Tim Scott drives liberals crazy. The black senator from South Carolina doesn’t fit the left’s narrative about what a conservative should look like, and the mainstream media often try to criticize or trip up the lawmaker.
That’s exactly what happened on MSNBC, where host Thomas Roberts tried to imply that Scott doesn’t care about the poor.
“You say you’re concerned about kids that are growing up in the wrong zip code and, like yourself, had a tough start on the way out,” said Roberts.
“But if we look at agencies that are following some of your voting records, they have concern. And the NAACP has given you an ‘F’ on their annual scorecard.”
Tim Scott turned the question right back at the liberal journalist, and challenged him about how well liberalism has worked for black communities.

Beautiful. I love Senator Scott.
Tim Scott is a good man and very sharp cookie, and was thoroughly underestimated by the reporter. South Carolina made a good decision when it elected him.
