He wants “4 more years”. Black American senator Tim Scott, who was briefly a candidate in the Republican primary, supported ultra-favorite Donald Trump against his rival Nikki Haley.

The influential senator from South Carolina, the state of which Nikki Haley was governor, formalized his support during a campaign rally of the former president Friday evening in New Hampshire, a small state in the northeast which will vote on Tuesday in the Republican primaries.

Potential vice president?

Tim Scott, a conservative Christian who dreamed of becoming the first black Republican president in US history, withdrew from the race last November without ever getting his campaign off the ground.

With her back to the wall facing the former president, ultra-favorite, Nikki Haley set herself up this week as a bulwark against the “chaos” that according to her a new presidency of Donald Trump, like Joe Biden, would represent.

The only woman on the right to run for the White House, Nikki Haley, former UN ambassador under President Trump, is forced to achieve a very good result in New Hampshire on Tuesday if she wants to shake up the former president after his triumph during the January 15 primaries in Iowa. The Republican primaries in South Carolina will take place on February 24.

Tim Scott is one of half a dozen favorites to be chosen by Donald Trump as his vice-presidential candidate. There are faithful ones, like New York elected official Elise Stefanik, South Dakota governor Kristi Noem or entrepreneur and ex-candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. But Donald Trump could choose to open towards the moderate wing of the party, with Tim Scott, or even Nikki Haley.
