WASHINGTON, May 22

Tim Scott, the only Black Republican in the U.S. Senate, formally kicked off his 2024 presidential campaign on Monday, betting his optimistic message will sell in a party in which many voters are still firmly behind former President Donald Trump.

In a speech to supporters in his hometown of North Charleston, South Carolina, he leaned heavily into his personal experience as the single child of a single mother as proof that America remains a nation of opportunity.

“Joe Biden and the radical left are attacking every single rung of the ladder that helped me climb,” he said. — Reuters
