Keywords

💡lie

The speaker repeatedly accuses Senator Tim Scott of lying in his interview on Fox News. The speaker provides examples from the transcript to contradict and disprove Scott's claims that Trump did more for minorities than Biden. This highlights the speaker's view that Scott is deliberately spreading misinformation to support Trump and the Republican agenda.

💡Fox News

Fox News is referenced multiple times as the platform where Senator Scott made his controversial claims. The speaker implies that Scott chose Fox News because they would not fact check him or challenge the lies. This furthers the narrative that right-wing media facilitates the spread of misinformation.

💡Republican

The speaker associates Senator Scott and his actions with the Republican party more broadly. At the end, the speaker claims Republicans "don't traffic in truth" but rather spread narratives that support their agenda. This frames Scott's lying as representative of wider Republican misinformation tactics.

💡embarrassing

The speaker describes Scott's interview and defense of Trump as "embarrassing" several times. This suggests Scott has debased himself and lost credibility by so vehemently supporting someone as reprehensible as Trump just for political gain.

💡opportunity zones

The speaker strongly rebuts Scott's claim that opportunity zones are "the greatest anti-poverty program in history." He cites his own failed attempts to get data from the White House on their impact. This highlights supposed Republican programs that are touted as helping minorities but lack evidence.

lie and that's what's so ging Senator

Tim

Scott and I had you on the show before

we had cordial

conversations when you challenge me to

have a discussion a whole show dedicated

to education I said

when you want to do it y'all was so

funny his staff thought I was joking oh

they said well s he just he just threw

it out there I said no he didn't think I

was going to accept I made him come back

for a whole hour discussion on public

education see sen temp Scott can't do

that stuff with me not when I'm the

founder of school choice is the black

Choice see I understand Charter Schools

I understand school choice I also

understand fraudulent scam programs

like the voucher bill in

Texas like the one in

Tennessee see it's a little hard to have

that conversation with me when your

brother and your sister and your other

sister have been teachers see it's a

little hard to do that

because you can't threaten that little

teacher Union crap out to me and think

I'mma jump I'mma bite on it n it don't

work but s Tim Scott don't

lie but said about HBC using Trump is a

flat out balac undeniable easily proven

lie and you know it and the fact that

you will go on Fox News and KN only lie

tells me you ain't no different and the

man you stood up there and said I love

you I love you

Donald

Rey well I think that um obviously Tim

Scott like all Republicans don't traffic

in the truth they traffic in whatever

narrative they think is going to win

them that conversation I think Tim Scott

is feeling a little bit of heat and

maybe a little bit embarrassed for the

way he debased himself multiple times

now with this buffoonish minstral like

performance that he puts on to show his

filty to Donald Trump I mean the eyes

bulging appropriating fan L HR it's

disgraceful and it's embarrassing and

he's going to piss a lot of black people

off being a for Trump I mean have some

damn dignity sir you are a freaking US

senator and you're sitting up there

acting like the male version of diamond

and silk to try to get on that VP ticket

but I think that he is graveling all for

not because Donald Trump already said

you stab nicken the back even though she

gave you the US senate seat and he is

not going to put somebody that he thinks

is disloyal as his number two like he

felt about Mike Pence and so all of this

is just really a really really

embarrassing audition and he's hurting

his credibility he used to be somebody

that people at least somewhat considered

uh more of a reasonable Republican but

this turn that he's taken which is

always his truth willing to shield for

the Republican party and for white

supremacy it's just it's beneath him and

and that takes a lot for me to say

because I already think very lowly of

Republicans generally but this even for

you is Beneath You Tim Scott man up

Lawrence yeah I mean

perfected he perfected three uh

stereotypes in one moment it's actually

pretty impressive he did the magical

negro he did the special black

friend uh I mean Harry harod beer St

would be very proud of the performance

by Tim Scott in this last week and the

lack of self-awareness there is pretty

amazing I actually think that he does

