Tim Scott is the 2024 frontrunner

It is admittedly a little early to be placing bets on the 2024 presidential election, but the astonishing and almost unprecedented success of South Carolina Republican senator Tim Scott’s response to President Biden’s address to Congress has catapulted him forward among the ranks of Republican contenders, should President Trump decide not to enter the race. As the Democrats bill and coo and preen themselves, egged on by practically the entire national political media, which conducted the party’s presidential campaign in the absence and incomprehensibility of their putative candidates for national office, their position is very vulnerable. They are flying in the face of polls that report that an overwhelming majority of Americans want a compassionate but efficiently administered process of entry into the country and no significant numbers of illegal entries, and of polls that oppose violent demonstrations whatever their objective, oppose reduced funding for police, and favor photo identification for federal-election voters... In the sweepstakes for what should be the much sought-after and very promising Republican presidential nomination in 2024, President Trump runs first if he wants it, but he will still be carrying a good deal of baggage. Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis, Texas’s Governor Greg Abbott, and senators Tom Cotton (Arkansas) and Josh Hawley (Missouri) are the most obvious candidates. But Scott has demonstrated that he has the ability, as no one else does (as an African American), to reduce the entire Democratic campaign to a shambles of gaslit name-calling and cringeworthy apologia. They demonstrated that they had no response to Scott’s claims, and the response they attempted was so feeble and false that not even the big-media Democratic propaganda machine could keep it up for more than a few hours. Senator Scott exposed the Democrats in their ghastly moral infirmity.
