South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, who announced his Republican presidential primary bid on Monday, has responded to racially charged attacks by panelists on ABC's "The View."

Scott, who is the first Black senator elected in the South since Reconstruction, said that the best way to disprove their lies is through action.

On the left-leaning talk show, "The View," host Whoopi Goldberg suggested that Scott has "Clarence Thomas syndrome." Goldberg's co-host Sunny Hostin further claimed that one of Scott's "issues" is that he believes because he "made it" coming from an impoverished Black family in the South, "everyone can make it."

Scott told Fox News that Hostin had it backward when she claimed his story is "the exception, not the rule." He said that he is the rule, not the exception, in that every American child matriculating through a failing public school can look to left-wing teachers unions as the reason they are not getting a proper education.

"Every parent who wants a choice. Look to the Republican Party. Look to the GOP, but more importantly, look at Americans, African-Americans, Hispanic Americans – the majority of Americans all agree on school choice," he said.

Scott said the one thing in the way of providing children of all races a substantive education is "the radical left." He further cited how his grandfather was illiterate and worked in cotton fields, but was very wise in that he instilled in his grandson the mantra that "you can be bitter or better, but you can't be both."

Scott said that there is "no question my life disproves the lies of the radical left" and their "culture of victimhood is eating away at the soul of America." He added that America is a story of evolution, and that too many schools are indoctrinating children instead of educating them.

Gowdy, a fellow South Carolinian, remarked that Hostin seems to have "made it" just as well, because she is a former federal prosecutor who also landed her current spot on a nationally-televised talk show. He riffed that Scott must "scare the daylights out of the left" because of how many attacks and how many different facets of attacks the senator has endured in the few days since his campaign launched.

In response to the overall tenor of response from his critics, Scott said, "not on my watch. Let's tell the whole story of America rising."
