back in the 1980s. Once in a blue moon I would agree with him, but then he would go back to ivory tower. Anyway, I think it's going to be Tim Scott. Old white Republicans like my dad love him. And if they split the black vote, that would make it very hard for us to win. But the GOP is still dealing with Trump's vanity tour. All that tension we see on McConnell's face is a result of trying to get his party to listen to some sense. But the people with the money are backing Scott. Let's hope they don't get back to their senses before the Republican Convention.
