ABC’s The View co-hosts had a fiery exchange while discussing school choice and President Trump’s impact. Sunny Hostin criticized the voucher system, arguing it diverts funds from public schools serving low-income students to benefit wealthier families already attending private schools.
She cited a 2020 study showing that many voucher programs lack teaching standards.
Alyssa Farah Griffin challenged Hostin’s claims and argued that school choice empowers parents, especially in underperforming districts. The two talked over each other until Whoopi Goldberg cut to commercial, saying the conversation had become unintelligible.
After the break, Joy Behar admitted, “We hate that [Trump] won.” Hostin insisted vouchers don’t help student performance, while Griffin shared her work in Congress supporting school choice. Tension remained high as the panel continued to clash over equity and education policy.
