“JoyVBehar told me I don’t know what it’s like to be black,” SenatorTimScott said during a speech in DC. “[I'd] like to go on that show and have a conversation with them...because I got to say, their comments were offensive and dangerous and disgusting.'
Scott took the stage Friday during the Faith and Freedom Coalition's"Road to Majority" conference to echo his previous reactions to what others have to say about Scott being a black GOP senator. The South Carolina senator combined his comments toward former President Barack Obama and The View host Joy Behar into one speech.“Joy Behar told me I don’t know what it’s like to be black,” Scott said during a speech in Washington, D.C.
Scott was the first Republican candidate to appear on the talk show and condemned the commentary during his appearance. Behar was not present in the studio that day."Then, President Obama decided to jump in as well," Scott continued."I have been accused of being too optimistic. Too positive. Too proud to be an American. For those accounts, I am guilty! Guilty as charged. I love America. I love our country.
