While Senator Tim Scott is a good man who came from humble beginnings, he, like Trey Gowdy, has been somewhat unremarkable during his 9 years in office. What the out-of-touch former lawmaker doesn’t understand is that no amount of praise by the former US Congressman, who walked away from the fight in DC to go back into private practice and appear as a regular host on Fox News, is going to help Tim Scott win the votes of millions of Americans who are sick and tired of being poor and pummeled by the radical left’s agenda.
So, how important is it for a Republican presidential candidate to be a “nice guy,” as opposed to a “fighter,” like Trump, as Trey Gowdy not-so-covertly references him in comparison to Sen. Scott? Does Gowdy really believe that Scott’s endorsements of RINOs for reelection will be forgotten in 2 years?
Watch Gowdy’s interview with the beaming Senator Tim Scott here:
How little respect must the out-of-touch Gowdy have for voters that he sincerely believes Scott’s mom wanting him to be a pastor and Gowdy wanting him to run for governor in S. Carolina is enough to qualify him to become America’s next president? Republicans have had their share of “nice guys” running for President. History will not be kind to Mitt Romney, one of the “nicest” guys to run for President, who in 2012, had Barack Obama on the ropes after their first debate and then suddenly conceded the race to him. So unlikeable is Utah Senator Mitt Romney with Republicans that it’s very possible the devout Mormon could lose his bid for re-election in a Mormon-dominated state.
America is facing the worst ideological crisis in our nation’s history. The unrestricted killing of babies is the carrot Democrats plan to use to bring their voters to the polls, a close second to protecting the Marxist indoctrination of our youth. It’s great that Senator Tim Scott is a “nice guy” who smiles a lot and comes from humble beginnings, but for most moms (myself included) we want to see a fighter in the role of President, and so far, there isn’t a single politician alive who has worked harder than President Trump to fight for the soul of our nation.
Both of the candidates he is talking about have records of anti 2A… so how about not just no.
As they say in Texas “ all hat and no cattle “
Boy Gowdy is less and less impressive every day.
Bingo. Also he showed up in various states “ preaching what sounds good “ but in the end he won’t deliver supporting other Rinos.
Excellent commentary.
Biden the “ moderate” a key example of candidate vs office holder.
Trump delivers
So, he will be the next ‘gracious loser’?
Gowdy is dead to me. What a useless little twit.
I wonder what the GOP establishment is going to do when the Trump voters check out of the system? If they believe that Trump voters - call them 30% of the non-fraud electorate just off the top of my head - are going to stay in the system and just vote for more Bushies, McCains and Romneys if the elites recapture the party, I think they might get a funny (well, it will be to me anyway) surprise.
Perhaps they would be happy with 100 House seats and 20 Senators maybe that’s the club they want. That’s all fine with me anyway…I’ve always thought that the best way to try and repair America (back when I still thought it STILL could be repaired) was to kill the Republican Party first. That’d get the Democrats’ cover-party out of the way.
That Trump 30% or so are going to mostly check out of the system entirely. I know in my own family, if it’s just elitist global Republicans vs. Marxist global Democrats, we aren’t participating. (And I’m not selling them my ballots to harvest for a six pack either.)
If Trump is on the ballot in ‘24 I will vote. If not, I’m never voting again. And I suspect way more than enough of that Trump cohort are the same. They don’t want Christian Nationalists around anyway. I’m more than happy to accommodate their wish and let them deal with the outcome of that.
Tragic. I had hopes for Tim Scott, but anyone that supports ULTRA-RINO Murkowski is dead to me.
We are continuously amazed how far the deep state rabbit hole goes.
I like Tim - he is a smart guy- but the problem is, he still lacks discernment in several areas, including his endorsements....
Many of us feel this way. I have quite had my fill of the GOPe stabbing us in the back. They are dead to me. I think what they did in AK was final nail. Time to do what one can to protect what you have and focus on your zip code. My fear is for the kids. They are going to get it and hard.
I will not vote for Mitch McConnell’s butt boy. I will stay home.
FAUX NEWS IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. They used to pretend to be our friend but not anymore. They don’t bother because keeping their top ratings is a function of the total disintegration of any semblance of honesty on CNN NSNBC and the rest - including Newmax.
Faux News is run by the scumbags of the Murdoch family that haste Trump, hate us and hate America in that order.
Fox will be airing “reports” like this on a daily basis beginning next year.
I question my color adjustment, he looks pasty White.
Never promote a Senator to President.
It goes for both parties.
AMEN!
This cannot be said often enough.
One South Carolina windbag RINO, heaping praise on another South Carolina RINO. Throw in Linda Graham and you have the trifecta of RINO politicians at their finest, which ain’t much.
Hard pass in senator Scott, he’s just another limp wristed, liberal Bush Republican BS peddler. If you FR country club Party pukes nominate someone like this when you get your asses royally kicked and wonder why, look in the mirror.
