In a speech responding to President Joe Biden’s first address to a joint session of Congress, Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) accused the Democratic commander in chief of further dividing the nation, despite promises to the contrary.
“Our president seems like a good man. His speech was full of good words. But President Biden promised you a specific kind of leadership. He promised to unite our nation, to lower the temperature, to govern for all Americans no matter how we voted. This was the pitch. You just heard it again. But our nation is starving for more than empty platitudes,” Scott said on April 28.