have in fact a complete lack of

self-awareness and you know as somebody

who's met him and talked to him a few

times he seems like a perfectly nice guy

but I cannot imagine that somebody from

his office did not call him or somebody

from his family did not call him after

that uh what we saw last week because it

was pretty stunning not to realize what

you look like in front of the nation to

somebody who has said that who who has

attacked uh your colleagues like um

Maxine Waters and certainly uh several

other black members of Congress uh has

has referred to uh Baltimore as an

and African countries as an

and then said that Mexicans were

murderers and rapists I mean this is the

person that Tim Scott wants to be uh

vice president to this is the person

that he looked at and said that he loved

I mean it is incredibly embarrassing on

on a level that is beyond menstrual see

the the and the idea that a uh as reei

just said a US senator would would just

embarrass himself like this is even

beyond what we're typically used to when

we see people uh kissing Donald Trump's

ass right in front of everybody uh but I

think it's particularly uh embarrassing

we consider who Donald Trump is you know

if this was George W or George HW or

Ronald Reagan yeah it would be terrible

but Donald Trump really Tim Scott this

is who you want to be the vice president

to now I would like to think that he's

got some McKellan plan in his head that

maybe Trump is going to be thrown out of

office should he be elected again or

that he could possibly become president

should he be his vice president but I

actually don't think Tim Scott's that

deep of a thinker uh I just think that

he's just some dude from South Carolina

but man that was that was unbelievably

unbelievably embarrassing what we saw

this week quick

that was that was that was a beautiful

uh not even a takedown cuz you didn't do

it it wasn't mean spirited Lauren that

was just beautiful yeah I can see that

on C-Span instead of

r-sc for Senator Scott when he speaks uh

Tim Scott pen just some dude from South

Carolina close Pin because I think

that's I mean because that I think that

that that frames it perfectly I mean Tim

Scott is a is an incredible blend an

alloy of political ambition

and complete and utter what did uh the

brother Dartmouth je Charlotte say the

other day naked

self-abasement book had an excuse book T

waston had an excuse he had felt the

Lash he came out of slavery and book D

waston never abased himself personally

he yeah he kiked for the money from the

white folk from the carnegies and the

and the Ballwin and the railroad people

and he used it for Tuskegee and to run

his Tuskegee machine and ultimately

improved the lives of a number of black

people and pissed off people like Monro

trer and Ida Wells and and and and WB de

Boyce but but there was a political

thing and there there was an excuse you

came out of slavery Tim Scott didn't

come out of slavery he comes out of you

know humble beginnings but this is a man

who exhibits all of the deep self

hatreds that Mark the psychological

wounds of African people in the

Contemporary era you combine that with

his political his neaked political

ambition I mean as we say we can talk to

Cory Booker about that uh bill in 2021

where they work together and Scott tells

him hey man if you can get the fop on

board and these police Chiefs or or get

a couple of police back we'll do that

and then Cory Booker gets out gets gets

the paternal Lord of police and the IAC

of P the the international Chiefs of

police to sign on to this reform

legislation that still didn't have

qualified Immunity on it what do Tim

Scott do he leaks the damn draft of the

bill to the Sheriff's Association to

give him cover to tank it why because he

think one day he gonna be president this

fool this handmaiden uh this this this

fool and so finally you know Al Sharpton

was right today to say he's humiliating

the man is humiliated himself and when

you talk about that level of naked

self-abasement standing out with your

loafers on the beach of Kia island in

the sea Islands on one knee trying to

somehow convince people that you're

somebody you're

not all thinking that somehow that's

gonna make them pick you as these young

people with he's not being extra he's

doing the most at this point I don't

know how he look in the

mirror real simple if you lie I'm going

to call you out on it and Senator Tim

Scott you flat out lied you lied when

you went on Fox News pure and simple now

again chairs

open I got one chair I got a chair right

in the comfortable living room sou side

over there on one of the

couches but you want to talk about black

people cuz trust me Laura Ingram she
