WITH THE PARTICULAR PROBABLY TOMORROW.
TREY: JOINING US NOW IS
LEADER FROM GREAT STATE OF
SOUTH CAROLINA TIM SCOTT.
LITTLE KNOWN FACT, YOUR
MOTHER WANTED YOU TO BE
PREACHER, I WANTED YOU TO
RUN FOR GOVERNOR, YOU ENDED
UP IN SENATE WITH 60
SOMETHING PERCENT OF THE
VOTE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.
I HAVE FORGIVEN YOU, BUT I’M
NOT SURE YOUR MOM HAS.
YOU ARE A LEADER, WHAT ARE
YOU LOOKING FOR IN OTHER
LEADERS?
WHAT ARE THE QUALITIES YOU
WANT TO SEE.
>> THANK YOU, TREY.
I HOPE THAT EVERYONE HAD A
HAPPY THANKSGIVING.
FAITH IN THE FUTURE GIVING
US POWER IN THE PRESENT.
IF WE’RE LOOKING FOR
LEADERSHIP WE WANT
LEADERSHIP THAT HAS A VISION
ON WHO THIS COUNTRY WILL BE,
AND HOW WE’LL GET THERE.
THERE ARE A FEW THINGS WE
NEED TO SEE WITHIN
LEADERSHIP, FIRST IS
OPTIMISM, WE HAVE TO BELIEVE
THAT BEST IS YET TO COME AND
SHOW PEOPLE HOW TO GET
THERE.
ONE THING I HAVE BEEN
BLESSED WITH IS A MISIRABLE
START IN LIFE, NOW I LOOK
BACK AND I KNOW THAT ALL
THINGS ARE POSSIBLE BECAUSE
WE ARE AMERICANS.
AMERICA WE’RE ALWAYS A
SOLUTION, WE’RE NEVER THE
PROBLEM.
SECOND THING IN LEADERSHIP
IS UNDERSTANDING THAT KEY TO
OUR SUCCESS TO VICTORY, IS
NOT POLITICS, NOT THE
GOVERNMENT.
IT IS EDUCATION.
EDUCATION IS THE CLOSEST
THING IN AMERICA TO MAGIC.
HOW DO YOU GET GOOD
EDUCATION?
YOU MAKE SURE THAT EVERY
SINGLE KID AT EVERY SINGLE
ZIP CODE IS EMPOWERED WITH
THAT POWERFUL INGREED END OF
INGREDIENT OF EDUCATION, THE
PARENT NEEDS TO HAVE A
CHOICE TO GIVE THAT CHILD A
CHANCE.
HELP ME UNDERSTAND YOUR
VISION OF A GOOD ECONOMY.
ONE THINGS THAT I UNDERSTAND
AS A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER, A
GOOD START IN LIFE IS HAVING
A JOB.
BUT A BETTER START IS
CREATING JOBS.
UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU ARE
ALWAYS IN CHARGE OF YOUR
ECONOMIC FUTURE IS ANOTHER
ONE OF THOSE KEY
INGREDIENTS, LEADER SHOT
UNDERSTAND INDIVIDUAL
LIBERTY, ECONOMIC DOMINANCE
AND EDUCATIONAL FREEDOM WILL
GET MY ATTENTION AS LONG AS
THEY ARE SPENDING MORE TIME
IN THE FUTURE THAN IN THE
PAST.
TREY: I WANT TO EXPWU A YOU
ABOUT A WORD I HEAR ALL OF
THE TIME, FIGHT.
PEOPLE’ LEADERS THAT WILL
FIGHT.
I WANT A LEADER WHO’LL
THINK.
AND WHO THINK ENOUGH TO KNOW
WHICH FIGHTS ARE WORTH
WAGING.
EVERY FIGHT IS NOT WORTH
WAGING.
I HAVE KNOWN YOU FOR A LONG
TIME.
PEOPLE JUST CANNOT BELIEVE
WHAT A NICE, WHAT A NICE,
KIND PERSON YOU ARE.
I HAVE SEEN THOSE ISSUES
THAT GET YOU WILLING TO
FIGHT.
