Tim Scott, the GOP’s token-Black Senator is at it again. According to his latest of many bootlicked statements, the South Carolinian hints he would like to be Trumps’ 2024 V.P. selection.
Tim Scott is beloved by the right.
In a move Scott clearly hasn’t thought out, he wants a seat at the table where Mike Pence once sat. Yet, when Pence’s hot seat became scorching, Trump and his maniacal rioters flipped on him for not overturning the 2020 election. They erected a gallows and noose to hang Mike Pence. If Trump and his klan will hang a White man, what the hell does Tim Scott think they’ll do to his milk-dud-headed ass?
If Trump remains free and indeed chooses Scott, it would behoove the Palmetto state Senator to support the current Emmett Till Antilynching Act now just in case things get a little coup-ish again.
Trump just won the ‘2024 CPAC straw poll’ by far.
Asked by Fox News if he would consider joining a Trump ticket in 2024, Scott replied, “Everybody wants to be on President Trump’s bandwagon, without any question.” In GOP circles that statement is absolutely 100% true. Nothing the former President said or did went far enough for his rabid supporters and cowardly politicians to lose an ounce of loyalty for Trump, including Tim Scott.
While Governors like Florida’s Ron DeSantis use Trump’s playbook to ascend the political ladder, Senator Scott refuses to be left behind.
On Sunday, Scott told Fox News, “One of the things that I said to the president is he gets to decide the future of our party and our country because he is still the loudest voice.” He still refers to Trump as “President.” Sad.
Tim Scott is a whole sunken place.
Even still, the likelihood of the Ebony and Orange pairing seems unlikely, with the ongoing war in Ukraine, they’ve already shown differences in philosophy. While Trump has praised Putin for the invasion, Scott has sharply denounced the war effort. As a man with more drama than Euphoria, Trump would rue the day he tapped Tim Scott as V.P.
