Tim Scott: Raid ‘Overreach at Best’ — ‘This Has Been a Witch Hunt for Six Years’
Breitbart ^ | 08/13/2022 | Jeff poor

Posted on 08/13/2022 10:53:03 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Friday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) warned the FBI raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home was, at minimum, “overreach,” and something he said was “devastating.”

Scott insisted the right path forward was winning in November to impanel an investigation.

And ... damn! ... he starts another term in January.

What’s this about? “Scott is running for re-election to the U.S. Senate to represent South Carolina. He is on the ballot in the general election on November 8, 2022. THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY FOR THIS OFFICE ON JUNE 14, 2022, WAS CANCELED.” (emphasis mine) Was he running un-opposed?

Just what we need... another weak-kneed wimp in the Senate with an R after his name. I about hit the ceiling when he said we need to “let it play out”. UGH.

“it is interesting that he had to chang his tune so fast.”

But he’s made up his mind about Murkowski, and he’s sticking to it. Bongino confronted him about it, and he won’t back down.

“I think he realizes which side his bread is buttered on.”

Ha! His bread sure hit the floor butter-side down.

This is very good news. It shows what the public is thinking, and Tim Scott has seen the hand writing on the wall and wants to now join in. He has shoved Mitch aside. Bwahahahahaha

He’s become a disappointment. Expected him to be bolder and not play it so safe. Still better him than a hack DemoRat in his place.

He’s backpedaling.

He previously said we should all let the FBI do what it needs to.

Yep. He put his finger in the wind and discovered that even some Democrats are appalled at the overreach and did an about-face.

He knows this has the potential to bite him in the @ss.

Now that he has been criticized for being weak on the FBI raid now he talks tough.

Tim Scott is Trey Gowdy with a deep tan.

RINO doublespeak. He's just trying to make it look as if he's in both sides at the same time. Just another politician.... He'll then play whichever card suits him at the opportune time.
