Speaking at Charleston Southern University, Scott positioned himself as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sen-romney-pretty-certain-trump-would-win-2024-gop-nomination-in-a-landslide\/\" title=\"Sen. Romney \u2018Pretty Certain\u2019 Trump Would Win 2024 GOP Nomination \u2018In A Landslide\u2019\">traditional conservative<\/a> with hope for the future and a clear alternative for Republican voters eager to move past former president Donald Trump. Scott, the only black Republican in the Senate, has held the seat since 2013 and was reelected last year by more than 25 points.<\/p>\n<h3>Scott Joins Crowded Republican Field<\/h3>\n<p>Scott joins an increasingly crowded Republican field that includes Trump and fellow South Carolinian, Nikki Haley. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is also expected to make his run official this week. All three hopefuls lag behind Trump in the polls. A Harvard University poll conducted last week shows Scott polling at just 1 percent, Haley at 4, and DeSantis at 16. Trump, meanwhile, is polling at 58 percent.<\/p>\n<h3>Unique Combination of Optimism and Winning Conservative Policies<\/h3>\n<p>Scott argues that he offers voters a unique combination of optimism and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/tim-scott-says-hes-the-presidential-candidate-the-far-left-fears-the-most\/\" title=\"Tim Scott: 'Far Left's Most Feared Candidate'\">winning conservative policies\u2014<\/a>an alternative to the pessimism and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/composer-john-williams-confirms-lucasfilm-is-shooting-multiple-endings-for-indiana-jones-and-the-dial-of-destiny\/\" title=\"Composer John Williams Confirms Lucasfilm Is Shooting Multiple Endings for \u201cIndiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny\u201d\">culture war politics<\/a> that dominate much of the GOP primary field. Supporters are drawn to Scott&#8217;s ability to work with Trump without trading in the former president&#8217;s particular political style.<\/p>\n<h3>Scott&#8217;s Background and Approval<\/h3>\n<p>Scott&#8217;s background as a man who has lived the American dream is expected to stand out against his rivals. Elon Musk retweeted Scott\u2019s Monday livestream and shared a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/niger-heads-to-polls-in-search-of-first-democratic-transition\/\" title=\"Niger heads to polls in search of first democratic transition\">campaign video<\/a> last week, calling it &#8220;great.&#8221; Scott\u2019s campaign replied with an invitation to Monday\u2019s event, but the billionaire Twitter CEO was a no show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>South Carolina senator, aims to rebuild and restore every rung of the ladder he climbed.
