Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) is finding success wooing his Senate GOP colleagues to his side for a possible 2024 presidential run, with a number of his fellow senators personally encouraging him to get in the race.
Of roughly a dozen Senate Republicans The Hill interviewed, three — Sens. John Thune (S.D.), Mike Rounds (S.D.) and John Cornyn (Texas) — said they have outright encouraged Scott to run for the White House, while two others — Sens. Kevin Cramer (N.D.) and Shelley Moore Capito (W.Va.) said they’ve talked with him behind closed doors about his potential run. Almost every other senator spoke glowingly of the South Carolina Republican and indicated they hope he runs or believe he would make a top-level candidate.
“I think he’d be a great candidate. I’m excited about it. I’ve been encouraging him,” Thune told The Hill. “I think he’s getting a lot of encouragement from his colleagues. He’s really well thought of and respected and I think he’d be a really interesting candidate for president, and in a field that kind of could be fairly open.”

Run Tim, and then when you crash and burn because you’re a RINO, you can blame it all on racism.

Scott is an establishment nose picker. He has the same odds of winning the nomination as Jeb Bush. ZERO, NIL and NONE!

“Do these RINO Senators ever go home from Washington and talk to normal people?”
Every five years these Senators go home to talk to the “common folks.” They make promises for the future, slam the Democrats as Leftists and hustle the people for campaign funds. Once the elections are over, it is back to the Swamp to wait another five years to make promises that won’t be kept.

It’s very odd that both SC Senators are life-long bachelors, although I respect that choice over the multi-married Trump.

Hell no! He’d be lucky to get 0.05 % of the vote.

The RINO idiots are looking for someone, anyone, who can beat Trump and DeSantis.

GOP ESTABLISHMENT GAME PLAN...
Rerun of 2016 campaign. Turn the debates into a clown show where everyone attacks President Trump.
