NBC News reports:
Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, a Republican presidential candidate, suggested at a Thursday campaign stop in New Hampshire that recent headlines about his relationship status were the result of his opponents’ planting stories.
Scott’s relationship status garnered renewed interest last week, when Axios published an article suggesting some conservative Republican donors were concerned about his unmarried status.
“People plant stories that have conversations to distract from our rise in the polls, to distract from our size of our audience,” Scott said. “What we’ve seen is that poll after poll says that the voters don’t care, but it seems like opponents do care, and so media coverage that opponents plant — it’s OK. Good news is we just keep fighting the good fight.”
Read the full article. Last week I noted here that the cult has been spreading rumors that Scott is gay. Scott has preached for abstinence before marriage and earlier this year dodged a Washington Post question over whether he remains a virgin.
Since entering public office in 1995, Scott has never publicly dated, a fact that has distinguished him from many of his colleagues and political opponents. https://t.co/eWzyyaDh87
