Remember this as Tim Scott delivers the response to President Biden. [View all]

Tim Scott is nothing but an opportunist. He desperately wanted to be in politics and he didn’t care which side he was on. He believes in nothing. He’s a hired stooge.

He visited the local Democratic Party headquarters to tell them he was interested in running for [an open Charleston City Council seat]. "They told me to get in line," Scott laughs. He went straight to the GOP headquarters. "They said, 'You probably won't win, but heck we'd love to see you run.'" And just like that, Scott was a Republican.
