Timmy, Tim, Tim....!

Now he's in.

Back in 2019, there were three Black senators. 

Cory Booker of New Jersey, Kamala Harris of California and this Republican senator.

In 2019, Booker and Harris ran for president. Both dropped out the race before the Iowa Caucus. Harris would end up becoming vice presidential nominee for Joe Biden. In 2020, Biden won and Harris became the first woman, first African American and first Asian American to be elected. 

Currently, Harris is the current Vice President of the United States.

She, Booker and Sen. Raphael Warnock (R-GA) call him a friend. They strongly disagree with his politics and his lack of self awareness.

South Carolina senator is filing paperwork to run for the Republican nomination. He will expect a fury of attacks from Washed Up 45, former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley and of course Black America.

Timothy Eugene Scott is now officially joining in the cabal of Republican candidates seeking to be the nominee for 2024. But like with Haley, former Arkansas governor Asa Hutchison, Larry Elder and Vivek Ramaswamy, they are going to be drowned out by Washed Up 45 and the non stop drivel between him and expecting candidate Florida governor Ron DeSantis.

On Friday, Scott placed his paperwork in with the Federal Election Commission and is expected to formally join this.

He is a far right Republican. He came as the first African American Republican to be elected since moderate Edward Brooke of Massachusetts. He was a former U.S. House Member for one term before Haley chose him to be the senator after white nationalist senator Jim DeMitt left to lobby for far right activists. He is currently serving as a senator.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) ran in 2016 miserably.

Scott is one of 11 African-Americans to have served in the U.S. Senate, and the first to have served in both chambers of Congress. He is the seventh African-American elected to the Senate and the fourth from the Republican Party. He is the first African-American senator from South Carolina, the first African-American senator to be elected from the Southern United States since 1881 (four years after the end of Reconstruction), and the first African-American Republican to serve in the Senate since Edward Brooke departed in 1979.

Going to be a tough road for Tim Scott.

Scott wants to call himself the color blind candidate. He is trying to undermine Biden by saying the president is emboldened by grievances. 

Bud Light and Disney would like a call.

“If you wanted a blueprint to ruin America, you’d keep doing exactly what Joe Biden has let the far left do to our country for the past two years,” he said. “Tell every white kid they’re oppressors. Tell Black and brown kids their destiny is grievance, not greatness.”

He easily won reelection last year and had long said his current term, which runs through 2029, would be his last.

As a senator, Scott has been a go-to Republican voice on issues including policing and was the GOP’s chief negotiator on legislation that ultimately stalled in 2021. He has also spoken on the Senate floor about his personal experiences as a Black man in America.

“I have felt the anger, the frustration, the sadness and the humiliation that comes with feeling like you’re being targeted for nothing more than just being yourself,” Scott said in 2016, recounting how he was pulled over seven times in a year. He was once stopped by a U.S. Capitol Police officer who recognized the Senate lapel pin that Scott was wearing — but did not recognize Scott.

Scott rejects the notion that the country is inherently racist and has repudiated the teaching of critical race theory, an academic framework that presents the idea that the nation’s institutions maintain the dominance of white people.

“Hear me clearly: America is not a racist country,” Scott said. “It’s backwards to fight discrimination with different types of discrimination. And it’s wrong to try to use our painful past to dishonestly shut down debates in the present.”

Scott believes parents should have more oversight over what their kids learn in public schools about race, sexual orientation and gender identity.

Scott has twice addressed the Republican National Convention — in 2012 as a first-term congressman and in 2020 as a senator. At the last GOP convention, he praised Washed Up 45 for building “the most inclusive economy ever” and for supporting funding for historically Black colleges and universities.
