South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott announced on Sunday that he was ending his campaign for the GOP presidential nomination after months of struggling to gain ground in polling.
Scott, who focused his campaign on an uplifting message about his success in vaulting from poverty to political power and providing a “happy warrior” in the White House, told Trey Gowdy, a former representative from South Carolina and longtime friend of Scott’s, that he was quitting the campaign trail. He did not endorse any other candidate.
