"They even called me the n word." - Sen Tom Scott, in like a thousand ads this weekend.
- “Lie down with racist leopards, get your face eaten.” -Michael Scott, probably
  
  Well, at least he took a shot...
Mark my words, Chris Christie will be the last holdout in the primaries I guarantee you. He knows Trump is going to get convicted and is banking on slipping in as the only viable alternative in Q3 of next year.
- I'd prefer Haley if we had to end up with a Republican. She at least seems to understand geopolitics and the failing stance of being staunchly anti-abortion more than Christie.
  She tows the party line, I think, mostly because she has to, but is more sensible (for a Republican) on many issues.
  
  Nimarata Is way too brown to get the vote
He probably just wants to spend more time with his girlfriend, who is 100% not fictional.
- You wouldn’t know her, she lives in Canada
Bye Token
To Republicans, he never would have been more than a useful idiot.
So long, Uncle Tim.
He couldn't gain enough support from the party he is campaigning against or against his own, often racist, party? Shhhhhhocker.
- he said that he was the candidate libzzzzzzz were scared of.
  Remember when GOP candidates ran on such tag lines like "I'm a uniter, not a divider". That guy even got two presidential terms. It seems almost quaint now that a GOP candidate would boast about actually working with the other side to govern the country.
  
  They can't even work with their own damn party. They stand for nothing
unsurprising, I don't think he ever knew he was running
The SAG-AFTRA strike ended and his girlfriend had to get back to work.
Tim Scott: "I'm ending my campaign for the Republican presidential nominee."
Literally everyone:
- Everyone on that stage is running for second place Republican. Which will be third place overall.
  The whole thing is a waste of everyone's time.
  
  It's insane that people would vote for someone who is too cowardly to even answer softball questions from his own propaganda network on a stage of suck-ups.
But who will get his supporter?
- Theres dozen of us!
Goodbye, uncle Tom
Congratulations to South Carolina on being the first state to elect two gay Senators.
I appreciate that he tried to claim the gay slander was because he was black when being gay is a much bigger issue to them
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Senator Tim Scott suspended his run for the 2024 Republican presidential election nomination on Sunday after months of burning through campaign cash at a blistering rate without making a significant dent in national opinion polls.
The lone Black Republican in the U.S. Senate, Scott began his campaign in May, promising to present an optimistic, forward-looking vision for America.
While Scott, who is from South Carolina, enjoyed a modest, but measurable bump in opinion polls in some states over the summer, voter excitement proved short-lived.
Many major donors supported him, in part because they believed he would have a high chance of beating Democratic President Joe Biden if he were to emerge as the Republican nominee.
Ambassador Nikki Haley, who is also from South Carolina, received plaudits from voters and donors for her combative performance.
Scott shifted tactics in the fall months and began adopting more confrontational rhetoric toward both Democrats and other Republican contenders.
The original article contains 434 words, the summary contains 154 words. Saved 65%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
- Faces very filling apparently
Chris Crispy is the remaining Republican dark horse.
- The only one who gets real interviews because he is the only one who is coherent.
Who?
He’d have better luck if he put on whiteface.
