You're right. Tim Scott voters probably hate Trump. He would be drawing from some of the potential Desantis voters
Poor Tim Scott. Future Trump: “I don’t know Tim. He came to my office begging to be included in the tax act. He come up with the community opportunity tax zones. It was a complete failure. One of the worst ideas.” U.S. Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina
South Carolina is an early primary and both he and Nikki Haley will likely be on the ballot. That has to factor into the strategy somehow. Someone smarter than me will figure it out. But I would imagine that it's going to hurt one of the two frontrunners, but I can't figure out which.
Haley is DOA. Scott will be a player. I have no love for him because I’m not a conservative. But he’s sane. He doesn’t shake me to the core.
