The following is a transcript of an interview with Sen. Tim Scott, Republican of South Carolina and 2024 GOP presidential hopeful, that aired on 'Face the Nation' on Oct. 8, 2023.
MARGARET BRENNAN: We want to go now to South Carolina Senator and Republican presidential candidate Tim Scott. Welcome back to Face The Nation.SENATOR TIM
Well, if you think about the fact that over the last, I guess year and a half, we've seen a 16% inflation since Joe Biden's taken office, which led to 11 consecutive rate increases, that downward pressure on economy certainly created cracks and fissures throughout the economy. That was caused by Joe Biden's lack of leadership and understanding of how to create jobs in America. The first quarter of this year, we saw our- growth of our economy at one percent.
Well, you have until November the 17 to figure that out, Margaret. I will say without any question, the road to socialism runs right through a divided Republican Party. When you have 221 members of the party in the House, you need 218 to choose a speaker. One of the things they should do is go behind closed doors. Let's figure this out in advance.
Well Margaret, one of the things that we saw in the last aid package that was absolutely missing, was only four billion dollars to finish the construction of the wall, five billion dollars to use the available military- military grade technology to surveil our border, to stop 70,000 Americans from losing their lives in the next 12 months, because we saw that in the last 12 months.
Well, we have. I mean, frankly, the fact of the matter is that Joe Biden has left our southern border wide open on purpose. It was intentional. He has not lifted a finger to do anything other than literally sell off the construction material for the wall. That tells us exactly how he feels about it. It's the mayor, the mayor of- Mayor Adams of New York City, Governor Hochul, that has brought this attention to him, because there's an election cycle coming up.
Well, number one, I have no idea what Jim Jordan knew or didn't know. I have no idea what Liz Cheney has said or has facts towards. I'm gonna focus on the things that I actually know something about. And what I know is that preserving the American Dream for the next generation is why I'm running for president. So I will focus on restoring hope, creating opportunities and protecting the America that we love.
