Tim Scott: ‘I Was Given a Second Chance By This Country’

‘The polarization in this country must be bridged so that we are one nation’

EXCERPT:

SCOTT: "I love Trey because he is — his integrity is unquestioned. What I would say about my passion for politics is it’s a mission. I don’t care about the office I hold, I don't care about the title I have. I was given a second chance by this country. I was given a second chance by voters. I was the guy that was flunking out of high school. When you fail world geography and civics, the study of politics, you don’t go necessarily into politics. But the reality of it was that my teachers, my mother, my mentor all saw something in me that I could not see in myself. And one of the reasons why I’m excited about 'Unified' and my path in politics is because hope is necessary in a toxic world."
