Tim Scott dodge on accepting election results sends 'very chilling signal': Miles Taylor
Miles Taylor, former chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security, said Sunday that Sen. Tim Scotts (R-S.C.) interview in which he dodged repeatedly on whether he would accept the election results in 2024 sends a very chilling signal ahead of the November election.

Well, the hesitation, the faltering in his voice: Its an audition. Hes auditioning, and he was thrown a question by the casting directors that he didnt expect, Taylor said. And I think this is something that is sending a very chilling signal.
Taylor later added, Im very personally disappointed in some of these members of Congress who Ive known, like Tim Scott and Elise Stefanik, and others who are hewing to this line to get close to Trump. Its taken something that we thought was a threat to democracy from one man, and its extrapolated it through the upper ranks of the entire party.

Taylor said he was concerned about the similarities in Scotts rhetoric to Trumps remarks ahead of the 2020 presidential election, when Trump hinted repeatedly that he would not accept the election results if he lost.
