Sen. Tim Scott to Biden: Grow a Backbone, Stand With Israel

Republican Senator Tim Scott slams President Biden for his weak stance on Israel's conflict with Hamas, calling on him to "find a spine and a backbone" in support of America's allies.
Republican Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina has unleashed a fiery criticism of President Joe Biden, urging him to demonstrate stronger support for Israel and condemning his failure to provide a robust defense of America's allies. Speaking on "Hannity" on Monday, Scott lambasted Biden's limp response to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, accusing him of lacking the fortitude and determination required of a leader.
"President Biden: find a spine and a backbone," Scott declared. "Stand for our allies. Be loyal to our allies and be lethal to our collective adversaries."
Scott's rebuke of Biden comes amidst increasing scrutiny over the president's handling of the Israel-Hamas conflict. Critics have charged that Biden has failed to provide sufficient support for Israel, which has been subjected to a barrage of rocket attacks from Hamas in recent days.
Scott, who is considered a potential running mate for former President Donald Trump in 2024, has emerged as a vocal advocate for Israel. He has repeatedly condemned Hamas's aggression and called on the Biden administration to take a more assertive stance against the terrorist organization.
"We must stand with Israel," Scott said. "They are our ally, and we must support them in their fight against terrorism."
Scott's call for Biden to demonstrate stronger leadership on Israel reflects a growing sentiment among Republican lawmakers. Many GOP members have criticized Biden for failing to take a more forceful approach to the conflict, which has escalated into one of the deadliest rounds of fighting between Israel and Hamas in years.
In addition to his criticism of Biden's posture toward Israel, Scott also addressed the issue of Black voters and the Republican Party. In recent years, Republicans have made significant gains among Black voters, with Scott himself being credited with playing a key role in this shift.
Scott attributed the increasing support for Republicans among Black voters to the policies of former President Trump, who he said has championed policies that have benefited Black Americans. Scott pointed to the low unemployment rates and rising wages under Trump as evidence of his positive impact on the Black community.
"Black voters are starting to wake up to the fact that the Republican Party is the party of opportunity," Scott said. "We are the party that is fighting for policies that will help all Americans, regardless of race or background."
Scott's remarks on "Hannity" underscore the growing divide between the Republican and Democratic parties on a range of issues, including foreign policy and domestic priorities. As the 2024 presidential election approaches, the battle for the hearts and minds of Black voters is likely to be a central focus of both parties. With his strong support for Israel and his appeal to Black Americans, Tim Scott could emerge as a pivotal figure in this contest.
