Tim Scott: Biased Lawfare Pushes Black Voters to Trump

Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) argues that the very trials meant by Democrats to bankrupt and destroy Donald Trump are more likely to inspire black Americans to switch allegiance to Trump and the GOP.

As Trump sat in a New York courtroom yet again, thanks to criminal charges from Soros-tied, anti-Trump leftist DA Alvin Bragg, Sen. Scott critiqued the Democrat lawfare but also foresaw a hopeful result from it. “There’s no doubt that when you see a nearly 75 percent increase in black men wanting to support President Trump, that’s not an insignificant increase,” Scott said in comments to Breitbart News. “That is a gargantuan step in the right direction. Why? Because the Democrat stronghold on power is being broken by people who say, ‘This isn’t fair, and I want an America that is fair, and if they do it to him, they will do it to me.’” Black Americans want an unbiased justice system, and they are seeing the opposite from Democrats, according to Scott, who accused the Democrats of “election engineering.”

We’re talking about a 300 percent improvement. This is all the case not simply because of the desire for a strong, powerful, fair justice system, but when you ask the age-old question of, ‘Am I better off under four years of Trump or better off under four years of Biden?’ the answer is unequivocal economically better off under Trump.”

There were many positives under Trump that voters know they don’t have under Dementia Joe Biden. “Our country was better off in terms of safety under Trump. Fentanyl that’s ravaging communities — better off under Trump. There’s no statistic that matters to people—black people, white people, Asians, Hispanics, women, or men—there’s no statistic where you’re not better off under Trump than under Biden,” Scott added.

The New York trial began on Monday with jury selection — and reportedly with biased exclusion of some potential jurors — while Trump was threatened with arrest if he took time off the trial to go to his son’s high school graduation. Scott labeled Judge Juan Merchan’s refusal to rule on a motion to allow Trump to attend the graduation “simply wrong, ridiculous, and un-American …
