Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) called on Americans to look at the pandemic through a 'prism of optimism.'
Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) told Fox News on Wednesday that he "smells the stench of politics" in the decision-making of Democratic governors who have resisted reopening their states before coronavirus guidelines say it's safe to do so.
Echoing other Republicans who have advanced baseless conspiracy theories, Scott said the governors were acting in order to influence "election results" and not out of concern for public health and safety.
Scott also argued that the public should look at the pandemic, which has killed over 82,300 Americans, through a "prism of optimism."
Experts have repeatedly warned about reopening states before the data shows conditions are safe enough. In testimony before the Senate on Tuesday, at which Scott was in attendance as a member of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, Dr. Anthony Fauci said reopening states too early could lead to "spikes that might turn into outbreaks."

I am equally amazed at Jewish People I know that defame Obama because he is Black...and worship Trump, his RepubliCON party, and their White Supremacist buddies???? Did they Learn Nothing From Their Past Relatives????????????????????? I often point out to them, that their Black hating friends, hate jews even more than Blacks or Mexicans......WTF

Relive their golden age of shitting on Obama, maybe too soon? But this is clearly to smear his V.P. Biden.
Helped by the media being what 90% in the hands of GOP whatevers?
Dennis Leary should do a part 2, and probably cut a 12" both sides cut with so much material?
Trump and the Insane Clown Pussy Grabbers Association probably can't make it to November with this obvious con attempt of the American Political System?
How many more dumb theories by November 1st?
Lowball guessing the number of C-19 caused deaths, again and again, not even close?
