being so concerned about maintaining power, why not be more concerned with helping people? That’s the thing that I’m so much more concerned about.”

Dems NEVER play by the rules. Cheating and lying are in their DNA.

Those people on "The View" certainly voted for Kamala because they don't make any more sense than she did. It comes as a surprise to me that any Democrat ever "plays by the rules."

The View hosts must be like road kill to their viewers.
I can't imagine why anyone watches except to see the daily disaster and self humiliation the hosts inflict on themselves. Or maybe the producers are secretly hard core MAGA and want the world to see them.

Exactly what rules is she talking about? Firebombing car dealerships and SWATing innocent people doesn't sound very much like "rules",.

Projection very strong is in them!
They'd have to start playing by the rules before they can stop playing by the rules.

When your ideology depends on government agencies acting as a funding source for your non-profits, NGOs, and media outlets, I guess you could make the argument you are facing an existential crisis right now.
But what does it say about you if in the absence of money-laundering, malfeasance, grift, and corruption your ideology becomes muted and ineffective? It suggests to me that you never had grassroots support to the extent you wanted us to believe.

Pray that she AND her partners in lying have time to repent. Pray also they lose their evil pulpit.

"Existential Crisis"
So that means, literally, if the crisis plays out, Hostin and the View would cease to exist?
I'd be OK with that.
As to "rules", the dems have shown for the last few decades that they play to win by any and all means. It just took the Country until recently to realize how corrupt and incompetent they are and boot them out. Hostin is saying they are not corrupt enough. If the "rules" are actually "laws", we have jail cells waiting for you. Let's see how that works out for you Sunny. I understand that the concept of accountability is foreign to Leftists but we are offering free lessons.

Again with the word "existential." The word is beginning to lose all meaning. Yadda yadda yadda.

What planet dos this woman live on. A mixed color woman with a lawyers degree, a family history of slave dealers, a lucky good looking woman with all of the benefits provided in this world and all she can do is spread her hate.

The first rule of warfare when you are fighting for your life is that there are no rules. Leftist fanatics started it, now they are suffering the consequences. Five mouths running without benefit of functioning brains are not going to win anything.

Yes, of course. Another way to say "stop playing by the rules" is "cheat"...a craft that the Democrats perfected many years ago. Where has Hostin been all these years? If the Democrat party had ever been forced to play from a level playing field it would have died on the vine decades ago.

When she says, “rules”, she doesn’t mean “Rules for Radicals” as those are the only rules they play by.

It's hard to believe that someone can actually be brain-dead and still function, but Hostin and the rest of the Views coven prove it's possible, every day!

As Harvey Logan said to Butch Cassidy, "Rules? In a knife fight? No rules!" Then you remember what happened. I agree that "existential" is now a much abused word by people who don't really know what it means. They just throw it around like self-impressed zoo monkeys hurling faeces. Sunny's doctor husband appears to be in heap big trouble for apparently ripping off the medical system. If the evidence against him holds up, I'd say he has a problem, not of existence, but of his personal liberty. The doc could go to prison and rot there. Sunny is not so sunny anymore.

It's very ironic, but Sunny is too blind and stupid to realize it. They created the New Rules, and now our side, having purged our pussies, collaborators and appeasers, are now playing by them.
They were warned.

For many years rules and laws have only applied to Republicans. Democrats are never held to account for their crimes many which are all well known to most here. However I suspect we only know the visible tip of the iceberg.
