He has some serious baggage:
He resigned as chief executive of Columbia/HCA in 1997, amid a controversy over the company’s business and Medicare billing practices; the company ultimately admitted to fourteen felonies and agreed to pay the federal government over $600 million, which was the largest fraud settlement in US history. Scott was not implicated and no charges were levelled against him personally.[3][4][5][6][7] Scott later became a venture capitalist.
Scott announced his intention to run for governor of Florida, in 2010. He defeated Bill McCollum in the Republican primary election and defeated Democratic nominee Alex Sink in a close race in the general election, spending roughly $75 million of his own money in the process.[8] In 2014, he won re-election over former Republican turned Democratic challenger, former governor Charlie Crist and others.
Scott is a good guy and GREAT Governor of Florida (nobody starved to death on his watch) , but is probably too polarizing to run with Trump.
Never know though, Trump has to pick somebody, and it seems he has said too much negative stuff about Cruz for him to ask him to be VP.
Scott was targeted by the Clinton justice dept because he was an opponent of Hillarycare. Trump won’t like him any more than Hillary.
