Sen. Tim Scott Files to Run for President

Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina filed paperwork Friday to enter the 2024 Republican presidential race, testing whether a more optimistic vision of America’s future can resonate with GOP voters who have elevated partisan brawlers in recent years.

The Senate's only Black Republican has made his grandfather’s work in the cotton fields of the Deep South a bedrock of his political identity. Yet Scott rejects the notion that racism remains a powerful force in society, and he has cast his candidacy and rise from generational poverty as the realization of a dream only possible in America.

He is scheduled to make a formal announcement Monday at Charleston Southern University, a private Baptist college and Scott’s alma mater, in his hometown of North Charleston.

“American families are starving for hope. We need to have faith. Faith in God, faith in each other, and faith in America.”

And it is obvious that bromide translates into faith in Tim Scott, seeing he was the perceptive genius who made the observation, comment, etc.

No. Got to come up with something more original, which he cannot.

I disagree. He wasn’t exactly one of Trump loyal defenders in the Senate. He’d be less of a backstabber than Pence but that is not saying much.

No, No and No.
He is black first then American. He can’t handle the attention everytime the liberals fire up the racism machine when something racial takes place and they stick a microphone in his face. Too gullible to see how he is being used and always quick to buy into we are all racist gimmick just to suck up attention.
Nice guy, but doesn’t have the political acumen for president, just like Carson, people made a fortune on him getting him to run cause he was a black guy that made a cute little speech one time but proved to be dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to politics. Still got his card though if I ever need brain surgery.

That’s a no for me, he’s a rino. And the same applies to Chris Christie who is going to announce his run.

He would make a good VP for Trump.


Yeah, I guess Pence has to pass the knife to someone.

I like him.

He is a Biblical Christian.

Now watch the demented Trumpeteers tear him apart!

Don’t worry, Tim. Just remember Daniel in the Lion’s Den!

Still waiting for an apology from Timmy & Linda for their certification on January 7th of the undeniable stolen 2020 Presidential election.

Is he still a virgin? If he can’t tame a woman, he has no business running the country. If you haven’t ridden the Shetland ponies on the carousel at the fair, you have no business getting on a bucking bronco.
