It's the difference in the attention they got from the hierarchy of the party. The three you mentioned actually had influence with the politicians. I doubt (although since I don't listen to her or politicians, I don't know) that Hostin has any influence with anyone but her audience.

I'd never even heard of Hostin until Ramrouser's mention of her.
My wife used to watch The View 7-8 years ago when I couldn't help but hear it occasionally.

And has yet to concede. According to him and his followers he never lost the 2020 election, it was stolen from him by Democrats. History teachers used to point out that the 1800 presidential election was historic because it was the first time that one political party - the Federalists - lost a presidential election and another party - Jeffersonian Republicans - won one. And yet the transfer of power was peaceful, and so it set a precedent in America for the peaceful transfer of power from one party to another that more or less held until 2020. If you lost an election, even a very close one, you conceded gracefully and you or your party tried again four years later.
Until Trump, that is. He never conceded, falsely claimed the election was stolen, and instigated a violent riot to prevent the other party from certifying the electoral college vote and taking office. And yet his supporters have already relegated this into a minor incident that signified nothing. Somewhere John Adams is rolling in his grave - based on Trump's actions maybe he should never have surrendered the White House to Thomas Jefferson!

+1. Rush Limbaugh was glowingly described in the 1990s by National Review as the "Leader of the Opposition" to President Clinton, and was rewarded with Trump giving him the Presidential Medal of Freedom before he died (which is disgusting, but that's a separate thread). This lady has no influence in the Democratic Party and is barely known outside of that stupid show. That's a pretty damn big difference.

Charitable interpretation? It’s literally what she said verbatim. Here’s the quote with a little more around it —
“You had Condoleezza Rice, I believe, on this very show saying, you know, we need to move on from January 6. I say, no, you don't move on because January 6 was an atrocity. It was one of the worst moments in American history.
“And when you when you think about the worst moments in American history, you know, like World War Two, things that happened, you know, like the Holocaust, chattel slavery, we need to never forget because past becomes prologue.”

Lots of Dem politicians go on the show, including Biden and Kamala. So, it has an audience.

Remember that one time when Trump slippedadmitted he lost the 2020 election?
Trump acknowledges losing the 2020 election 'by a whisker'
The former president admitted during a podcast appearance that he did not win the election against Biden, while saying later that it "was a fraud."

And no influence. Comparing her to somebody like Rush or Glenn Beck or Tucker Carlson when they were in their prime is just absurd, imo.

Claims she was trying to hold back the crowd.
“And there was actually someone else that was killed also, a MAGA Person, but people don’t give it 100% credibility, I’m going to find out about it, we’re going to find out, but Ashli Babbit was killed. She was SHOT. She should’ve never been shot. She was shot for no reason whatsoever, in fact they say that she was trying to hold back the crowd. And the crowd was made up of a lot of different people, so we’ll see…”

If anyone other than AB can be given blame for her death, it’s Donald Trump.
He will gladly send any and all of his supporters to the grave if it helps him. Or in this case, even if it doesn’t help him.

I hate this motherfucker so much. I wake up every day hoping for the news of his passing. If you voted for this piece of shit then you can take a big step back and go fuck your own face. That woman was a fucking traitor and she got what she had coming to her. If it were up to me, several of the J6 traitors would be hanged for treason. Fucking country full of morons. We had a good run, folks. I got the graham crackers. Anyone got the marshmalllows and chocolate? Fuck Trump.

"... Four years after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, the president-elect said he is looking at potential pardons for participants charged in the riot, including those charged with violent offenses.
“People that were doing some bad things weren’t prosecuted, and people that didn’t even walk into the building are in jail right now,” he said. “So we’ll be looking at the whole thing, but I’ll be making major pardons.” ..."

“Three senior U.S. Justice Department officials committed misconduct in the final months of Donald Trump’s first presidency by leaking details about a non-public investigation, a move that may have been intended to sway the 2020 election, the department's internal watchdog concluded in a new report.
Reuters obtained the December report by Inspector General Michael Horowitz through a public records request. The report found the officials improperly shared details with two media outlets about the department's plans to collect data on COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes located in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan, four states with Democratic governors who had come under fire for their handling of the pandemic.
…
The leak “will be our last play on them before the election but it’s a big one,” one of the officials wrote in a text obtained by investigators.
The report did not identify the employees, though one of them worked in the Justice Department's public affairs office. They no longer work at the department, according to the inspector general's office.
"The conduct of these senior officials raised serious questions about the partisan political motivation for their actions in proximity to the 2020 election," Horowitz wrote.
… Lisa Gilbert, the co-president of the nonprofit Public Citizen, said the politically motivated behavior described in the report represents the same type of conduct that Trump and his allies have alleged the Justice Department under President Joe Biden engaged in.
"They accused those prosecuting the former president for his crimes around election denialism and the insurrection as partisan, and simultaneously, they were doing things like this," she said. …”
