Tim Scott makes a hollow pitch for Republican votes

I used to think Republicans lavished so much love on Black candidates because they were keen to prove that they harbored no racism, Mona Charen writes. But the mask has slipped so often since Trump. Scott claims, “I’m the candidate the left fears the most.” Translation: I’m the Black candidate…
