Former Georgia lawmaker Stacey Abrams told "The View" on Thursday that President Trump wouldn't rename military bases because he wants to hold up Confederate figures and others who engaged in what she called domestic terrorism. "The View" co-host Joy Behar had asked Abrams about the White House's decision not to rename military bases named after Confederate figures. Abrams added that Trump "and his ilk" were "trying to turn our identities into weapons against us, instead of seeing it as ways to serve us." Before Abrams' interview, Behar called Trump a "domestic terrorist" but walked it back after being prompted by co-host Whoopi Goldberg. Trump had accused Washington state of not doing enough to counter "domestic terrorists" in Seattle, a label "The View" hosts said was inappropriate.
