I have until 6pm eastern. Trump is now 15 minutes late and counting. So we'll see how much of this I end up being to watch after all.
TIM SCOTT: Under Joe Biden, communities have been devastated and ravaged by a wave of violent crime that we haven't seen in 5 decades
JONATHAN KARL: Actually senator, as you probably know, the latest stats on violent crime and on the murder rate show they're actually down this past year
JONATHAN KARL: Would you now favor Congress acting to ban bumpstocks? You said after the Vegas shooting that if the vote came up, it would sail through Congress.
TIM SCOTT: Well, I'm strongly in support of the 2nd amendment.
KARL: I asked about bumpstocks, not the 2nd amendment.
SCOTT: We're gonna focus on the priorities of the American people, and what the priorities of the American people are today is to focus on closing our southern border.
KARL: Trump floated the idea of raising tariffs. By some calculations, it's a 70% across the board tax on everything imported into the country. Would you favor a policy like that?
TIM SCOTT: Well Jon, I wasn't in that House meeting, I was in the Senate meeting. But what I can tell you is he talked about actually exempting taxation on tips.
