Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) is “hopeful” that he can muscle police reform legislation through Congress that will satiate Black Lives Matter (BLM) terrorists.
Scott has become the poster child for a Republican establishment that is desperate to capitulate to Democrats. He echoes talking points about systemic racism, the need for progressive reforms, and talks negatively of the founding-era patriots who built this nation.
“One of the reasons why I’m hopeful is because, in a way, this time, my friends on the left aren’t looking for the issue; they’re looking for a solution,” Scott said during a recent appearance on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
“And the things that I offered last year are more popular this year. That gives me reasons to be hopeful,” he said to interviewer John Dickerson.
Scott is willing to rip away qualified immunity, which would open up cops to frivolous lawsuits from a racial grievance industry that has shown a willingness to lie and jeopardize public safety to reap the profits.

Good luck Tim, but you first mistake is believing the Dems want to work with Republicans.
Police reform is disbanding the DHS and returning control to local levels.
Stopped reading there. I don't care about the color of your skin. If you're feeding these groups, you're part of the problem. This is a terrorist organization with an organizational intent to increase racial division in this country, not reduce it.
Mitch McConnell said “he is the future of the Republican party”.
It will be a future without me. I want no part of it.
Absolutely! Scott has also said he is going to meet with George Floyd’s family. He is groveling to the mob, and still they call him Uncle Tim. There is no appeasing these leftist thugs.
That’s a mistake Tim.
“police reform”?
Why?
He already did.
Instead of police reform, why not inner city reform? Go check the crime rate in any inner city. There is a reason 6% of the population commits over 50% of all murders. Police are like everyone else, they just want to draw their paychecks and go home, if you don’t put them in a position to make mistakes, most won’t. BLM police reform means making everyone’s life less safe.
Typical GOPe crap, so glad to be done with this political party.
Agreed! The future of the Republican Party better be the people who booed Romney off the stage, or I want nothing to do with it.
There is no satiating them.
Therein lies the problem: Thinking you can satisfy those creeps.
This is the RINO that said he KNOWS Biden is a good man... Suckers like him Mia Love and Nikki Haley had Freepers fooled but I could tell even early on.
This was the big “conservative” black hope. Just another Uniparty (R) hack. The Uniparty’s big tent full of Judases will save us in ‘22, or so I’m told.
Finally! A republican willing to reach across the aisle.
Republicans definition of “uniting” with Democrats, is rolling over for them. When Republicans “negotiate” with Democrats, it ends up costing us money. Tim, go crawl back into the hole you dug for yourself on January 6th. You, and the rest of your weak-kneed ilk have no standing with true Conservatives.
BLM is a confessed Communist organization. Run away!
