Could we soon see Vice President Tim Scott on the Donald Trump ticket?
Politics :
It looks like GOP Sen. Scott of South Carolina may be looking for a political upgrade and is hoping to secure the title of Vice President Tim Scott by this November. Scott caught the attention of Republican election watchers when he gave a full-throated endorsement of Donald Trump last Friday. However, that was only the beginning.
On Sunday, Sen. Scott announced that he is engaged. Yes, the lifelong bachelor — who has never once been seen with any woman until he debuted a mystery woman just a few months ago during a debate — says he is finally ready to tie the knot.
The 58-year-old Scott popped the question to Mindy Noce, whom he appears to have been “dating” for a very short time — and she said yes.
“As a guy who is mostly an introvert and on the quiet side, having to have a conversation about the engagement is a little, you know, uncomfortable in a way, but it’s the most exciting thing I’ll do with my life besides making Jesus my Lord,” Scott said on Sunday.
“I’ve been very patient and prayerful, and I’m really excited and somewhat nervous, and I couldn’t be more thankful for having found a soul mate and someone who shares a lot of the same interests, passions, and goals that I do,” he added.
Naturally, inquiring minds are asking the million-dollar question: is it true love, or a political maneuver?
According to Axios, GOP donors have long been concerned about Scott’s marital status which they believe contributed to his ineffectiveness as a political candidate. Additionally, it’s been rumored that Tim Scott may actually be gay and only concocted a “relationship” for political acceptability.
With President Biden running with a Black and Indian vice-presidential candidate, it wouldn’t be a shock to see Donald Trump choose a Black running mate as well.
Could Trump’s desire to “one-up” Mr. Biden lead to a potential Vice President Tim Scott?

Could we be in for a potential Vice President Tim Scott?
DJ, my good man, you must have been reading my mind!
When I saw the news of this sham of a proposal that was the first thing I thought about. Tim wants to be Trump’s VP pick. He knows he’s got to play his Coonery and Bufoonary part in order to even be considered.
And she’s got to be a really good friend to Tim to agree to help him (and Trump) pull off this sham. (pause) I’m joking!
She knows Tim is gay and she may be his good friend. But she’s in it for the money and the power!
Hey Truth. There it is. She wants money and power. And she wants to get inside the White House and be a big shot in the Maga crowd. Everybody is using each other.
Trump would love to split the Black vote. But here’s the thing…
Outside of South Carolina, Tim Scott doesn’t really have any serious level of Black support.
IF Trump ever realizes this obvious Truth, Trump will quickly dismiss Scott as the worthless, gay jigaboo that he is.
This just came out online:
Rep. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), a former presidential candidate and rival of Donald Trump, was heavily mocked online after saying “I just love you” to Trump on Tuesday night.
Scott appeared alongside the former president during his victory speech after the New Hampshire primary, where Trump noted that former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley—the only Republican still in the race against Trump—was responsible for his initial appointment to the Senate.
“You must really hate her,” Trump said about him getting Scott’s endorsement over Haley.
After smiling in the background, Scott then went up to the microphone and interjected: “I just love you!”
Trump responded, “That’s why he’s a great politician.”
Critics quickly seized on the clip of Scott professing his love, calling his actions “disgraceful.”
“Tim Scott. Debasing himself even further by standing behind Trump and cheering every piece of garbage that comes out of his mouth,” wrote one person on X. “Laughing when Trump implies [New Hampshire Gov. Chris] Sununu is on drugs. How disgraceful. Always remember.”
Joe Walsh, the Republican candidate who challenged Trump in 2020, weighed in as well, writing: “There’s Trump up on stage just now lying again & saying that he really won the 2020 election, and there’s Tim Scott up there right behind him laughing & cheering. Pathetic.”
“I hold Tim Scott in contempt, but the depth of self-abasement here is hard to look at,” wrote author Jeff Sharlet.
“Find someone who looks at you the way Tim Scott looks at opportunities to completely humiliate himself,” joked another X user.
“If you ever want to see someone lose all their dignity in the span of 2 minutes, that’s what happened to Tim Scott last night,” wrote someone else.
“That’s some grade A bootlicking, Tim Scott,” commented another person.
Hey Wil, Tim Scott is the ultimate Coon embarrassment to the Black race in America!
He has no shame, no integrity and no manhood. None. Just the closet gay version of Step-N-Fetchit.
And then Trump may have NO intention of choosing Scott at all!?! Just using him primarily to stick it to Nikki Haley moreso than trying to split the Black vote…smh!
Last night while Trump was giving another of his ignorant and unhinged speeches he literally bragged to Tim Scott that Scott owes his senate seat to (then) Gov. Haley.
Trump said to Tim Scott’s face….
Paraphrasing:
“She appointed you to that seat. But now you’ve endorsed me over her. You must really hate Haley.”
Scott just stood there grinning, looking like Buckwheat!
Tim Scott is not fooling anybody with this pretend marriage. And the way he is cooning with Trump is making me sick to my stomach.
