Sunny Hostin has been roasted online after her comments on The View about the total solar eclipse – which was witnessed in the U.S., Canada and Mexico on Monday, April 8th – being caused by climate change went viral.

The 55-year-old The View co-host made the comments while discussing the 4.8 magnitude earthquake that was felt across New York and New Jersey last weekend, and said: “Our wonderful make-up artist, when the earthquake was happening, she put her coat on. She was like, Jesus is coming, I’m out, I’m leaving. We’ve got a solar eclipse, we’ve got an earthquake… also, I learned that cicadas are coming for the first time in 100 years. All those things together would maybe lead one to believe that either climate change exists or something is going on.”

Joy Behar And Whoopi Goldberg Try To Correct Sunny Hostin

Sunny’s co-hosts Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg immediately tried to correct her, with Behar saying: ‘Earthquakes are not at the mercy of climate change. It’s underground.”

Goldberg added: ”And the eclipse, they’ve known about the eclipse coming because eclipses happen, and they actually can say when these things are going to happen. All these folks who are saying it’s a sign from God, God doesn’t give you a warning. The cicadas come, we have them every 17 years. There are some we get every 20-some-odd years. They go under and come back up.”

Social Media Reactions

Hostin was unsurprisingly trolled online for her comments. "Sunny Hostin is a certified idiot. Climate change doesn't cause an eclipse," slammed one viewer on X. "Sunny Hostin [is] a moron," added another, as a third said: "Sunny Hostin actually said, with a straight face, that the solar eclipse is possibly the result of climate change. How does someone this stupid make it on network TV?"

"The View's Sunny Hostin suggests that Earthquakes and the solar eclipse are caused by… climate change. She never claimed to be a Mensa genius," quipped another, as someone else said: Sunny Hostin, probably the dumbest person on TV. Change my mind. #TheView #SolarEclipse2024." "Laughable! Sunny Hostin blames the solar eclipse and earthquakes on "climate change! You can't make this up!" exclaimed another X user.

"Just when you think Sunny Hostin can't get anymore stupid, she says climate change caused the eclipse," criticized another X user. "Didn't Sunny Hostin say earthquakes, eclipses were climate change! And supposedly she's educated. Ok girl," commented another.

"Sunny Hostin thinks the eclipse is climate change. Rep Sheila Jackson Lee thinks the moon is a planet made of gas. When will America find intelligent life on this planet?" asked another X user, as someone else said: "To say that Sunny is as dumb as a post is insulting to a post." Ouch!
