Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) slammed ABC’s “The View” during a presidential campaign stop over the weekend in Iowa while announcing that he was going on the show this week.

Scott made the remarks during Sen. Joni Ernst’s (R-IA) annual “Roast and Ride” event, where candidates get a chance to meet with voters who are politically engaged and who participate in the state’s GOP presidential caucus. All the major Republican presidential candidates attended the event except former President Donald Trump.

Scott started his speech by giving a short story about socks and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), who is very into socks, before launching his attack on “The View.”

“My socks said ‘hogwash’ on them,” Scott said. “While I think about hogwash, it just makes me think about ‘The View.’”

“Anybody watch ‘The View’ on TV?” Scott asked the audience, which began to boo.

“Good, good. I am in the right place,” he said. “I’m going on ‘The View’ on Monday because I think it’s time for a conservative with a backbone to look those ladies in the eyes and say, ‘You do not have to be an exception to succeed in America; you can be the rule and succeed in America.’”

“You see, I scare the dickens out of the radical Left, and Joe Biden,” he said. “The proof of my life destroys their lies.”

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said during a campaign stop in Iowa over the weekend that as President of the United States, he will shut down the southern border.

DeSantis made the remarks during Sen. Joni Ernst’s (R-IA) annual “Roast and Ride” event, where candidates get a chance to meet with voters who are very politically engaged and who participate in the state’s GOP presidential caucus.

All the major Republican presidential candidates attended the event except former President Donald Trump.

While speaking with voters, DeSantis addressed a variety of key issues that are important to Republican voters, including border security, the U.S. military, and wokeness.

“I’ve heard, as a Republican, talk about this southern border for years and years and years,” DeSantis said. “I will finally be the president to bring this issue to a conclusion. We will shut the border down.”

“We will build a border wall. We will end mass migration into this country,” DeSantis continued. “And we will hold the Mexican drug cartels accountable for the carnage they have unleashed on the American people.”

DeSantis also addressed the issue of wokeness in the U.S. military, saying that if he becomes president, the military will go back to basics on his first day in office.

“I’m proud to have served in the United States Navy and done a tour in Iraq and the people I serve with were honorable, patriotic people,” DeSantis said. “For you veterans in the crowd, thank you for your service. I think all of us have a sense of pride and being able to wear the cloth of your country.”

“But we’ve seen the military become politicized in recent years. You see woke agenda being imposed on it,” he continued. “On day one as commander-in-chief, I rip it all out. We’re getting the military back to basics. We’re going to improve morale, and we’re going to get people to want to join the military again.”
