Sunny Hostin is clapping back at TikTok creators who consider themselves “experts” on certain topics.

On this morning’s episode of The View, the ladies discussed Gen Z’s growing distrust in government institutions. Hostin, who is raising two Gen Z kids of her own, speculated why the younger generations might be questioning their political leaders.

“I see that they question everything. I think that a significant part of the reason that they question everything is because everyone is an expert on TikTok,” she said. “They think that their Google JD is the equivalent of my 30+ years of being a barred attorney.”

“I think part of it is that and I think part of it is fake news and the misinformation that is prolific everywhere,” Hostin added.

Alyssa Farah Griffin, for her part, understood why the generation under her would be “widely distrustful in institutions.”

“They came up in the COVID pandemic era of lockdowns,” she said. “They came up when they were being told information that said one thing. They were isolated, separated from their peers. They also grew up in the age that they always had cell phones and they always had social media.”

“For all the traumas millennials went through, I am so grateful I didn’t have to grow up with an algorithm that’s meant to make me radicalized and hate people around me or to feel isolated and bad about myself,” she continued. “It’s a very hard time to be a young person in this country.”

The former White House staffer also pointed fingers at the polarizing political climate for causing distrust among young people who have “only lived in the politics of division.”

“Most of them were kids when Obama was president. They don’t even remember George W. Bush,” she said. “So they haven’t seen normal politics. They haven’t seen it modeled. So why should we expect them to trust our institutions or to trust our leaders?”

The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
