Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) weighed in on the war-of-words between former President Donald Trump and Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), noting that Trump has the most sway of any political figure in the United States.
“I still believe that President Trump is the most powerful political figure on either side,” Scott told Fox News on Wednesday. “The news loves President Trump, or they hate President Trump, which gives him plenty of coverage. What we need, in fact, is a unified message from the Republican Party. We don’t need personalities driving your future. The policy positions of President Trump led to the lowest unemployment rates for African-Americans, Hispanics, Asians, for women in 70 years.”
