Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., suggested Thursday that his Republican colleagues may be "holding back" on endorsing a candidate for president because they are waiting for Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C, to officially jump in the race.
“I think Tim Scott would be a great person. Look, he’s intelligent. He gets it. He works well with people. He’s finding a path forward that would unite, I think, Republicans and independents, which is what we need to gain back the White House,” Rounds told NBC News in an interview in the Capitol.
“A lot of us that are holding back on looking at anybody else until Tim makes up his mind,” Rounds added. “And then once he’s made his decision at that point, then a lot of us would really like to see him succeed.”
Scott, who launched an exploratory committee last month, is expected to jump into the race this month, teasing a "major announcement on May 22. So far, 10 GOP senators have weighed in on the presidential race, all of them endorsing former President Donald Trump.
Rounds also criticized former Trump, suggesting lawmakers who want to unite the party may be looking for a Trump alternative in 2024. Rounds has frequently criticized the former president...

“The vast majority of us that were here on Jan. 6 would clearly disagree with the approach that he has in that regard,” Rounds said. “So there are some things that we agreed with, but there are a number of areas where we would have disagreements.”
“In terms of what it does for many of us that are looking to unite the party, we’re still looking," Rounds later added. "We believe that there are individuals out there that want to unite the party, and that’s what we’re looking forward to."

These senators continue to prove just how brain dead and useless they truly are.
Tim Scott has a zero chance of becoming POTUS.
.
See Michael Steele.
They embraced Steele for the same reason
Just that simple.
.
“Unite the party” means “Unite the party under RINOism”.
“He’s finding a path forward that would unite...”
Or in other words, forget MAGA.
The most accurate word to discribe Scott is milquetoast, whcih is what the globalists pant for.
Or JC Watts.
He was pushed as the future of the party for years during the GWB era.
Then went away and now he is back to being a Marxist Democrat.
HAHAHAHAHAH !!! What a bunch if VIRTUE SIGNALLING! Tim Scott...nice Sen....nothing more.
PUKE!!! Tell ROUNDS to read that!
THAT! Steele also PATHETIC!
I LOVE BYRON DONALDS!!!! HE I COULD RALLY AROUND!!
Chris Christie
Liz Cheney
Mike Pence
Nikki Haley
Gov. Ron DeSantis
Ramaswamy
Sen. Tim Scott
Those RINOs can endorse whoever they want. No chance I will vote for Mitch’s lapdog because he is black.
My big fear is that either Trump or DeSantis are screwed out of the election by farming the votes of the visitors we have coming over our border while we here at FR point the finger at each other about how our chosen candidate screwed up.
Another non starter distraction being pushed by deep state RINO’s. Its not going to happen but letting all these snakes unmask themselves is a good thing.
At the moment our primary choice is President Trump. All of the others currently announced our distractions at best, not even qualified in several cases. If DeSantis decides to run, that would give us to viable choices. Until he does, it’s simply Trump, all Trump. We’re along for the ride, whether we like it or not.
He’s a RINO nothing.
Well you’re more right than you likely know. We are just along for the ride. I’m pretty sure I know the destination I’m just not sure of all the stops along the way. 😏
Too many here prefer intra-squad fighting over fighting the actual opposition.
“Democrats are not careful about pushing black candidates and in fact, they seek the black and Hispanic candidates.”
Expect a new and pretty face on the Democrat ticket.
“...they are waiting for Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C, to officially jump in the race.”
Byron Donalds (R-FL) would be a far better choice. He was a star during the CNN debate that followed Trump’s CNN appearance in New Hampshire.
Tim Scott? Really? He’ll probably poll in single digits.
