Tim Scott "prays" the Trump "Obamas as apes" video was fake (IT WAS NOT) [View all]

WHY does Scott feel the need to "pray" that this is fake? He and Byron Donalds and EVERY OTHER BLACK REPUBLICAN who carried Trump's water and kissed his fat orange ass during the election WALKED AWAY EMPTY HANDED. They received JACK SHIT in return for their groveling and fealty. TRUMP first ran afoul with the law when he and Fred were BUSTED for marking apartment applications from African Americans with a "C" for "COLORED." TRUMP took out a full page ad in the NYT, calling for the execution of the (INNOCENT) Central Park Five. He never retracted his statement or apologized. Exactly WHO is Tim Scott "praying for?"

President Donald Trump used his social media account to share a video about election conspiracy theories that includes a depiction of former President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, as primates in a jungle.

Republican Sen. Tim Scott, who is Black, was among those who criticized the post.

“Praying it was fake because it’s the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House. The President should remove it,” Scott, who chairs Senate Republicans' midterm campaign arm, said on social media.