THIS WORD WE HEAR ALL OF THE
TIME, WHAT DO YOU THINK IT
MEANS, HOW DO YOU HAVE THE
WISDOM TO KNOW WHEN TO PICK
THE RIGHT FIGHT.
>> IF EVERYTHING IS A FIGHT,
THAT MIGHT JUST MEAN YOU ARE
A BULLY.
IF NOTHING IS A FIGHT, IT
MEANS YOU ARE NOT IN THE
GAME.
FROM MY PERSPECTIVE,.
DIFFERENCE WE NEED TO
KNOWING A FIGHTER AND A
WARRIOR.
I CANNOT THINK OF A MORE
IMPORTANT CAUSE OUTSIDE OF
MY FAITH THAN THIS COUNTRY
AND MY FAMILY.
ANYONE WHO COMES TO
INTERFERE WITH MY FAMILY,
THEY WILL MEET A VERY
DIFFERENT TIM SCOTT AT THE
DOOR, ANYONE THAT
DISRESPECTS OUR COUNTRY THEY
WILL FIND A DIFFERENT TIM
SCOTT AT THEIR DOOR.
THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING
YOU ARE WILLING TO LAY DOWN
YOUR LIFE.
IF ALL YOU ARE THINKING
ABOUT IS WINNING, YOU MIGHT
BE ON THE WRONG PAGE.
WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO DIE
FOR AND LIVE FOR, THERE HAVE
TO BE PRINCIPLES.
>> WHAT ARE SOME OF THE
NONOF IN OVER
NON-NEGOTIABLES IN YOUR OWN
LIFE.
I WANT THE VIEWERS -- WHAT
ARE SOME CHARACTERISTICS AND
TRAITS THAT ARE
NONNEGOTIABLES YOU WOULD
RATHER LOSE A THOUSAND TIMES
THAN SACK SACRIFICE, FILL IN
THE BLANK.
>> ONE OF MIGRATE MY --
GREAT TRENDS FRIENDS TAUGHT
ME, VERVEG EVEN JESUS LOST A
VOICE TO BRAND BAR ABAS.
IF YOU WERE NOT GOING TO BE
WILLING TO LAY DOWN YOUR
LIFE FOR YOUR FAITH, YOU ARE
NOT IN THE RIGHT ROOM.
THE QUESTION SHOULD BE ASKED
THOUGH.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN.
MOST OFTEN, IT MEANS LAYING
DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR AMERICANS
THAT YOU HAVE NEVER MET.
THINK ABOUT GREATEST
GENERATION, THE FOLKS WHO
FOUGHT IN WORLD WAR II,
MAKING SURE WE’RE SPEAKING
ENGLISH NOT GERMAN, THOSE
MEN AND WOMEN WENT TO A
FOREIGN LAND TO MAKE SURE
THE WORLD WAS SAVED.
WE REFER TO THEM AS THE
GREATEST GENERATION.
YOU COULD ABOUT SINGLE
MOTHERS WHO GO TO WORK EVERY
DAY, LIKE MY MOTHER, HOPING
AND PRAYING IN AMERICA ALL
THINGS ARE POSSIBLE, FOR THE
POOREST, LEAST AMONG THESE.
WE HAVE PROVEN THAT IS TRUE.
I WOULD BE WILLING TO STAND
IN THE FIRE TO MAKE SURE
THAT EVERY SINGLE CHILD IN
THIS COUNTRY HAS QUALITY
EDUCATION.
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IS THE
GREATEST SOURCE OF
OPPORTUNITY IT IS THE
CLOSEST THING TO A PANACEA
KNOWN IN OUR COUNTRY.
TREY: YOU KNOW SENATOR, I
STARTED BY SAYING YOUR MOM
WANTED A MINISTER OF THE
GOSPEL.
SOUNDS LIKE THAT MIGHT BE
WHAT SHE GOT.
SHE GOT SOMEONE WHO IS NOT
AFRAID TO PREACH IT.
SENATOR TIM SCOTT, IT IS
WEIRD TO ME TO TALK ABOUT
LEADERSHIP QUALITIES WITH
YOU, BECAUSE YOU HAVE MOST
OF THE ONES THAT I’M LOOKING
FOR.
THANK YOU FOR INDULGING US.
I HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT HOL
