    Per The Times, recent Federal Election Commission (FEC) filingsshow filings "the Scott campaign made $4.3 million in payments from April 1 to June 30 to a company called Meeting Street Services L.L.C.," which "included $2.8 million for 'placed media' and more for digital fund-raising, strategy and video production." However, according to the report, the company cannot be found online, "has not been paid by any other campaign," and "its listed address, in North Charleston, S.C., is a Staples store."

    There’s no evidence of where Tim Scott’s 2024 campaign money is going: report

    The bigger problem is that he's trying to secure the presidential nomination of a majority white nationalist party.

    Even bigger problem is you’re very lost and confused.

    60s is over dude. Grow up.

    I read that yesterday and thought another rotten politician: knowing the rules, but rather than playing by them finding loopholes. They’re in both parties.

    It’s apparently not a problem for him. On the other hand, there’s no reason a black can’t be a moderate conservative, if that’s what he is. (Now, Thomas is an entirely different story.)

    I think the word you were looking for is “stupid”.

    Not black, but I don't see how. Could have certain conservative values, but not support the conservative party

    They'll definitely parade him around to show how non-racist they are, but, when the time comes in the voting both, the "dimpled chad" will go elsewhere.

    Like the other GOP candidates (except for Christie), Scott has a serious spinal problem. (Tim Scott: Donald Trump is "a good guy.")

    I doubt he’s funneling money to himself other than the “legal” ways they all do. I also doubt his polling ever hits 5%.

    Somone should tell your favorite political party the 60s are over and they lost. They keep trying to relitigate that decade and reverse their loss.

    More hateful bullcrap. It must really smell at your house.

    You post stuff like that while calling other people hateful. It's bizarre.

    How does it feel disliking half the people in your country?

    That's not what @gatorchamps960608 said. The statement was essentially that the majority of the republican party are white nationalists. The word "majority" is right there in the post. You're reacting as if the poster said all republicans were...."disliking half the people in your country." The only way you get to half the country is to suggest all of the party are that way. That was never said.

    I disagree with gatorchamps960608...I don't believe that the majority of republicans are white nationalists. I do, however, believe the overwhelming majority of white nationalists are republicans.

    Ever how many white nationalists there are, they may be enough to destroy our democracy. How? They're Trump cult sheep, that's how. Their votes plus enough votes taken away from Grandpa Joe by some third-party de facto Trump puppet, and Trump is in. Maybe not in the White House right away, rather in jail, but still in.

    Catch any of his latest Trumpberg Rally last night? The usual worship service. I even saw two of his African Americans. That's twice what he had before.
