1. After reading many press articles and quotes, I’ve come to the conclusion Tim Scott is an idiot.
2. He’s a RINO
3. The GOP-e, in a short sighted move akin to making Michael Steele head of the GOP, has selected Scott as the next candidate for President, based on his skin color alone.
There’s a Politico interview on Facebook where Scott is easily manipulated into blaming Trump for the Good Riots and any attempts to quell those “good” Riots.

Scott is conservative, right?
