Tim Scott slams 'Uncle Tim' label as hypocritical bigotry
Fox News
Sen. Tim Scott, who delivered the Republican response to President Biden’s address to Congress, said Sunday that “America is not a racist country,” and as both sides of the aisle negotiate police reform at the federal level on Capitol Hill, the goal “isn't for Republicans or Democrats to win, but for communities to feel safer and our officers to feel respected.”
"I personally understand the pain of being stopped 18 times driving while Black," Scott said, arguing he brings an "equilibrium" to the conversation. "I also have seen the beauty of when officers go door to door with me on Christmas morning delivering presents to kids in the most underserved communities." "America is not a racist country," he affirmed, arguing that Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and one of the leaders in the House Democrat caucus, Rep. Jim Clyburn, from South Carolina, also agreed.More Related News
