Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) finds himself in a delicate balancing act as he navigates questions about former President Donald Trump's controversial statements and actions, including claims of narrowly escaping death during an FBI raid and being booed by Libertarians.
Despite these controversies, Scott suggests Trump's popularity is on the rise, citing a 'wave of red hats' as evidence.
