Author and political analyst Coleman Hughes appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience recently to discuss his guest appearance on The View; Hughes was promoting his book The End of Race Politics on the daytime talk show when the ladies accused him of being co-opted.

Rogan and Hughes discussed the appearance and blasted the show.

“It is the show that people love to hate,” Rogan said. “They get so much hate-watching … and viral clips of them saying ridiculous things. It is a rabies-infested hen house.”

The clip from Hughes’ appearance on The View that went viral involved an exchange with co-host Sunny Hostin.

“Many in the Black community … believe that you are being used as a pawn by the right, and that you’re a charlatan of sorts,” Hostin said.

Hughes did not stand down to Hostin’s words.

“I don’t think there’s any evidence I’ve been co-opted by anyone, and I think that’s an ad-hominem tactic people use to not address the important conversations we’re having here … No one is paying me to say what I’m saying. I’m saying it because I feel it.”

Hughes admitted he was not familiar with Hostin and wasn’t expecting that kind of hostility from her.

“I didn’t know who Sunny Hostin was. I actually still really don’t know. So I wasn’t expecting necessarily for her to try to ambush me in that way, and attack my character in that way.”
