Trump's relationship with Tim Scott reached a turning point during the Charlottesville meeting, as Scott recounts, "He said, 'Help me.'"
On 'Fox & Friends', Scott and Mindy Noce deliberate on the choice of Vice President.
Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., disclosed the pivotal moment in his relationship with former President Trump, stating that their conversation about his handling of the 2017 Charlottesville "Unite the Right" rally led to their current relationship.
In an exclusive interview with "Fox & Friends" host Ainsley Earhardt on Thursday, you mentioned that he had compromised his moral authority over the handling of the Charlottesville rally.
He stated that the Charlottesville incident was the reason for our current relationship.
"President Trump invited me to the Oval Office to discuss race relations in America and to share my perspective. He listened intently and, after our conversation, he expressed a desire to make amends for any offenses he may have committed. This led to the creation of Opportunity Zones, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have worked with the president to find solutions together during a challenging time in history."
Scott sat with his fiancée, Mindy, on Planet Chronicle to discuss the possibility of becoming vice president, how they handle public scrutiny, and their "heaven-sent" love story.
Scott would be the first Black Republican vice president if chosen, as noted by Earhardt.
"He said that it's exciting regardless of the result, and it's a testament to the evolution of the Southern spirit. As Southerners, we often feel overlooked for the progress we've made. The idea of evaluating people based on their character rather than their skin color has become a reality."
"It won't occur. It's not imminent. It's in the past," he stated. "We are living out Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision."
In August, Scott and Mindy, who were set up on a pickleball date by church friends earlier this year, plan to get married.
"I felt a wave of emotion hit me like a ton of bricks while on my knees, and I thought, 'I want to spend the rest of my life with this woman.' It was a blessing," Scott stated.
An interior designer in South Carolina, Mindy, grew up in a military family with a father in the Navy and brothers who attended military school. Scott highlighted her "loyalty" to both her faith and the country.
Earhardt inquired about how she assists in readying him for political endeavors.
Being a good listener is something I take pride in, and I'll pray a lot for him. I believe my role is to be a prayer warrior, support him, listen to him, and love on him.
Trump may reveal his vice presidential running mate this week, ahead of schedule, before the CNN Presidential Debate on Thursday in Atlanta.
Alongside Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, Scott is reportedly on his shortlist.
Earhardt inquired about Scott's level of desire to be Trump's vice president.
He stated that he deeply desired to fulfill the mission assigned to him by God and that he would do whatever position it required to achieve that goal on behalf of the American people, every day.
On Friday at 6 a.m. ET, tune in to "Fox & Friends" to hear an interview with Gov. Doug Burgum, R-N.D., and his wife, Kathryn, as they discuss their potential role as Trump's VP pick.
