"I've been doing a lot of thinking the past few months," he wrote an email to supporters. "I've been thinking about my faith. I've been thinking about the future of our country. And I've been thinking about the Left's plan to ruin America."Scott said the date of his exploratory committee rollout – April 12– was significant in that it was the day which marked the beginning of the Civil War.
As the only Black Republican in the Senate, Scott said Democrats "weaponize race to divide us to hold on to their power."
