“Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), one of the country’s most prominent Black Republicans, kicked off his presidential campaign here Monday, emphasizing his personal story while also attacking President Biden,” the Washington Post reports.
“Scott’s betting that highlighting his biography, his Christian faith and a more optimistic message than some rivals, combined with significant campaign cash, will be enough to carry him to the Republican nomination. But he begins polling in the single digits against much better-known competitors.”
Said Scott: “I’m living proof that America is the land of opportunity and not the land of oppression.”
Donald Trump welcomed Scott into the race.
