4. What about Sen. Tim Scott and Rep. Byron Donalds?

Are they as well? As was Kamala Harris prior to becoming VP, they too were elected by the people to their current positions. Let us be fair here. For they are the only African-American elected officials the Republicans have at the moment.

No morals, no conviction, just another lying politician
Willing to bow to the ass and cult, what they all tried to get out of.

Dolt 45 will keep his Mini Me VP candidate. Nikki Haley is smarter than he is & might upstage him. No danger of that from the couch molester. One simply does not upstage King Wannabe.
