"Donald Trump's popularity continues to increase" -- Tim Scott at CNN on Trump getting booed at the Libertarian National Convention







Can somebody please tell me why Tim Scott is on these Sunday shows almost weekly?! They need to rename these shows “Sundays With Mushmouth.”

He probably thinks that if he's enough of a servile jellyfish Trump will choose him as his running mate.

Republicans should hang their collective heads in embarassment for the kinds of wankers and ASS-kissers they put up as so-called "leaders"

I agree with this comment.



That is a dangerous comment from Tim Scott. All he had to do was to express confidence
in our free and fair elections and that he will uphold his constitutional duty by certifying the winner of the election.

Then he could’ve added by saying that he’s confident that Trump will win.

Words matter. We have been warned.

If Scott weren't black, he would just be another low-vote-count losing Republican primary candidate, basically ignored by the media. At least that's what it feels like. Scott's not going to get the Veep nod, imo. I also don't see him as Trump's combination campaign manager and identity stalking horse in the pattern of Kellyanne Conway. I think Scott will speak at the Trump convention...tops.

Now there's an oxymoron.

In essence, it's the idea that saying something makes it true.

In other words, bullshit.
