Tim Scott deflects when asked about Trump's claim he 'nearly escaped death' in FBI raid

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) dodged a question Sunday over former President Trump’s false claims that he was in mortal danger when the FBI raided his Florida home last year, as the South Carolina Republican hopes to join the former president on his November election ticket.

Trump said last week that the FBI was “locked & loaded and ready to take me out” when agents searched his Mar-a-Lago estate for missing classified documents, remarks that were met with quick pushback from the Department of Justice and criticism from Democrats.

Scott didn’t address the language Sunday when asked by CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.” Bash noted that President Biden faced a similar search for classified documents.

“I saw the video of the SWAT team from the FBI raiding Mar-a-Lago. I have not seen the same video of them raiding Joe Biden’s garage, so I’d love to have that comparison,” Scott said. “But more importantly, once again, we find ourselves reinforcing this two-tiered justice system — where we see a different standard for Republicans and specifically a different standard for Donald Trump.”

1. If only he had "nearly escaped death."

[calimary]

2. Yeah you WISH you could have celebrated a SWAT team searching Biden's garage.

Asshole. Every time you wish in vain that Biden had blown it in some way, another angel gets his/her wings.

3. They didn't need to raid Biden's garage because he voluntarily handed over

the small number of classified documents he had and did not engage in convoluted schemes to hide them.

4. He nearly escaped death?

Wasn't he in New York?

[ProfessorGAC]

7. Or New Jersey

And, the feds knew he wasn't at his joint in Florida.
In fact, they probably went there when he wasn't there to assure no conflict with TFG's praetorian guard in the secret service.

5. The term 'Bootlicker' comes to mind

Not a good look Mr. Scott.

6. Oh please. You can't die from

shitting your pants. Die of embarrassment maybe ...
