GOP Donors Question Tim Scott's Relationship Status, Pointing to His Single Status as Potential Liability with Evangelicals

Republican donors are concerned that presidential candidate Tim Scott is unmarried at 57 and question if his claimed girlfriend really exists.

There's no evidence Scott is gay, but some see his bachelor status as a way to subtly undermine him with evangelical voters.

Scott suggests criticism about his relationship status is a "different form of discrimination." He says past family issues led him to "run toward purpose" instead.

Iowa voters don't seem to mind Scott is single, just that he supports policies like a nationwide abortion ban.

Matt Schlapp accused Scott of being gay, despite being married himself and facing groping allegations, showing the rumor mill's laziness.
