I like what I see when it comes to 2028 when Trump is out of the race.  Regarding Tim Scott in 2024, there are still a lot of people that will simply not vote for a candidate due to the skin color and some people that will vote for a candidate simply based on their skin color.  As such, given the fact that in most states the GOP ethnic makeup consists of 80-90% being white and a lot of the deep south states reflecting up to 95% white population, where we absolutely know racial divide exists, I think think Tim Scott has any chance of winning on 2024 but perhaps he can get some exposure for 2028 and wait for some old fogey racists to die off in the next 5 years.

He won a US Senate race in the state of South Carolina, home of Strom Thurmond, and the first state to secede in the Civil War, so I don't think skin color is gonna be a real problem.

I think he could get something going by differentiating himself from the negativity of Trump and DeSantis and selling a positive message about how his grandfather picked cotton for a living and now he's in the US Senate and that's why he loves America, etc etc.  That's what he did in his Senate race.  I don't recall him ever talking about his opponent in his commercials.  It was all about a positive American story, and how great this country is.

He's losing support from the voters because he turned out to be another RINO swamp creature that SC leadership always makes sure is the republican choice. They are basically controlled by the chamber of commerce side.

Go look at all his latest statements about all the manufactured social issues and you will see he is not a conservative and the fact he comes from the state that Graham is still winning without any real challenges but no support shows he doesn't care about the people.
