While the candidates compete for major endorsements, Tim Scott got off to an early start, picking up the support of fellow Senator John Thune. Senator Thune (R-SD) joins to discuss why he is backing Senator Scott for president, how he shapes up compared to former President Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and the policies he believes Senator Scott can push if given the power of the Oval Office.
