South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott announced Sunday he is suspending his 2024 presidential campaign on an episode of Fox News' 'Sunday Night in America' with Trey Gowdy. 'I think the voters, who are the most remarkable people on the planet, have been really clear that they’re telling me, ‘Not now, Tim,’' Scott said. In addition to ending his campaign, the senator emphasized he has no plans to endorse another candidate in the race for the Republican nomination.
Stuck in the low to mid single digits, Scott's campaign announced it was going 'all in' on Iowa – which leads off the GOP presidential nominating calendar – at the expense of New Hampshire, which holds the first primary and second overall contest in the Republican schedule. In a sign of things to come, the Scott-aligned super PAC late last month canceled its massive ad blitz on behalf of the senator's 2024 campaign.
Scott's announcement came after he canceled a campaign swing over the weekend in Iowa after coming down with the flu. When talking to Trey Gowdy on Sunday night, the senator said he was 'looking forward to getting back on the campaign trail' after recovering from the sickness. He then broke the news that he was suspending his campaign. His departure from the 2024 race comes less than a week after Scott shared he has a girlfriend by the name of Mindy Noce.
