A senator from this state was seen sucking up to President Trump/Putin at the Republican luncheon at the White House last week. Here is a man who has done absolutely nothing for South Carolina sitting next to a president with record-low approval ratings and totally supporting a Republican health-care bill that has a 12 percent approval rating. Way to go Sen. Tim Scott.

And he has the nerve to ask for donations for re-election. Well, if you are going to dream, you might as well dream big. I wish him good luck in his next career.
