Things are looking up for Sen. Tim Scott in his bid for the White House. According to The Hill, he raised an impressive $1 million for his presidential campaign in just 24 hours, giving his chances of getting into the Oval Office a much needed boost in polling.
While Scott enjoyed a positive reception in Iowa after announcing his relationship with “a lovely Christian girl,” he still has to prove himself at the upcoming debate in Simi Valley, California. His campaign spokesperson, Matt Gorman, said in a statement that Scott intends to draw distinctions between himself and his opponents by focusing on policy outlooks. “Tim looks forward to being back on the debate stage to draw the serious policy distinctions between the candidates,” Gorman said. “Whether it be the economy, parental rights, or his vision for the country, Tim is prepared to have a conversation with voters, be the adult in the room, and demonstrate why he is the strongest candidate to beat Joe Biden.”
To further secure his spot in the debate, Scott's campaign manager, Jennifer DeCasper, sent out a memo to potential donors ahead of the second debate. She pointed out polls showing Scott having “the best net favorability score among the candidates — regardless of the state.” DeCasper urged supporters to “ignore the noise” and focus on the facts. “I’d encourage you to remember that these nights are merely a single moment in time. Any candidate who hopes to truly capitalize on it must be disciplined and built for the long haul.”
Fortunately for Scott and his fellow candidates, Republican head honcho Donald Trump is reportedly skipping the second debate on Sept. 27 to speak in front of union workers in Detroit regarding talks of a major autoworkers strike. This gives Scott more opportunity to make a lasting impression on the audience and secure his spot in the Oval Office.
