This snippet from The View is ... extraordinary. In a brief and incoherent comment, co-host Sunny Hostin manages to blame House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., for President Trump's bigoted tweets about Rep. Ilhan Omar and possibly three other far-left members of Congress.

The basic argument — and no, it's not coherent — is that Pelosi, through her gross racial insensitivity, caused the recent public disagreement with these members, thus empowering Trump to attack them. "I don't think she's racist," Hostin said, just before going on to call her racist without using the word.

I don't think she's racist. My point is that when you do lob it back to four freshman congresswomen who are women of color, you must acknowledge the fact that they are seen as women of color and their experience is going to be different. And that is why I think, when Donald Trump first tweeted out about these women, he said, 'Nancy Pelosi I'm sure will buy your ticket out of here.' So he connected the two, and she I think was cognizant of that nuance.

The insinuation here is that it is morally wrong to be in a disagreement with these specific members of Congress, even just to be on the wrong end of their malicious false accusations, just because they're female and nonwhite and have different experiences. It's every bit as dumb as it sounds.

First of all, no one is to blame for Trump's tweets but Trump himself. Yes, Trump can be expected to try to take advantage of any friction among Democrats. No, Pelosi can't be blamed for trying to manage her caucus if that causes some friction — after all, she is the House Democrats' nominal leader, responsible for protecting her party's majority.

Second, Pelosi was entirely in the right in her dispute with her caucus communists. If freshman Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Rashida Tlaib, or Ayanna Pressley feel singled out over her admonition to stop tweeting out House Democrats' dirty laundry and attacking their Democratic colleagues on social media, then maybe it's because their social media behavior is endangering the House Democratic majority. There's a reason freshmen, all freshmen, do well to keep a low profile, at least at first. Those brand new to Washington lack experience and are unlikely to understand the potential consequences of their actions, not only for themselves but for others as well. Consider how Ocasio-Cortez humiliated every single Democratic senator running for president with her Green New Deal fiasco. For all we know, Trump will be running ads about that against Sen. Elizabeth Warren next September.

But the worst part of all is that it was these freshmen chose to make this a public dispute. They took on the most powerful Democrat in Washington when they might have just had a discreet closed-door fight inside the family. And when they got slapped on the wrist, they turned around like little snowflakes and did what comes naturally today to progressive Left youngsters on campus: they tried to settle the fight in their own favor by lobbing a false accusation of racism, and sexism, at the first female speaker of the House in U.S. history.

And let there be no hairsplitting about that last bit: They literally accused her of targeting them because they are "women of color." That's an accusation of both racism and of sexism, even if it's preceded by weasel words like "I don't think she's racist but ..."

No matter how much Democrats deserve the monster they've created, it's impossible to watch this fight and not take Pelosi's side. What these social justice warriors are doing to her is simply unjust. Whatever she is, Pelosi is not a sexist, and I highly doubt that she's a racist, at least not by any definition that normal, non-woke people use.

There is no evidence that Pelosi targeted these members for anything but their own idiocy, and it's even more ludicrous to assign even the slightest blame to her for what Trump said.

The House Soviet caucus really ought to apologize to Pelosi in public for what they've already said and done to their party, but I'd almost sooner expect an apology from Trump himself.
