Tim Scott's Appearance on 'The View' Ends in Embarrassment Because Republicans Never Learn (Tim McRomBush)
RedState ^ | 6/5/23 | Bonchie

For reasons that are completely beyond me, newly-minted 2024 presidential candidate Tim Scott decided to go on The View on Monday. As expected, the end result was checkered at best despite Scott doing his best to get his message out as he battled five left-wing hacks being cheered on by an audience of hardcore Democrats.

I’ll start with one of the few highlights for the South Carolina senator. In it, he makes some good points about the idea that the United States is systemically racist. Naturally, Sonny Hostin was leading the charge in asserting that for the panel.

Was there anything wrong with Scott’s answer? Of course, not. Rather, the problem is that his answer won’t be what goes viral. Instead, it will be the embarrassing moments that endure, and that was exactly what the hosts and producers of The View wanted. None of this stuff happens by chance.

For example, here’s Scott getting booed for daring to push back on the woke indoctrination of children.

In another moment, Scott is seen arguing with Hostin while the stage producer comes out to tell him it’s time for a commercial break. He then complains they keep cutting to a commercial break during his answers while the other panelists mock him.

I just don’t get it. I’ve long been a proponent of starving the mainstream media of ratings, but instead, most Republicans simply refuse to learn the lesson and keep going on these biased shows that only exist to tear them down.

Nikki McRomBush or Mike McRomBush or Chris McRomBush or Asa McRomBush will be next to go on the View.

Because some consultant tells them it’s just something they HAVE to do.

Like Sarah Palin getting “interviewed” i.e. interrogated by Katie Couric.

Tim also did some odd venture into a church preacher. He’s a bad actor. He’s a Dim when a Republican seat was available. Tim’s been missing and largely silent on Biden’s corruption.

Evidently it got him free PR.

This is the reason Tim Scott is not cut out to be President.

He goes into the View where they have the home court advantage and about a million bucks of video editing equipment slice and dice his comments for their own benefit. The view hosts are professional character assassins completely unencumbered by honesty, integrity or fairness. And he expects to win a game with dice that are so heavily loaded against him. He is simply to. naive and hubristic to get the job done as President.

Contrast with Kari Lake who knows the games the media plays. She only does video interviews on her home turf where she controls the clock and the environment. She has her own cameras filming the entire interview from start to finish using various angles to expose the interviewers use of ear plugs and other props - as well as the body language ,

Why did Trump speak to Bob Woodward and Maggie Haberman?
Some Republicans think they can turn leftists around.
It doesn’t work that way.

So, so many on our side are clueless, and that is why we have lost. We watch the daily and drearily repeated kabuki shows, and think they are real life.

One of the most stale tactics used by fake patriots, the ones who hate us and despise our very existence, like Scott, is to foment attacks from the left over some totally fake and inconsequential “issue” like systemic racism.

When it happens, the clueless on our side admire the faking phony and think he is one of us, because — look! — he got attacked by the other side!

So easy to do, over and over, and so they do it over over, understanding that many, many people on our side are hopelessly gullible, and will fall for the same trick over and over.

This is why evil cabal of corruption members (like Scott) despise us. They know we will fall for the same stupid stuff over and over.

This is the way that Dems treat runaway slaves.

But unhelpful to any higher aspirations. The only time POTUS candidates had a positive with talk shows was BJ Clinton on Arsenio Hall, because truth be told, Clinton can actually play a saxophone.

The View is a firing squad targeting Republicans. The Stupid Party never learns.

Sounds to me like he killed that 3 minute answer. The other stuff is just nonsense

"I thought Scott was the one Trump praised?" He is. But he's a pantywaist. See below.

“Evidently it got him free PR.”

Yeah. You can just hear some consultant say “you know what would be great?? Going on the View! Ya gotta!”

I watched a few minutes of “Outnumbered” today and they were praising Tim Scott’s performance on “The View.”
