South Carolina Senator and 2024 presidential candidate Tim Scott fired back at the ladies of The View on Fox News Monday night after they accused him of having “Clarence Thomas syndrome.”
Scott says his story disproves the left’s lies.
From Fox News:
Goldberg’s co-host Sunny Hostin further claimed one of Scott’s “issues” is that he believes because he “made it” coming from an impoverished Black family in the South, “everyone can make it.”
Scott told Fox News that Hostin had it backward when she claimed his story is “the exception, not the rule.”
“Meekness is not weakness. I believe in the Gospel. I believe Matthew 5:44 says ‘Love your enemies’ — [but] if you break in my house, I also believe in the Second Amendment’,” Scott told host Trey Gowdy, a fellow South Carolinian.
“We have to ignore the far left by disproving their lies by our actions. Here’s the funny thing: The host, Sunny, she wants to be judged by the content of her character, not the color of her skin. The fact of the matter is America is a story of evolution – a never told story of evolution in too many of our schools that are indoctrinating our kids instead of educating our kids.”
Scott said he is the rule, not the exception, in that every American child matriculating through a failing public school can look to left-wing teachers unions as the reason they are not getting a proper education.
“Every parent who wants a choice. Look to the Republican Party. Look to the GOP, but more importantly, look at Americans, African-Americans, Hispanic Americans – the majority of Americans all agree on school choice,” he said.
…
In response to the overall tenor of response from his critics, Scott said there is “no question my life disproves the lies of the radical left” and their “culture of victimhood is eating away at the soul of America.”
